A WOMAN who had her teeth fixed in Turkey has shared a video warning others not to make the same mistake.
Keisha-Louise explained that the company assured her they could straighten her “crooked” teeth “a trillion percent.”

They then said they could schedule her right away, meaning she had no ‘down time’ before having to make the booking.
“I was originally going to go there for veneers, but someone said I shouldn’t get them because they bleed,” she said in the TikTok video.
“So I went for crowns.”
When she got there, they “went straight to work” and fixed her teeth, but they “weren’t straight.”
“I was furious,” she admitted.
“I said, ‘You told me they were going to be straight,’ and then they denied it and said, ‘No, we’re not, no, we’re not!’
“There’s one reason not to do it: they’re just lying!”
Keisha-Louise added that even after paying “all the money” for the teeth, they were still broken and crooked, so she plans to go back to have them fixed.
But she said the company kept “changing the dates” before sending her an email with an offer for laminate veneers, adding salt to the wound.
“Honey, I ground my teeth down to the ground,” she raged.
“Why would I want laminate veneers if I have crowns?
“Do you see what I mean?
“How quickly they get confused!?”
And now her “hell” continues, as she has to pay to fly to Turkey and stay there, while they “have no idea what they are doing”.
“Here’s the sign,” she concluded.
“Do your research – don’t just pick the first spot!”
Dentist-Approved Teeth Whitening Tips
ERIN Fraundorf, DMD, MSD, owner of BOCA Orthodontic + Whitening Studio in Missouri, shared her top tips for whiter teeth.
Seek professional bleaching treatment. It is often stronger and will be the most effective so you don’t waste your money on a product that won’t work or could cause you harm. You also only get one set of teeth so it’s best not to experiment with it.
Think about the cause of the stains. There are numerous causes of teeth turning yellow or brown. Make sure you are evaluated and diagnosed by a professional to ensure you get the best treatment for your stains. Not all stains are the same, so they may require different treatments.
Consider your lifestyle, your smile goals, and your budget. When choosing a whitening treatment that’s right for you, there are several factors to consider when designing a customized plan. Some people want to whiten at home, others prefer in-office treatments, some need to get really light really quickly — for a wedding, for example — while others want a gentler, gradual, consistent approach to whitening.
Take it easy. Start whitening your teeth gradually so that your teeth can get used to it. You can monitor the sensitivity of your teeth closely and determine how often you want to whiten your teeth.
Try to avoid. Make small lifestyle changes to help prevent stains from penetrating your teeth. For example, drink staining beverages through a straw, rinse with plain water after drinking something that stains, and choose still water instead of sparkling water whenever possible.
Water flosser to remove stains between teeth. Remove stubborn stains between your teeth with a water flosser, as the bristles of a toothbrush can only reach a limited part of the tooth surface.
And the comments section was filled with people’s reactions almost immediately. One of them wrote: “It looks like you have three front teeth?”
“They gave you 3 rabbit teeth!” added another.
“Where is your center line? It doesn’t seem right?” asked a third.
As someone else agreed, writing, “I think this every time I look at her… her front two don’t look like her front two??”
“It literally stresses me out just looking at it,” wrote another.
“Have you ever thought about getting braces and then composite bonding?” someone else asked.
“That’s what I’ve had: it takes a while, but the results from gluing edges are insane.”
“I’ve had my teeth ground down now,” Keisha-Louise replied.
“I’m terrified of shaving my teeth,” admitted another.
As Keisha-Louise concluded, “I wish I never did it, honestly, because it gave me a headache.”
