Thanks to TikTok, millions of people now know that dentists can tell whether a patient has recently been engaging in oral sex.
TikToker Cian McBrien shared to his followers he just found out that dentists know when someone has just given a blow job.
“JUST FOUND OUT THE DENTIST CAN FIND OUT WHETHER SOMEONE HAS GIVEN [HEAD] OR NOT,” he said in the short video.
@cianmcbrien IM CRYING #fyp
A lot were questioning whether this was a fact, but all skepticism went away when dental experts came on the app and confirmed McBrien’s claim.
Dentist @thyrants responded saying “Yeah, sometimes we can tell” but “we aren’t going to really give anyone hassle about it.”
He said people in his profession don’t put too much attention to signs of recent blow jobs except for when a patient is a little too young or they see something indicative of abuse.
“And it’s usually bruising on the soft palate called petechiae. But unless the patient’s really young or shows signs of abuse, we don’t care,” he said.

Another dentist, @mandimaeee, said signs of a recent blow job will show if the one doing it goes aggressive which can cause minor bruising on the palate.
“Hey, I’m a registered dental hygienist. Let’s talk about this,” TikTok user @mandimaeee responded in another viral video. “So a friend of mine sent me this video and was like, ‘Oh my god, Is this true?’ Yes, it is.”
“…if you did it recently and you were a little bit aggressive about it … Some individuals might have, um, bruising to the palate, if you know what I’m saying. Soooo yes, we can tell,” she said.

Carter Gallo, one of the biggest personalities on the app, asked his mother, who is a dentist, about the claim and she said “totally, there are some things we just keep secret in the profession.”

In a separate video, she said she’d see high school students with visible palatal bruising, but the patients didn’t know what she had noticed.
“I used to get these high school girls that would come in Monday morning to get their teeth cleaned, and I’d ask them how their weekend was. And they’d go, “Oh, it was fine, I didn’t really do too much.” And you’re looking in their mouth and you’re thinking, Mhmm, you did a lot more than ‘not too much.’ Yeah, those were the best.” she said.
Michigan based general dentist Dr. Huzefa Kapadia had to lay the rumor to rest.
In a video that has millions of views, he admitted that dentists know if you’ve given oral sex in recent time.
“Yeah, I get this question a lot. And yeah, we know,” he admitted.
@dentite #stitch with @cianmcbrien We definitely know 🤫 #dentist#🧠#teeth#dentite#dental#weknow#documentary
He explained that a good sign would be palatal petechiae.
“Okay, here we go. Palatal petechiae. This is what it’s called. If you like, let’s say, sucking on a lollipop. One or two here or there, not a big deal. But let’s say you like to suck on multiple, multiple, multiple, multiple lollipops all the time — you got a problem.
“It’s gonna cause palatal petechiae, which is seen right here,” he said. “As you can see, bruising of the soft palate and irritation, right there.” he said.
He said patients should come to a dental appointment without having to worry about being judged as the palatal sign is not much of a concern unless there is suspected abuse.

“I received a ton of messages about guys and girls worried that they will get caught and their parents will find out,” he said after his video went viral.
“We won’t say anything unless we suspect abuse of some sort. So their secret is safe with us,” he added.
