Dr. Oz is Giving Bad Dental Advice

On his popular TV show, Dr. Oz revealed his secret for home remedy for keeping your teeth pearly white. The secret? Baking soda and lemon juice.

While the TV doctor may have good intentions, he is not a dentist. He has not given you good advice. Dr. Oz is telling you to brush with an acid base food that will only erode the enamel on your teeth.

Unfortunately, because he is on TV and the people who watches his TV show believes what he says is true. The dental community do not agree with what he says, and he should give dental experts air time on his show to give the public the correct advice.

So what is the safest ways to whitening your teeth? Dr. Duke Bui, a Tacoma dentist, recommends either hydrogen peroxide or carbamide peroxide products. These are customarily available through your friendly dentist and over-the-counter.
