My teeth are kind of crooked because my family didn't have dental insurance when i was growing up cause we were too poor. I didn't even go to a dentist until i was like 20 years old. They could be worse but i have a snaggle tooth. I feel self conscious about it and I'm jealous of people with good teeth. I want braces but I'm kind of afraid of dental stuff and I don't know if i would do the needed maintenance since I already struggle to remember to floss. I've been lucky to only have a few cavities cause I really don't take the best care of my teeth.

In my post operation haze after I got my wisdom teeth taken out I yelled at the oral surgeon for not saving my teeth like I wanted. Gimme my teeth!

When I had my wisdom teeth removed I threw up all over the place in the parking lot because fentanyl apparently doesn’t agree with me.

It's no lie, I was once like you. I had a bunch of teeth. The future brought me no relief. I knew I had to give my teeth to someone else. Chewing food is how you eat. Please bring me all of your teeth.

I got Vicodin when I got my wisdom teeth out and they must have REALLY agreed with me because it kicked off a 10 year long opiate addiction. And I didnt even get to keep my teeth!

I'm working on replacing each one with an implant so in like 10000 years when they find my skull full of screws in my jaw they'll think I'm special. Or something!

I've lost all my own teeth but as a makeshift prosthetic I bought an elephant's molar from a dodgy flea market. It fills my entire mouth and makes living in society difficult.

I've got a three screw dental bridge in place of my four upper front teeth (mtb facial trauma) and hoo boy is dental work tedious and tortuous. I'll never forget the flash of pain I felt when they stuck thick gauge needles through the hard sinewy poo poo in the roof of my mouth just to numb me up. Took four shots until I stopped weeping, from the pain of the shots. Once that was done it was quite interesting feeling the tug and clinking of the dental tool ratchets slowly boring titanium tubes into my jaw bone. I felt like a meat car being worked on at a shop, lmao. After wearing it for 7 years the screws snapped while eating fresh ciabatta the wrong way! That delicious mistake cost me roughly 1200 usd :-) Luckily I have a non insane screw system called ankylose which is designed to snap and be easily replaced without invasive procedure, it's like replacing a very small, very stubborn screw instead of having to drill your bone out again (if that hasn't withered away due to bacteria..) Seriously though Don't neglect your dental hygiene, it will save you so much money and potential future suffering it's insane Get a sonic toothbrush and use rubber intradental simulators every night, or a waterpik if you're hardcore.

I've been lucky to only have a few cavities cause I really don't take the best care of my teeth. i know a couple people who did adult braces. it was invisalign which is pretty expensive, but unless someone really scrutinizes your teeth they won't be able to tell you have it. from what they said, the only maintenance was cleaning out the insert that you wore each day, and making sure you didn't lose it when you took it out to eat. they mail you new inserts every few weeks, but otherwise the stuff they attach to your teeth is just glued on the whole time until they take it off at the end.

In many ways it's the vibrations I hate worse than the actual pain. Congrats on surviving all that. How's things today?

AEMINAL posted:... titanium... I felt like a meat car being worked on at a shop, lmao. My teeth were hosed. Like a horror movie in real life kinda hosed. I would think about my teeth constantly with despair. The dentist was a bottomless pit of money and my teeth still looked hosed. I couldn't chew food very well. I only smiled with my lips closed. gently caress that. Now my teeth look like this. I am relearning how to smile and show my teeth.

As a youth, my parents were very good about getting me to the dentist regularly. As an adult I skipped like 6-7 years and went back finally after both having dental insurance for the first time in a long time and having some mouth feels stuff change. I had three cavities but otherwise was doing ok. Still have all my wisdom teeth even. Too bad, I really like Vicodin.

I got a tooth on the bottom left pulled out some years ago. Doesn't really bother me anymore except when I eat a chip and and it shifts to that side and pokes the gum. Kinda like that Infraggable Krunk scene but maybe less harrowing. Anyway sorry I can't give it to you OP it's been gone for a while.
