This page explains, in plain terms, how articles on GoFixTeeth.com are researched, written, reviewed and updated — and what we will never do.
1. How topics are chosen
We prioritise questions real people search for when they are in pain or worried: post-extraction healing, unexplained toothache, gum problems, braces discomfort, and everyday oral-care products. We check what readers actually ask (search data) rather than what is easy to write.
2. How research is done
- Primary sources first: peer-reviewed studies (PubMed), Cochrane reviews, and official guidance from the ADA, NIDCR/NIH, CDC, NHS and Mayo Clinic.
- Every clinical claim must be traceable to at least one authoritative source linked in the article.
- We note uncertainty. Where evidence is weak or dentists disagree, we say so instead of picking a side.
3. Use of AI writing tools
We use AI-assisted drafting and SEO tools to speed up research and structure. Every published article is reviewed by a human editor for accuracy against the cited sources, for safety warnings, and for clarity. AI is a tool, not the author of record, and we never publish unreviewed machine output.
4. Safety rules for health content
- Each symptom guide includes explicit “see a dentist now” red flags.
- Medication information reflects official labels and guidance; we do not give personal dosing advice.
- We do not promise cures, “3-second” fixes, or outcomes.
5. Product recommendations & affiliate links
Some articles recommend consumer products (toothbrushes, mouth guards, rinses). Picks are based on published guidance, safety, and verified owner reviews. We earn a small commission if you buy through Amazon links — this never changes our ranking, and we disclose it at the top of every article containing such links. We do not accept payment for placement.
6. Updates and corrections
Articles are re-checked at least every 120 days and whenever guidance changes. The “Last updated” date on each article is accurate. If you find an error, contact us; verified corrections are made promptly.
7. Independence
GoFixTeeth.com is independently owned. No dental brand, clinic or manufacturer reviews or approves our content.
