Well, i haven't been visiting the dentist for a couple of years now. I'm thinking that it's about time to go see the dentist for a possible cleanup & i'm needing to get my teeth braced to straighten it. Should I be aware of anything concerning my health before I visit the dentist? That analgram thing one of your articles talked about doesn't have anything to do with braces right? And do you suggest I get a cleanup or my teeth whitened...or will that risk my health in some way?
