Seems that a trend from a couple of years ago is back in action: TOOTH JEWELRY. The video below shows a patient receiving a tooth jewel.
Hey, to each his/her own with respect to how you spend your money. I actually know several people who have tooth jewelry and love it. The reason I include this video in TheDentalGeek.com is because of the observations I made while watching it.
- A nice white girl in a nice white practice with a nice white reporter – all very white, even the teeth and the jewelry.
- Listen to how the reporter and dentist incorporate “hip-hop” language during the interview.
- The reporter is using this segment for her “health edge reporting” Really? While at that dentist’s office, she couldn’t ask about periodontal disease or gingivitis?
- For any former braces wearers, why would you ever want to put something back on your teeth that would: attract food, need special care, have the ability to cut/scrape your lip? Not for me!
Just sayin’.
