Most important steps to your glow up?

Top Tier.

Braces.

I had my braces on for 18 months, and they were the best decision of my life. I can breathe better, my jaw and chin look better, my teeth are straighter, and I have no more pain. Facial harmony is everything, and mine was restored by an expert orthodontist and continued use of my retainers. Jaw surgery wasn’t reasonable or necessary, but I can’t even begin to describe the impact that dental whitening, braces, weight loss, and proper dental care work had on my face.

 

Electrolytes and Hydration.

I was severely dehydrated and in need of electrolytes for years and years. I thought that drinking enough water wasn’t as important as people made it seem, but my life changed when I started to do it. Life feels much less stressful now that I’m properly hydrated, and I make sure to toss a little lemon and salt in my water and drink a Gatorade or Liquid IV to get electrolytes.

 

Darker and Longer Hair.

I look better with hair that’s long, dark, and thick. I have alopecia, so I did a number of things to disguise my hair loss growing up, but I wear wigs now that my hair is gone. I was told to wear my hair long, dark, and straight last year, and whenever I do, people tell me that I look otherworldly. Now that I know what to do with my hair and what looks best, I’m a million times more confident about myself.

 

Less Dairy.

I am not lactose intolerant, but I do not need to be eating dairy in excess. I enjoy dairy, so I won’t cut it out of my diet, but I don’t need to be eating it in the amount that I did. I was bloated, always breaking out, and tired all the time, but my low energy dissipated the second I cut my dairy intake. I’m not 100% dairy-free and most likely won’t ever be, but I’m careful with the amount I consume.

 

Korean Contact Lenses.

Americans think that all colored contact lenses are unnatural, and American-made colored contacts are. I use Olens contacts and only use the dark shades, and they’re amazing. I find that having huge, dark, striking eyes helps me get exactly what I want, and I love the way I look when I’m wearing contacts. I use contacts to craft my look and emphasize my eyes, and I never buy or use colors that aren’t brown or black. Wearing dark contacts has reduced my need for so much bright eye makeup; they make me look friendlier, and I look better in photos.

 

Better Quality Makeup.

Investing in higher-quality makeup and actually learning how to apply it was crucial. Buying Hourglass, Pat McGrath, Charlotte Tilbury, MAC, and Nars was sort of essential to my makeup journey, and I look much better now that I’ve invested the time and money into learning about makeup. Dupes just don’t hold up to the real things, and I look better now that I’m spending $45 on one product instead of spending $45 on five different products to try to replicate the look.

 

Urea, Glutamic Acid, and Dry Brushing.

I used to have serious strawberry arms and legs, dry skin, and dark spots from body acne, but all of that has cleared up. Hyaluronic acid and body serums have nothing on this combo, and dry brushing has completely cleared up my rough skin and helped with my stretch marks. If you want skin that’s plump, hydrated, glowing, and looks healthy, then you have to exfoliate your dry and wet skin and start using this trio to care for your body.

 

Better Skincare Products.

I invested a lot in using fancy designer brands, but the things that helped me the most were basic, unscented, and quality. I use Paula’s Choice exfoliant, plenty of SPF 100, retinol, and a variety of Korean and American products. My facial acne is gone, my dark marks are cleared, my skin barrier is healed, my skin looks healthier, and I’m glowing. Drunk Elephant, celebrity skincare brands, and trending products didn’t do it for me; figuring out what I needed and then implementing it into my routine helped.

 

Creating my own aesthetic.

I won’t stop talking about The Blend because it helped me become who I am today. I wanted to create a look that would help me, and so I had to spend months solidifying my image. It took me a year to get to where I am today, but life became easier once I was able to figure out what I should be doing, what I should be saving for or investing in, and what suited me. The Blend isn’t just about style, and I had to be scientific with it at times and really work with the resources I had and what was readily accessible to me.

I can do Mid Tier next.

A list of animal ingredients and their alternatives helps consumers avoid animal ingredients in food, cosmetics, and other products.

By the Nazarene Way.

