The videos are all over Instagram and TikTok, which means many Huszti Dental Care patients are asking about them. In these trends, young men – mostly – chew on a flexible silicone ball and their jawlines are instantly transformed into the chiseled look of a male model. Other videos demonstrate “mewing” the practice of pressing your tongue to the roof of your closed mouth. Done regularly, it is said to reduce sagging skin under your chin, thus creating a square jawline. Spoiler alert: No matter what these videos may show, these practices don’t work and may even be detrimental. Let’s start with mewing. This has been around since the 1970s and its creators say it helps resolve issues from misaligned teeth to sleep apnea, speech disorders and more. Disorders like these, the creators – Dr. John Mew and his son Mike – say have been caused by the fact that people’s jaws are getting smaller. That part is true. Chances are it won’t hurt you, but here is very little evidence to support the doctors’ claims. The funny part is that, if not done properly, there is some reason to believe mewing can lead to the very things it was meant to fix. Give this one a pass. The more problematic of these two trends is the one often called Jawzrsize, for the product that launched the craze. Chewing on a rubber or silicone ball as a jaw workout designed to square up the jaw and reduce double chins. Doing this can strengthen your bite, but for the vast majority of people, there is no need for that. Problem No. 1 is that patients can develop temporomandibular disorders, which is pain in the jaw and the muscles that control it. Injuries can occur causing popping and clicking of the jaw and, importantly, pain. A second possibility dentists worry about with jaw strengtheners, is that the device puts force on the teeth in ways that could cause them to move, causing alignment issues and loosening of teeth. Another potential problem is that chewing stimulates the production of stomach acid because the body thinks it’s getting some food. Because it is not, the extra acid the body produces can lead to acid reflux, which erodes teeth. We’ve said this over and over , and we’ll say it again. Don’t take medical advice from teenagers on social media. Huszti Dental Care professionals can explain the pros and cons and help you to make an informed choice. And always remember, just because it’s on the internet doesn’t mean it’s true.

A recent article in the New York Times about the worst food for your teeth inspired this post. But since not all readers of the Huszti Dental Care blog are subscribers to that newspaper, we thought we would write our own. We start with this: There are lots of foods that can be bad for your teeth. But the real issue comes in how people eat those foods. Sugar Bombs : Candy, pastries and sugary drinks can be a one-way ticket to a cavity. Bacteria in your mouth love to feast on sugar, leading to enamel erosion and tooth decay. Consider these treats an occasional indulgence, and always rinse with water afterward. Sugary drinks like shakes and sodas are bad because you sip on them for a long time, which means your mouth hasn't had enough time to fight off the last round of sips before take another. That means the pH in your mouth is off for a longer period of time. That bad pH means cavity-causing bacteria has a longer time to do its evil work. Acid Attacks : Foods and drinks high in acidity, like citrus fruits, pickles and sodas, can weaken your enamel over time, making your teeth more prone to damage. Limit your intake. Some people think using a straw to minimize the drink's contact with your teeth can help. It may not help, but it won't necessarily hurt. Sticky Stowaways : Sticky snacks such as caramels, dried fruit and chewy candies can cling to your teeth like nobody's business, providing a breeding ground for cavity-causing bacteria. If you must indulge, brush and floss diligently afterward to remove any lingering residue. Crunchy Culprits : Potato chips, pretzels and other crunchy snacks might satisfy your cravings, but they can also wreak havoc on your teeth by getting lodged between them, which promotes plaque buildup. Opt for healthier alternatives like raw veggies or nuts instead. At Huszti Dental Care, we don't recommend you completely cut out sugary foods and drinks. We just suggest you be conscious of how you take them in and rinse your mouth or brush your teeth after eating or drinking. Bottom line: what you eat matters, not just for your waistline, but for your dental health too. Choose tooth-friendly snacks and beverages, and remember to brush and floss regularly to keep your smile shining bright.

Dental school these days is not only about learning biology, chemistry and chairside manner. It's about becoming part of a national and international network of dental practitioners. And, just as important, it's about being part of the community from which you draw patients. Olivia and Sophia Huszti, daughters of Huszti Dental Care owners Drs. Bill Huszti and Anna Chong-Huszti, are students at University of Detroit Mercy's School of Dentistry. It's the same school where Bill and Anna met and learned about how important organized dentistry can be in terms of networking, continued education and support of dental practitioners. Here is only a bit of what Olivia and Sophia have been involved in recently. National Leadership Conference in Chicago with ASDA (American Student Dental Association) Dental students from around the country are selected from applications to attend NLC to learn more about the dental profession and being a leader in this field. Olivia and Sophia were selected to represent Detroit Mercy's School of Dentistry. At the conference, above) they listened to various lectures, networked with other dental students and others within the dental profession.
