Teeth beauty is also a part of oral health. It is a good thing to love beauty, but be careful not to fall into the trap.

According to an investigative report by "Southern Weekend", some institutions are promoting "beautiful dentistry" training. After three days and three nights of "intensive training", students with no basic knowledge can master veneers and "nano tooth carving", etc. For teeth beauty technology, issue a "Beauty Dentist Skills Certificate" and then open a shop. Most of these training institutions started out as cosmetologists or manicurists and do not have any dental medical related background.

It is rare for industry associations to speak out so vigorously. The promotion of "mastering" teeth-beautifying techniques in three days and earning tens of thousands of yuan per customer is also very shocking. Those "quasi-dentists" who have studied dentistry for five or six years may have fainted in the toilet.

You may also wonder: Is this technology feasible? As the saying goes, if you are not good at technology, you can make up for it with good words. It is understood that Super Effective Tuoke and Dental Feng Shui are compulsory courses in almost all training courses. "Gap in the teeth will lead to leakage and loss of money; uneven teeth will lead to a bad temper" - the term "transportation" has long been a marketing tool for these cosmetic dentists.

Behind some commercial training institutions, there is also the support of the "Beautiful Teeth Committee". As the director unit of the association, these training institutions provide one-stop services from admissions to training to assessment to issuance of certificates - I am not afraid that you do not understand, but I am afraid that you will not come.

However, "beautifying teeth is a very rigorous and precise medical practice." Anyone who has seen a dentist may have experienced it. A series of medical standards during the operation obviously require years of formal institutions and doctors. Supported by clinical experience. And how can a "beautiful dentist" who can be made in just three days make people feel at ease?

You must know that teeth are not just decorations for beauty, but also the most important body tissue of human beings. Whether it is cold light whitening, invisible correction, or porcelain veneers, any slight deviation in the treatment will directly affect the bite of the teeth. Not to mention, the hygiene standards of some beauty salons are not up to standard, and careless operations may cause tooth inflammation and systemic infection.

Therefore, it is very necessary to further clarify the medical attributes of "beautiful teeth". I advise you to avoid those dental technicians who are quick in three days, even if they are "certified". The National Health Commission has also stated that it will work with relevant departments to severely crack down on illegal medical practices involving oral medicine.

In recent years, from the old belief that "toothache is not a disease" to regular dental cleaning and dental visits becoming common sense, people are paying more and more attention to oral health and beauty. This is undoubtedly an improvement in consciousness. However, compared with the rapidly growing demand of society, professional dental medical institutions still have problems such as difficulty in registration and high cost. Therefore, while attacking the miscellaneous army, the regular army should obviously be further enriched.
