“Smiles and teeth are one of the first things seen and noticed by other people,” dentist Dr. Sandip Sachar tells Yahoo Life. “There’s a reason we’ve all been taught to ‘smile and say cheese’ when taking photographs.”
Perfect teeth, including whiteness, alignment and size, give one the appearance of beauty, wealth and success,” says Sachar. “Research has shown that people with straight white teeth are perceived to be more attractive, trustworthy, competent and wealthy. Self-esteem and confidence stem directly from this perception.”

- You have persistent bad breath, despite brushing and flossing daily
- You’ve noticed a whitish coating on your tongue
- Your sense of taste has diminished or dulled

“The prevalence of gum disease continues to be an important public health problem in the United States as 2 in 5 adults are affected by some form of this disease,” Dr. Sandip Sachar, a dentist in New York City, told The Epoch Times. Untreated gum disease can impact overall health beyond just the heart.
“Gum disease has also been linked to rheumatoid arthritis, respiratory problems, liver disease, and adverse pregnancy outcomes,” Sachar said.
However, Sachar added, the condition can be prevented, treated, and even reversed by “getting professional dental cleanings by a dentist at least twice a year, and maintaining gum health with brushing twice a day, and flossing daily.”

“Since banana peels do not contain any whitening agents, the teeth whitening effect is likely a result of plaque removal from friction rather than stain lifting or bleaching,” says Dr. Sandip Sachar, DDS. Be sure to brush with your regular toothpaste and floss afterwards, and consult with your dentist if you're after more dramatic results.
The popular TikTok claim that the minerals in banana peels may penetrate the teeth and aid in the remineralization of enamel, helping to strengthen teeth and prevent tooth decay or cavities, is a false claim, says Dr. Sachar.

Sandip Sachar, D.D.S., founder and owner of Sachar Dental NYC, says that biotin, along with other B vitamins, helps maintain healthy mucosal tissues and supports healing after dental surgery.

Now, with simple options like teeth whitening, and porcelain veneers or Lumineers, it is easier than ever for you to have the smile that you have always dreamed of." says Manhattan cosmetic dentist, Dr. Sandip Sachar.
Lumineers are porcelain veneers as thin as a contact lens, that are bonded to existing teeth without having to painfully remove healthy tooth structure, giving you a beautiful, dazzling, white smile.
“The procedure can often be done without the need for anesthesia.“ says Dr. Sachar.

“Clenching and grinding of the teeth while sleeping causes overuse, pain and fatigue of the jaw muscles,” explains NYC-based dentist Sandip Sachar, DDS.. “Temporomandibular joint disorder (TMD) is the medical term for pain in the temporomandibular joint (commonly called TMJ).” Other symptoms may include jaw pain and cracked or chipped teeth.

Fluoride also is found naturally in some groundwater, some plants, and crops such as spinach, tea leaves, some grains, saltwater fish and shellfish, says Sandip Sachar, DDS, a Manhattan dentist at Sachar Dental and committee member of the New York Dental Society.
“Fluoride helps strengthen tooth enamel and prevents cavities by assisting in remineralization of enamel decay,” says Sachar. “It also assists in making the enamel stronger and more resistant to acid and bacteria.”

On the other hand, black coffee is acidic, meaning it's not exactly great for your tooth enamel. Dr. Sachar says the acidity of black coffee ranges from 4.85 to 5.10. "Acid causes erosion of tooth enamel and can lead to increased tooth decay," she explains. "Additionally, coffee contains tannins that cause staining and yellowish discoloration of the teeth."

Sandip Sachar, DDS, who has been practicing general and cosmetic dentistry in Midtown, Manhattan, NYC for over 20 years, recommends using an organic oil, if you're going to try this.
"I tell my patients there is no harm in trying it out," said Sachar. "Feel free to give it a shot and see if you notice any change. Some of my patients have said yes, the gums feel better, and some have said no, there was no change." However, she added, "There is no evidence that oil pulling can clean teeth or remove plaque as effectively as mechanical brushing and flossing."

