Editorial Policy

Last updated: 21 November 2025

This Editorial Policy explains how content is created, reviewed, and maintained on https://brightsmilementor.com, operated by BrightSmileMentor.

Because the Website covers dental and oral health topics, we recognize the importance of accuracy, clarity, and responsibility. This policy is intended to help readers understand our approach to content quality and integrity.

1. Mission and Audience

BrightSmileMentor aims to provide clear, easy-to-understand educational content about dental treatments, dentures, oral care, and related topics. Our primary audience includes:

  • Patients and individuals seeking simple explanations about dental and oral health topics;
  • People who are considering or already using dentures and prosthetics;
  • Anyone looking for patient-friendly information about cosmetic dentistry, oral hygiene habits, and similar themes.

Our mission is to reduce confusion and fear around dental treatments by delivering information in plain language, while encouraging readers to seek personalized advice from licensed dental professionals.

2. Who Creates the Content

The Website is founded and led by:

BrightSmileMentor
Owner: Ayoub Azouzi (Prosthodontic Technician)

Content is primarily written and overseen by the owner, drawing on professional experience as a dental technician and on reputable sources such as clinical guidelines, professional associations, and credible health organizations.

In the future, we may involve additional contributors (writers, editors, or subject-matter experts). Contributors will be expected to follow this Editorial Policy and uphold the same standards of accuracy and clarity.

3. Use of Sources and Evidence

We aim to base health-related content on trustworthy sources, including but not limited to:

  • Guidelines and statements from recognized dental and medical organizations;
  • Reputable educational institutions and professional associations;
  • Peer-reviewed articles, where accessible and relevant;
  • Standard textbooks and professional reference materials.

Whenever appropriate, we may mention or link to external resources so that readers can explore topics further. However, external links do not imply endorsement, and external content is subject to change without our control.

4. Readability and Plain Language

We aim to write in plain, accessible language, especially for readers without a medical or dental background. To support this goal, we:

  • Prefer simple explanations over complex jargon;
  • Explain technical terms when they are necessary;
  • Use headings, lists, and short paragraphs to improve readability.

Our goal is that readers can understand the essential information without needing specialized training in dentistry or medicine.

5. Fact-Checking and Review

Before publication, content is reviewed for:

  • Basic factual accuracy and consistency;
  • Clarity and logical structure;
  • Alignment with our mission and with the general standards of responsible health communication.

Because medical and dental knowledge evolves, information may become outdated over time. We cannot guarantee that every article always reflects the most current research or guidelines, but we aim to periodically revisit important content and update it when significant changes are needed.

6. Use of AI and Digital Tools

We may use digital tools, including AI-assisted writing and research aids, to support the content creation process (for example, to generate ideas, draft outlines, or check grammar and structure).

However:

  • AI-generated or assisted content is always reviewed, edited, and approved by a human before publication;
  • Final responsibility for the accuracy, tone, and appropriateness of content lies with the human editor or owner, not with any AI system;
  • AI tools do not replace professional judgment or human oversight.

7. Independence from Advertisers and Affiliates

While the Website may use advertising and affiliate links to generate revenue, editorial content is not dictated by advertisers or affiliate programs.

In particular:

  • We do not accept payment in exchange for changing core health-related claims or concealing significant risks;
  • We strive to keep recommendations aligned with what we believe to be reasonable and honest, based on available information and experience;
  • Any sponsored or paid content will be clearly disclosed as such.

For more detail, please see our Advertising Policy and Affiliate Disclosure.

8. Conflicts of Interest

Where a potential conflict of interest exists (for example, if we have a financial relationship with a brand that is mentioned in an article), we aim to disclose this in a clear manner within the relevant content or through our affiliate and advertising disclosures.

We believe that transparency about such relationships is essential for maintaining trust with our readers.

9. Updates, Corrections, and Feedback

We recognize that no content is perfect and that errors or outdated information can occur. When we become aware of mistakes, we aim to correct them as promptly as reasonably possible.

We welcome constructive feedback from readers. If you spot an error, unclear explanation, or outdated information, please let us know so we can review and improve the content.
