Is a girl with missing teeth unattractive?

[Anonymous]

So I had to have 3 molars extracted, all of which are in the very back and you can't tell they're gone unless I open my mouth really wide.

I had to get them taken out when I was 20 because I had really bad cavities and could not afford root canals at the time. Other than that my teeth are pretty straight with no gaps or anything and I have pretty good dental hygiene. The only reason it got bad was because my mom neglected me as a child and never took me to the dentist my entire life. I was 20 when I went to the dentist for the first time. I am currently cavity-free and go to the dentist regularly.

I'm asking this because my friend (who is a guy) thought it was disturbing that I was missing 3 teeth and that for 20 years I hadn't gone to the dentist. I didn't think it was that big of a deal.

As long as you look like you have teeth when you smile, no guy should care.

Fuck, my dad didn't go to the dentist until he was in his 30s.

Not everyone can afford to take their kids to the dentist. Just gotta learn to brush/take care of your teeth on your own.

You cannot see my missing teeth when I smile but if I yawn and you look into the depths of my mouth you will notice it.

Then cover your mouth when you yawn. Problem solved.

If there was a cute girl you liked and you saw that would it change your opinion of her?

[JackKerouac77]

No, it'd be fine. They're way back there. I'd ask about her dental history out of curiosity though.

It's understandable why you had to have the teeth removed. So, I would understand your predicament.

However, any missing teeth are really more of a turn-off than a turn-on. Sorry :(

[Souma95]

No, not at all! In fact you're doing a lot better than most women I've seen who have front teeth missing. Now THAT is unattractive. Whereas in your case, one can't see them ;)

[Asker]

Yes I am lucky they were all in the back.

[Souma95]

Ignore your friend, it was pretty insensitive of him to say that. ♥

"you can't tell they're gone unless I open my mouth really wide.", no.

[Asker]

But would you want to kiss such a girl?

[Error_204]

They wouldn't even know they were.

[mistninja314]

i wouldn't care, hell the less teeth the better "wink"

[Asker]

Wow that's strange

[mistninja314]

LMAO most guys would get what i mean im sure

but naw you're good especially since the teeth are missing at the back, hell then again you'd have to be pretty shallow to turn a girl down for some missing teeth LOL as long as the rest are in pretty good shape that is

[Asker]

I am very lucky that my teeth look this good. I have even gotten compliments on my teeth by people who were unaware of me having nothing to chew with in the back >.<

I told my friend and he was weirded and grossed out. Now I'm self conscious about it and looking into getting fake teeth implants.

[mistninja314]

lmao now im wondering how you look now... but naw man dont worry about your friend at all screw him lol

but if you can get all that stuff done for little to nothing "hey its all fair game"

[Asker]

Its actually very expensive and painful. Also my dentist said I was too young and beautiful to have missing teeth. I don't know if he was scolding me or hitting on me.

[mistninja314]

LMAO OH I KNOW ABOUT HAVING NO TEETH/DENTISTS. but he was scolding you in a passive manner because most people should have good teeth until they are about 35 i guess. but people like us dont LOL

2 teeth pulled myself... i had 3 filling,2 left now since 1 tooth had a temporary type filling implanted in it for some reason SMH and it FELL OUT OH BOY the tooth ache was so painful. felt like i got kicked in the balls and couldn't move for 9 minutes intervals at a time.

the dentist office was like my home away from home my whole life LOL. but with all that being said and done i do have good teeth when it comes to size/alignment... couple of cavities though

[mistninja314]

so hey be happy the those tooth are gone and can bother you anymore and if you can chew food screw that procedure lol

[adamski24]

I wouldn't think anything about it.