Sandip Sachar, DDS, a New York City-based dentist with Sachar Dental, says that when your immune system is compromised, you may also have trouble fighting off oral infections.
"Since there are normal bacteria in the mouth, it is easy to get infections of the gum tissue," says Sachar. "The normal presence of bacteria is called colonization; however, when bacteria abnormally invade the tissues, the same bacteria can cause infections. As a result, patients with nutritional or immune deficiencies are more susceptible to gum infections and periodontal disease."
Similarly, the dentist notes that some people with protein deficiency may develop mouth ulcers, sores, or angular cheilitis—cracks that form at the corners of the mouth.

Headaches are a common symptom of grinding your teeth and clenching your jaw muscles (medical known as bruxism), says NYC-based dentist Sandip Sachar, DDS.
Headaches caused by TMD can be eased by massaging the jaw and temporarily following a soft-food diet for two to four days or until the headache resolves (which can mean seven to 10 days), offers Dr. Sachar. Additionally, she suggests making a conscious effort not to clench your jaw while you're awake and keeping your teeth apart.

Dr. Sandip Sachar, who has been practicing general and cosmetic dentistry in New York City for over 20 years, says consistency should be your default response if you notice your floss smells bad.
“Generally, all this means is you need to floss that area more (at least once or, if needed, twice a day). As you floss it more, you'll notice your used floss won't stink anymore because the plaque buildup is not sitting there for long periods of time decomposing,” she says.
Parents Mgazine
New York dentist, Dr. Sandip Sachar, finds U-shaped toothbrushes "far inferior compared to traditional toothbrushes."
The main problem? These devices don't adequately contact all tooth surfaces, which means they don't effectively remove plaque, food particles, and bacteria. This can lead to tooth decay, bad breath, and poor oral hygiene overall, according to Dr. Sachar.
While the consensus is clear that U-shaped toothbrushes shouldn't replace traditional brushing methods, Dr. Sachar acknowledges there might be limited circumstances where they could serve a purpose.
"I have had pediatric patients with disabilities or injuries that are unable to brush on their own," Dr. Sachar explains. "Older children do not like parents to brush for them. In these unusual circumstances, a U-shaped toothbrush is better than no toothbrush at all."

It could also be more gentle on your enamel compared to traditional coffee. “Mushroom coffee is typically less acidic than traditional coffee,” says Sandip Sachar, DDS, founder at Sachar Dental NYC. “Acidic food and drinks contribute to enamel erosion.”
“Unfortunately, due to dark pigmentation, mushroom coffee still stains teeth just like traditional coffee,” says Dr. Sachar. “It contains tannins and chromogens that can yellow enamel just like regular coffee.”

Experts typically recommend refraining from eating within three hours of bedtime to get a good night’s sleep and prevent digestive issues like acid reflux.
Caffeine can also cause an increase in nighttime teeth clenching and grinding, Sandip Sachar, DDS, a New York City dentist with Sachar Dental NYC, told Health.
Eating before bed can lead to acid reflux, and tooth erosion, according to Dr. Sachar.
“Stomach acid in the mouth causes erosion of tooth enamel,” said Dr. Sachar. “This is a subtle but important sign of reflux that is often overlooked.”
While your saliva washes away and dissolves food particles and neutralizes acid, your saliva production drops when you sleep, said Dr. Sachar. This leads to teeth staying coated in cavity-causing bacteria that thrive on those food particles. Eventually, you may experience tooth erosion and gum disease.

According to Sandip Sachar, DDS, a top-rated New York City-based dentist and the owner of Sachar Dental, calcium helps to remineralize tooth enamel after erosion from acidic foods, bacteria, and plaque.
"Enamel is the hardest substance in the body, even harder than our bones, and is 96 percent made of a combination of calcium and phosphate, called hydroxyapatite," Sachar shares.
"Calcium promotes remineralization, and prevents jawbone deterioration from bacteria, wear and tear and the effects of aging," says Sachar. "This is even more important in postmenopausal women."

