(Y por qué la clave está en mejorar sin perder tu esencia)
1. Hollywood: Inspiration with caution 🎬 🎬
From our experience::
“Celebrities have access to the best treatments, but they’re not always role models. Many go overboard: veneers that are too big, aggressive whitening, or smiles that don’t harmonize with their face. In the end, they end up with unnatural results… and even difficulties speaking or eating!”.
Real case from the clinic::
“I remember a patient who wanted to copy the veneers of a celebrity. After analyzing his case, we suggested a more discreet design that respected his facial anatomy. In the end, he told me: ‘I never imagined that less could be more. Now I feel like myself—just better.’”«».
2. TikTok: When trends become dangerous ⚠️ ⚠️
Dr. Alejandra’s warning::
“I see videos where people use lemon to whiten teeth, close gaps with thread, or glue on ‘fangs’ with adhesives. It’s alarming! These hacks not only damage teeth but also create false expectations. People think it’s easy, quick, and cheap… until they come to the office with extreme sensitivity or infections.”
Key fact::
70% of young patients we treat come in influenced by social media. Our priority is to explain that dentistry is not an ‘Instagram filter’: it requires time, technology, and professionalism 💡.
3. Less is more: The philosophy of AM Dental Studio 🌱

4. Viral myths vs. professional reality 🚫✅
| TikTok myth | Reality |
|---|---|
| “Veneers are for everyone” | “Before placing them, we evaluate gums, bite, and habits. If there’s decay or bruxism, those must be treated first!”. |
| “Whitening with baking soda works just as well” | “It’s like sanding a table: it removes enamel layers. Over time, teeth become yellow… and more fragile!”. |
| “DIY orthodontics works” | “Using elastic bands without supervision can move teeth in the wrong direction. I’ve seen fractured roots because of this!”. |
5. How to follow trends without risks? Expert tips 🧐
- Don’t go by “what looks good”:: “Every smile is unique. What worked for a celebrity may not work for you.”.
- Look for professionals, not influencers:: “A certified dentist will ask uncomfortable but necessary questions: Do you clench your teeth? Do you snore? Even that matters!”.
- Prioritize health over aesthetics:: “A healthy smile will always look better than one that’s perfect but artificial.”.
- Be wary of “instant results”:: “If they promise results in hours, that’s a red flag! Even the fastest whitening requires prior diagnosis.”.
Conclusion: Your smile isn’t a filter, it’s part of you.
In Dr. Alejandra Mora’s Dr. Alejandra Mora:
“The obsession with trends has made us forget something essential: the best smile isn’t the whitest or the most symmetrical—it’s the one that makes you feel free. Free from insecurities, from pain… free from hiding. At AM Dental Studio, we don’t chase fads: we create smiles that adapt to your life, not the other way around.”.
