- There is a trend of TikTok users sharing their experience of getting their teeth ground down to pegs for the "perfect smile."
- Some are getting veneers, and some are getting a full set of crowns, which need to be replaced every 10 to 15 years.
- The preparation for full coverage crowns is more aggressive than veneers and compromises more of the tooth, so dentists do not recommend this for young people.
- "She's going to have dentures by the age of 40," Dr. Shaadi Manouchehri, a London-based dentist, said while commenting on a video of a young influencer's "veneer vlog" on TikTok.