That’s because green tea has powerful antibacterial properties. “It’s rich in polyphenols, which have been shown to neutralize sulfur compounds and inhibit bacteria in the mouth,” explains Dr. Sandip Sachar, DDS, a general and cosmetic dentist at Sachar Dental.
Unsweetened is key. Dr. Sachar warns that the sugar in sweetened green tea can feed the bacteria in your mouth, leading to more bacterial growth—and worse breath. Plus, if you had sugar right before bed, it can increase your risk of tooth decay while you sleep, making unsweetened green tea the preferred choice.

According to Manhattan dentist Sandip Sachar, the condition is characterised by four distinct symptoms in the early stages, all of which appear in the mouth.
"One of the earliest and most notable symptoms of vitamin B12 deficiency is glossitis," Sandip told GB News. "Glossitis presents as a smooth and swollen tongue. Patients with B12 deficiency may present with the symptoms of a swollen tongue due to disruption of DNA synthesis in the rapidly dividing cells of the mucosal tissue."
"Some patients experience significant metallic or altered taste that can be very frustrating. These symptoms can also result in anxiety and fear due to the unknown reasons why they are experiencing these symptoms."
Sandip warned: "The oral symptoms listed above related to B12 deficiency can significantly impact the patient's quality of life.

“In general, there are two types of plans, PPO plans and DHMO plans,” according to Dr. Sandip Sachar, a practitioner of cosmetic and general dentistry in New York City for more than 20 years.
“There are also variations within these two types," Dr. Sachar adds. "PPO plans generally allow you to pick which dentist to go to, whereas DHMO plans only allow you to go to a participating provider.”

“I have observed that there’s a strong connection between dental hygiene and cardiovascular disease. Conditions like gingivitis and periodontitis, which are part of periodontal disease, cause inflammation in the tissues surrounding the teeth. This inflammation and the associated bacteria can enter the bloodstream, leading to the formation of arterial plaque, which can contribute to heart disease.”

Vitamin B12 deficiency is widespread, yet despite its deleterious effects, public awareness of the condition remains low. One of the major risks of delaying treatment is becoming plagued with permanent symptoms, experts warn.
According to Manhattan dentist Sandip Sachar, the condition is characterised by four distinct symptoms in the early stages, all of which appear in the mouth.
"Glossitis presents as a smooth and swollen tongue. Patients with B12 deficiency may present with the symptoms of a swollen tongue due to disruption of DNA synthesis in the rapidly dividing cells of the mucosal tissue."
Yet, despite hindering the life quality of patients, the symptoms often go unnoticed or get misdiagnosed as other ailments.

One of the surprising health benefits of biotin is its role in oral health. Sandip Sachar, D.D.S., founder and owner of Sachar Dental NYC, says that biotin, along with other B vitamins, helps maintain healthy mucosal tissues and supports healing after dental surgery. Research also suggests that biotin, along with other B vitamins, supports the immune system and lowers the risk of oral infections, such as oral thrush—a yeast infection caused by Candida fungus—that appears as painful white patches in the mouth or tongue.

“Dental fear is real, and it is introduced at a very young age,” says Dr. Sachar. “This has resulted in nearly 50% of the U.S. population not seeing a dentist routinely, resulting in periodontal problems and premature loss of teeth."

While green tea may help freshen your breath, it’s not a substitute for your nightly oral hygiene routine. According to Dr. Sachar, it can assist with reducing morning breath—but relying on it too much could lead to other dental concerns.
For example, green tea has tannins that can bind to tooth enamel and cause a dull gray or yellowish discoloration over time. Thus, Sachar advises drinking green tea before brushing your teeth so you can rinse out any residual green tea.

In 1950, the U.S. Public Health Service officially endorsed adding fluoride to drinking water. “By the 1960s, it was common for many towns and cities to have added fluoride in their drinking water,” says Dr Sandip Sachar.
Additionally, she says studies have found teens and younger adults have better remineralization and repair of tooth enamel when they get increased fluoride from water, diet, and toothpaste. Older adults also get significant benefit from fluoride by strengthening and repairing enamel, she says.
