Americans and Europeans grow up in two different environments and parts of the world. They can share various things in life, but when it comes to dentistry do Americans and Europeans use it in the same way? In Glasgow, a more poorer city compared to New York City, use their dentistry for health needs; but what people don’t know is the percentage compared between Americans in New York City and Europeans in Glasgow, on the way people prefer whiter teeth over natural. In the end though, Americans in New York City do use dentistry more as a ‘cosmetic’ improvement, rather then for health compared to Glasgow who uses just about 10% less of dental needs for ‘cosmetics’ rather than healthcare.
