Are GenZ and Millennials Living in Urban Areas Running to "Basement Dentists" to Save Money?

HOUSTON - OhioPen -- From BBLs now to veneers, both generation Z and Millenials are trusting "basement dentists' ' to get cosmetic dental surgery done by unaccredited professionals. Teeth whitening and Veneer application have been the top procedures that are causing harm to speech and health. Cheron K. Griffin, Registered Dental Hygienist, BS, is warning the upcoming generations from going to unregistered individuals that have dental services available. As the CEO of About Your Smile Luxury Teeth Whitening Bar, Griffin has partnered with dentists in the Caribbean to offer a resource for dental vacations. Dental tourism is the newest money-saving trend both generations can take advantage of.

About Your Smile Luxury Teeth Whitening Bar is becoming the link between cost-focused consumers and certified dentists in other countries. By providing professional guidance via a 1-on-1 consultation, Griffin's company is the trusted liaison to lower the risk of lower-priced procedure infractions. One of the top procedures over the last four years has been the cosmetic enhancement of teeth. While About Your Smile Luxury Teeth Whitening Bar hires certified professionals to do simple services such as teeth whitening and cleaning, Griffin makes it clear that it should be done under a licensed and experienced dental professional. "I'm seeing veneers being placed over decayed teeth in luxury settings by people who are great at marketing and who have paid to learn a technique by non-dental professionals. I'm seeing people paying $5000 or more for a product that won't last and will cause the pain that people ran from." The latest trend has the dental hygienist and her colleagues asking, "Why would you go to your lash tech or your nail salon for teeth whitening?"

As many are aware, there are links between gum disease and other diseases throughout the body, according to Cheron K. Griffin and the Mayo Clinic. Beyond internal health, oral communication also deteriorates with cosmetic surgeries gone wrong. Griffin confirms, "The urban community loving luxury in the Urban Hoods of America is creating futuristic chaos (5-10 years) in the world of dentistry. Broken teeth, decayed teeth, oversized veneers, and people with speech impediments are risks this generation faces." Social media has brought to light what professionals are calling the 'Mr.Ed' teeth from second-rate cosmetic enhancements. "As I scroll the Instagram streets, I see veneers that are too big and too white. Seeing people who can't close their mouths properly and who have to relearn how to talk because of faulty dentistry by non-dental professionals." Cheron states.

The cost of working with a licensed dentist may not be attractive to GenZ and Millenials that are having a tough time financially. However, healthy teeth is a top priority for the About Your Smile Luxury Teeth Whitening Bar owner. To prevent the next generation from losing their teeth over the next 5-10 years from neglect, cosmetic oral surgeries gone wrong, and various other causes, it is best to seek those offering luxury oral care services at an establishment with licensed professionals on staff. Ensuring the right people are available in case of dental emergencies can save this generation's teeth for decades to come.