There are thousands of technical and patented names for ingredient variations. Furthermore, many ingredients known by one name can be of animal, vegetable, or synthetic origin. If you have a question regarding an ingredient in a product, call the manufacturer. Good sources of additional information are the Consumer's Dictionary of Cosmetic Ingredients, the Consumer's Dictionary of Food Additives, or an unabridged dictionary. All of these are available at most libraries.

Adding to the confusion over whether or not an ingredient is of animal origin is the fact that many companies have removed the word "animal" from their ingredient labels to avoid putting off consumers. For example, rather than use the term "hydrolyzed animal protein," companies may use another term such as "hydrolyzed collagen." Simple for them, but frustrating for the caring consumer.

Animal ingredients are used not because they are better than vegetable-derived or synthetic ingredients but rather because they are generally cheaper. Today's slaughterhouses must dispose of the byproducts of the slaughter of billions of animals every year and have found an easy and profitable solution in selling them to food and cosmetics manufacturers.

Animal ingredients come from every industry that uses animals: meat, fur, wool, dairy, egg, and fishing, as well as industries such as horse racing and rodeo, which send unwanted animals to slaughter.

Rendering plants process the bodies of millions of tons of dead animals every year, transforming decaying flesh and bones into profitable animal ingredients. The primary source of rendered animals is slaughterhouses, which provide the "inedible" parts of all animals killed for food. The bodies of companion animals who are euthanized in animal shelters wind up at rendering plants, too. One small plant in Quebec renders 10 tons of dogs and cats a week, a sobering reminder of the horrible dog and cat overpopulation problem with which shelters must cope.

Some animal ingredients do not wind up in the final product but are used in the manufacturing process. For example, in the production of some refined sugars, bone char is used to whiten the sugar; in some wines and beers, isinglass (from the swim bladders of fish) is used as a "clearing" agent.

Kosher symbols and markings also add to the confusion and are not reliable indicators on which vegans or vegetarians should base their purchasing decisions. This issue is complex, but the "K" or "Kosher" symbols basically mean that the food manufacturing process was overseen by a rabbi, who theoretically ensures that it meets Hebrew dietary laws. The food also may not contain both dairy products and meat, but it may contain one or the other. "P" or "Parve" means the product contains no meat or dairy products but may contain fish or eggs. "D," as in "Kosher D," means that the product either contains dairy or was made with dairy machinery. For example, a chocolate and peanut candy may be marked "Kosher D" even if it doesn't contain dairy because the non-dairy chocolate was manufactured on machinery that also made milk chocolate. For questions regarding other symbols, please contact the Orthodox Union (212-563-4000) or other Jewish organizations or publications.

Thousands of products on store shelves have labels that are hard to decipher. It's nearly impossible to be perfectly vegan, but it's getting easier to avoid products with animal ingredients. Our list will give you a good working knowledge of the most common animal-derived ingredients and their alternatives, allowing you to make deci-sions that will save animals' lives.

The farmer's solution to this is the painful cutting away of the flesh around the tail (called "mulesing"). "Inferior" sheep are killed. When shearing the sheep, they are pinned down violently and sheared roughly. Their skin is cut up. Every year, hundreds of thousands of shorn sheep die from exposure to cold. Natural predators of sheep (wolves, coyotes, eagles, etc.) are poisoned, trapped, and shot. In the U.S., overgrazing of cattle and sheep is turning more than 150 million acres of land to desert. "Natural" wool production uses enormous amounts of resources and energy (to breed, raise, feed, shear, transport, slaughter, etc., the sheep). Derivatives: Lanolin, Wool Wax, Wool Fat. Alternatives: cotton, cotton flannel, synthetic fibers, ramie, etc.

Do Milk Teeth have Nerves

Have you ever wondered if milk teeth, also called baby teeth, have nerves? The answer is yes! Just like adult teeth, milk teeth have nerves inside them. These nerves help the teeth sense hot, cold, and even pain. Even though these teeth are temporary, they are just as important as permanent teeth because they help children chew, speak, and maintain proper jaw alignment.

Why Do Milk Teeth Have Nerves?

