Terms
Terms of use
By using Healthy Teeth Basics you agree to these terms. They are short and written in plain English.
General education, not dental or medical advice
The guides on this site are general information about oral health. They are not dental or medical advice, a diagnosis or a treatment plan, and they don't replace a dentist, hygienist, doctor or pharmacist who can examine you and knows your history. No dentist or other health professional writes or reviews the guides. If you have pain, swelling, a loose tooth, bleeding that keeps coming back or a sore that lasts, contact a dentist. Swelling with trouble breathing or swallowing is an emergency: call 911 or go to the emergency room.
Your health decisions
Everyone's mouth is different. Timings in our guides are typical ranges from published sources, not promises of results. Never stop, start or change a prescribed medicine because of something you read here; ask the prescriber or a pharmacist.
Supplement reviews
Our supplement reviews describe what each vendor says and what independent evidence shows, as read on the date given on the page. We have not used the products. Prices, ingredients and refund terms are set by the vendor and can change at any time; always check the vendor's own page before you buy. Refunds and orders are handled by the vendor and its payment processor, not by us.
Accuracy
We check every guide against its cited sources, but guidance changes and mistakes happen. We don't guarantee that every page is complete, current or error-free. If you find a problem, please tell us and we'll correct it as described on how we write.
Links and products
We link to other websites, including sources, Amazon and supplement vendors (through ClickBank). We don't control those sites and aren't responsible for their content, products, prices or services. See our affiliate disclosure for how links may earn us money.
Using our content
You're welcome to read, print and share links to our guides for personal, non-commercial use. Please don't copy whole guides or images to another website or product without permission. The logo and name Healthy Teeth Basics belong to us.
Limits of liability
To the extent the law allows, Healthy Teeth Basics is not liable for any loss or injury arising from use of the site or reliance on its content, or from products bought from third parties. Nothing in these terms limits rights you have that cannot be limited by law.
Changes to these terms
We may update these terms. The "Updated" date shows when they last changed. Using the site after a change means you accept the updated terms. Questions are welcome through our contact page.
