In today’s busy world, it is difficult to not feel the effects of stress. You may get headaches or back pain, but have you stopped to think about how stress may be affecting your dental health ?
Stress can take a toll on your teeth. In fact, as this video shows, you may not even be aware that stress behaviors are impacting your smile.
