Hearing Loss Due to Heavy Music
Teenagers are more prone to damaging their hearing ability with heavy, loud music than the adults. Inspite of the health problems, more than half say they will not cut down on the listening time nor reduce the volume.
Going to concerts and blasting your music player once a while is ok. Too much exposure to loud noise can lead to noise induced hearing loss (NIHL). Personal stereo players are the main culprits of NIHL among teens. There are chances that children who listen to loud music may have to use hearing aids later in their life. Many experts now believe that people lose their hearing at a younger age than they did 30 years back.
Sunless Tanning for Teens
Many teenagers are now a days obsessed with the bronze look. The teenagers want to look "Younger, sexier and slimmer" with the tanned complexion. This is practiced exclusively for cosmetic reasons. Too often and too much tanning is risky. If you plan on tanning yourself then use methods that are safer like, gradual and moderate indoor tanning session, using proper sunscreen indoor and outdoor.
Teeth Whitening for Kids
Tooth whitening is a procedure that is used to lighten teeth and help remove stains and discolouration. Whitening is one of the most popular cosmetic dental procedures and can improve the appearance of your teeth signifucantly. Teens who have discoloured teeth have a negative self-image that can result in less levels of self confidence. Teeth whitening could help with their self-image.
It is also possible that kids have stains that are inside the tooth. These stains are also called as intrinsic stains. Intrinsic stains are usually caused by fluorisis while teeth are developing. Stains can also be caused due to injury and infection.