Milk teeth have nerves for the same reasons as adult teeth — to detect sensations and protect the tooth from potential harm. When a tooth senses something unusual, like extreme cold or pressure, the nerves send signals to the brain, acting as a warning system. So, even though milk teeth fall out eventually, their nerves play a crucial role in keeping your child’s oral health on track.

Caring for Milk Teeth

Taking care of milk teeth is vital for overall oral health. Here are some simple tips:-

Brushing Twice a Day: Teach your child to brush their teeth every morning and before bed using a soft-bristled toothbrush and kid-friendly toothpaste.

Regular Dental Checkups: Visit the best paediatric dentist in Naraina Vihar to ensure your child’s teeth are growing properly.

Healthy Diet: Limit sugary snacks and encourage foods that strengthen teeth, like fruits, vegetables, and dairy products.

Addressing Dental Issues Promptly: If your child complains of tooth pain, seek help from the best dentist in Naraina Vihar to address the problem early.

What Happens When a Milk Tooth Gets Damaged?

Sometimes, children may chip or damage their milk teeth while playing or chewing something hard. Since milk teeth have nerves, a damaged tooth can cause significant pain. In such cases, visiting the best dental clinic in Naraina Vihar is essential. A dentist will assess the damage and provide the necessary treatment to prevent further complications.

Can Milk Teeth Get Cavities?

If your child’s teeth appear crooked or overcrowded, it’s a good idea to explore Orthodontic Treatment in Naraina Vihar. These treatments help align teeth and improve your child’s smile.

Orthodontics isn’t just for kids. Adults can benefit too! Many people choose braces or aligners to improve their smiles. If you’re considering this, you can consult the best cosmetic dentist in Delhi to find the best solution for you.

Why a Healthy Smile Matters

A healthy smile boosts confidence and improves overall well-being. For children, healthy milk teeth pave the way for healthy permanent teeth. If you’re looking for a dentist who can enhance your smile, Smile Designing in Naraina Vihar is an excellent option. Smile designing involves various treatments like teeth whitening, braces, and veneers to give you the perfect smile.

Choosing the Right Dentist

Final Thoughts

Milk teeth may be temporary, but they play an essential role in a child’s development. From chewing to speaking, these little teeth do a lot of work.

New Year, New Smile: Tips for Achieving Better Oral Health in 2025

As the calendar flips to 2025, many of us are setting resolutions for self-improvement. Why not make your oral health a priority this year? A healthy smile is more than just an aesthetic asset; it’s a key component of your overall well-being. Here are some practical tips to help you achieve and maintain a radiant smile throughout the year.

1. Commit to Regular Dental Visits

The foundation of excellent oral health starts with routine dental checkups. Visiting your dentist twice a year for cleanings and exams allows for early detection of potential issues like cavities, gum disease, or oral cancer. In 2025, make it a goal to schedule your appointments in advance and stick to them.

2. Upgrade Your Oral Hygiene Routine

The basics of brushing and flossing are timeless, but there’s always room for improvement:

Brush effectively: Use a soft-bristled toothbrush and fluoride toothpaste. Brush for two minutes, twice a day.

Floss daily: Don’t skip this step! Flossing removes plaque and food particles from between teeth and under the gumline.

Try new tools: Consider investing in an electric toothbrush or water flosser for an extra edge in your oral care routine.

3. Pay Attention to Your Diet

Your diet has a direct impact on your oral health. Reduce your intake of sugary and acidic foods, which can erode enamel and contribute to decay. Instead, focus on:

Crunchy fruits and vegetables like apples and carrots that naturally clean teeth and stimulate gums.

Dairy products rich in calcium and phosphates to strengthen teeth.

Plenty of water to stay hydrated and rinse away food particles.

4. Whiten Your Smile Safely

If a brighter smile is part of your new year’s goals, explore safe whitening options. Over-the-counter whitening products can be effective, but professional whitening treatments offered by your dentist provide faster, longer-lasting results. Be cautious of unregulated DIY whitening hacks that could harm your enamel.

5. Address Dental Issues Promptly

Got a chipped tooth, sensitivity, or persistent bad breath? Don’t put off seeing your dentist. Treating problems early can prevent more extensive (and expensive) procedures down the line. Resolve to address dental concerns as soon as they arise in 2025.

