It reached over 1 billion monthly active users in September 2021. The short clips are a favorite among people of all ages. While you can find popular dances and cooking tips, the site is also full of harmful challenges. Among the latest are videos of people sharing the benefits of dentures to help break the stigma of tooth loss. Here\u2019s how the popular viral trend is changing lives on social media.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Busting the Stigma of Tooth Loss<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Tooth loss is often attributed with age, but anyone can lose teeth. The stigma surrounding missing teeth and dentures stops many young adults from seeking treatment. They often believe they are too young to replace their teeth. Others choose to deal with the challenges of missing teeth instead of the embarrassment of others finding out they have dentures. The negativity surrounding the topic causes countless people to suffer in silence, but a new TikTok trend is committed to busting stereotypes associated with dentures and young adults.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Among the everyday people to join the trend is TikTok user @princxssglitterhead, who chose same-day dental implants to replace all her natural teeth. She has shared her journey through online diaries that have received over 10 million views. After taking the leap to rebuild her smile, she is now encouraging others to show what they look like with and without their dentures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>People around the world are joining the trend to share their smiles and stories behind their tooth loss. Whether from rapid decay during pregnancy, advanced gum disease, trauma, or another factor, each story is shattering misconceptions to give people the confidence to visit their dentist to rehabilitate their smiles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Discover the Benefits of Dentures<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>No matter if you\u2019re missing a single tooth, several teeth, or an entire arch, you have more options than ever to restore your smile.
