TikTok Exposes Misleading Dental Implant Ads: "Permanent Teeth in 24 Hours?"

Misleading Dental Implant Ads: A TikTok Creator's Experience Challenges 24-Hour Claims In a recent TikTok video, Sammy Lou (@sammylou1029) raises concerns about misleading advertising in the dental implant industry. The video, which has garnered significant attention, showcases Lou's own experience with dental implants. She received the implants in November 2024, but has since noticed significant gum shrinkage, questioning the validity of advertisements promising "permanent teeth in 24 hours." "I keep seeing these ads on here for implants, and they say, 'Get your permanent teeth in 24 hours!' How can you do that?" Lou questions in her video. She goes on to demonstrate the visible portion of her implants and the extent of gum recession, adding, "My gums have shrunk substantially. If I had gotten permanent teeth the same day, my gums still would have shrunk, right?"