6. Protect Your Smile

Whether you’re active in sports or dealing with nighttime teeth grinding, protective measures are essential:

Wear a mouthguard: Custom-fit guards protect teeth during contact sports.

Use a nightguard: A nightguard can prevent enamel wear and jaw pain caused by grinding or clenching.

7. Quit Harmful Habits

Make this the year you leave behind habits that damage your teeth and gums, such as smoking or nail-biting. Smoking, in particular, increases the risk of gum disease and stains your teeth. Seek support to quit and give your oral health a fresh start.

8. Educate Yourself and Your Family

Knowledge is power. Teach your children the importance of oral hygiene and lead by example. Use fun tools like kid-friendly toothbrushes and educational apps to make oral care a family affair.

A Healthier Smile Awaits in 2025

By setting realistic goals and staying consistent, you can transform your oral health this year. Remember, your dentist is your partner in this journey. At Dentistry on 14, we’re here to provide personalized care and guidance to help you achieve your best smile yet. Let’s make 2025 the year of healthier, happier smiles!

DENTAL AND ORAL HEALTH SOLUTIONS FROM TOP SAN ANTONIO DENTAL CLINIC HUEBNER DENTAL, Dr. Diego E. Rivas, DDS

When it comes to good oral hygiene, a preventive approach is the key to success. This is important at every state of life, but especially the older you get. Neglecting your dental health as you age can have serious consequences, including premature aging of the smile (gum recession and/or tooth discoloration) and the need for extensive and expensive corrective procedures. The good news is that if you follow the simple preventive habits listed below earlier in life, it can help avoid these consequences. Let’s start with effective oral hygiene instructions for adults with a few simple steps:

Brushing: To get the best oral hygiene results from toothbrushing, use a toothbrush, hold it at a 45-degree angle to your gums. Use short, circular strokes to move the brush over each tooth. Be sure you brush your teeth at least twice a day, including the front and back sides of all your upper and lower teeth. Take enough time to do a thorough job—up to 2 minutes each. Also, gently brush your tongue to remove odor-causing bacteria that will help give you fresher breath. Replace your toothbrush every three months. Watch out for over brushing, which may result in receding gums.

Flossing: One method that helps maintain oral hygiene by removing bacteria from areas between the teeth that are hard to reach by brushing alone is flossing. To floss your teeth, start with an 18-inch piece of floss, and wrap most of it around the middle finger of one hand. Wrap a small amount around the middle finger of the other hand. Move the floss carefully up and down between each tooth, and make a C-shape with the floss as you reach the gum line. As you move from tooth to tooth, unwind new floss from one hand and wind the used floss onto the other hand.

Rinsing: Rinsing with a mouthwash can get to places that your toothbrush and even the deep cleaning of floss can miss. Look for a mouthwash that contains fluoride, because fluoride is proven to strengthen enamel, fight cavities and kills bad breath bacteria.

Eat Right: A nutritious, balanced diet is essential for your overall health, and it’s important for your oral hygiene, too. Be sure to include plenty of dairy products, fruits, vegetables, and whole grains in your diet. Some foods that are especially good for oral hygiene: cheese, yogurt, milk, and peanuts. These foods can help remove sugars from the tooth surface and protect the teeth from plaque.

Choose the right products: The variety of oral hygiene products makes it easy for anyone to follow a regular oral hygiene routine. Choose toothbrushes and types of dental floss that you find easy and comfortable to use and you’ll be more inclined to stick with your oral hygiene routine.

Consult Your Dentist: Make dental visits part of your oral hygiene routine. Visit your dentist twice a year to help keep tooth stains under control and identify oral hygiene issues before any serious problems arise.

Achieve a Brighter Smile: Following a regular oral hygiene routine can help you maintain whitened teeth and prevent additional tooth staining. Rinse your mouth with water after eating foods or drinking beverages that tend to stain teeth, such as coffee and red wine, then wait 15-30 minutes before brushing your teeth.Achieve a Brighter Smile: Following a regular oral hygiene routine can help you maintain whitened teeth and prevent additional tooth staining.
