Do you go to the dentist? Hows your mouth doin so far? Are u scared? Did parents give you shitty teeth? Hows your dental hygiene? Any HORRIFIC injury?

[DrPepper12]

Yes I go for cleanings and anything dentist says to do

Yes I go when i HAVE TO

Yes I go in emergencies & am scared shitless every time

No I dont go until there's a problem

For USA: I can't go, no insurance/too expensive

I just went the other day and surprisingly healed 3 cavities on my own (they were really small). The dentist was shocked 😂

[DrPepper12]

I didn't even know that could happen!!! Great news!!!

[Apple1996]

Yeah I've been using mineral clay toothpaste to heal them

@Apple1996 I used to use Bondo.

@exitseven lol not that

[NathanDavis]

so far... normal check-ups every day

what I am wary about is having an accident... and get something broken or messed up...

that doesn't like fun at all, lol... (KnockingOnWoodAMillionTimes)

I have not been in a few years. My dentist retired and I got a new job that did not have much time off. I am looking for a new dentist now.

[DrPepper12]

My plan has a list of covered dentists. Maybe start there? I have also put out Qs into my community FB page for recommendations and been successful that way too

My wife started seeing a new dentist last year. I have been trying to call them but we are playing phone tag. I will try again tomorroe.

[DrPepper12]

Good plan! Don't forget to floss before bed tonight!

[exitseven]

@DrPepper12 i floss every night. My old dentist used to complain that he will never get rich off me.

Thanks for the MHO😎

[DishLady]

Yup. Fine, thanks, and yours? Nope. Nope. Perfecto? Nope. (My goodness.)

[DrPepper12]

Just had 1st root canal last week. Not recommended. I got that and a few fillings and 3 crowns. I blasted out my two front teeth at home gym when let go of cable.

[DishLady]

OOOH, that's a doozie. Sorry you had to go through that. You ok? Three crowns... so you're an emperor now, right? 😂

Oh, shoot. That's pretty serious. Were they able to make a smooth correction? Do you need to wear an invisalign for a while?

[DrPepper12]

No nothing like that They just put in a crown and for the front two teeth They put this weird substance that hardens in ultraviolet light and then shaped it to look like natural teeth. It was actually pretty amazing stuff.

[DishLady]

Oooh! Yes yes. My ex had to get that one time. But brush and whiten them regularly to make sure they keep the natural color. His turned with his coffee and he didn’t take great care of it. He ultimately had it replaced I think.

[Nikki1989]

I have a regular check-up every 6 months.

[DrPepper12]

Excellent!! Hope its all good!!

[Lowiu]

Yes I go twice a year for checkups

[DrPepper12]

Excellent! Hope its good news every time!!

[Lowiu]

So far it always was except when I was a teenager and had braces

[EmmaMary]

[DrPepper12]

Excellent!! Hope its great news every time!!
