LOS ANGELES, Dec 24 — After the Hyaluron Pen craze — a source of various unwanted side effects — the latest trend sweeping TikTok is what users seem to think are dental veneers. And that’s exactly the problem. Health professionals are now speaking out to warn people of the dangers of filing down healthy teeth to add not veneers but dental crowns. Lisa Harand, a dentist and Happybrush collaborator, helps clear up come misconceptions about this viral trend.
