Woman Glues Her Teeth Back In Place To Avoid The Dentist | The Truth About Your Teeth | Tonic

I waited nearly ten years to get my braces and now that I have them, I've noticed that I'm smiling a lot more. Your smile really does impact your confidence, especially when you're so focused on beauty standards. :/

[@mia-nj9rz]

i’ve been trying to get braces for nearly 6 years now. ive been to countless appointments and the public dental hospital said i need a jaw reconstruction surgery. i’m so scared. i don’t want the surgery, only the braces. i’ve done research and it’s said to get braces BEFORE surgery, but i only want the braces, no surgery. ugh, i’m so close to giving up.

[@HotdogFlavoredDrama]

@@mia-nj9rz you might want to get the surgery first and then the braces. Braces affect the jaws as well and make them symmetrical. Right now, I’m currently fixing an over bite and trying to fix my lower and upper jaw into place due to my face being a tad asymmetrical(you can’t notice until I smile widely) it will really help.

I struggle heavily with depression, and the first thing to go for me when I lack on caring for myself is brushing my teeth. I once went to a dentist and told them and they kinda sneered at me and told me to try floss picks. It scared me from going back to the dentist for a year, but I went back last week and my hygienist was the kindest woman, who also struggled with mental health and understood my issues. I promise it’s okay. You just have to take that first step and find an understanding dental office. Taking care of your teeth helps you take care of the rest of your body. There are even apps that make brushing enjoyable instead of a chore! You can do this!

[@ScientificallyStupid]

I'm a dental hygienist (20 years) and I have struggled with my own mental health. We "dental people" are humans, too! Unfortunately, patients are right, and there can be judgement in some offices, and patients can feel it (I've worked in offices like this and it was NOT for me). I would tell anyone feeling judged to leave and find a different office. The right office is one where you're treated with compassion. It might take some time to find your "dental home", but I promise it's worth it. When you finally get the courage to walk through the door, we're really glad to see you! And we just want to help. The first step is the hardest. I'm so glad to see you're doing better, OP, and that you found an office to take good care of you.

[@hungrymakesmecranky]

what app if i may ask?

[@kr0wn.aSSaSSin]

Yeah, my severe depression stops me from caring about myself & meditation can cause a big issues. I always looked after my teeth as kid, teen & young adult. My smile was beautiful & lit up the room. But since I got to 38, living in a toxic, abusive situation, I just have stopped caring completely. I’m too ashamed to even leave the house with the state of my teeth now. At 41, it feels like my life is over.

[@OdkUs-b4h]

What does the depression have to do with brushing and hygiene?? You are just a lazy person who likes to stay unclean

[@mistressravenlilyscreepybo5493]

​@@kr0wn.aSSaSSinI'm sorry you're in a tough situation. Use this to empower and educate yourself. Peroxide can be used to rinse your teeth. You don't want any kind of mouth infection. If severe and left untreated it can spread to the brain and other organs. Ask for the gas you won't care what they're doing because you won't feel pain and may get the giggles. Best of luck and never let your fear prevail and stop you from getting help. Peace ✌️

okay let's drop the stigma that dentures are "only for old people". it's simple thoughts like that that can stop people in the younger gen wanting to fix their teeth out of fear of "looking old", but it's definitely worth getting your teeth pulled out if it means you won't have any health complications later on in life because you delayed getting treatment. don't be afraid to get your teeth fixed if you can afford it! even if you have to travel somewhere else, do it! take the opportunity! your mouth will thank you. I wanted to add: I've heard complications can include anything from mouth infections; impacted teeth; to even worse cases such as heart disease and alzheimer's...so please, take care of yourselves as soon as y'all possibly can!!!

I had my teeth pulled at 28. After a decade of root canals, caps, fillings, extractions...I gave up. They just got worse and worse and the pain was agonizing. I got removable dentures and I'm SO happy. I do not regret it ever. No one knows and I'm 37 now. They don't just "fall out" if they fit right. Eating certain things can be a challenge, but I can eat almost anything I want without any trouble. I love my dentures, am thankful for them and never having to worry about excruciating pain that pops up on a Friday night knowing dentists are closed on the weekend, or that the extraction doctor isn't available anywhere. And I have a pretty smile now. I recommend it, a million times over.

In the old days medieval to Victorian Times people died from teeth. That's right: their death certificate read "teeth". the tooth infection from an abscess spread to their brain, heart or lungs or other organs or blood and killed them.

Pandemic has been a great excuse not to see mine hut when restrictions were lifted I booked an appointment straight away!

@@letsgoalready5515 Not sure if u know, but they make different kinds of floss to get into different areas of your mouth. You can use straight floss wrapped around your fingers, or u can use a pic. For those unfamiliar, it's floss attached to little plastic pics. They look like little hand saws or a "C" Clamp! 😂 Not sure where u live either. I'm in US and Wal-Mart or Dollar Tree (and probably any drugstore) sells them by the bag. I'm currently having similar dental problems and I floss every single day (probably several times). The brand I'm using is called "Plackers" and it's very easy to get into back teeth w/them. Also, to brush around back teeth, only use soft/med bristled toothbrush. Buy one w/longer bristles at head/top of toothbrush. This helps it get into/around back teeth specifically. Glad you're getting tended to and hope this helps u find something that works for u.

The person who answers will take the first five callers for a potential afternoon appointment- but only for a quick evaluation. If that person has a dental problem that the volunteer dentist of the week feels that can repair, the appointment is made for the following Thursday. The patient has to show a W2 and any paperwork if they receive food stamps or any other benefits. Then, the lucky 3 patients of the week get to come back one full week later to hopefully get treated.

From 19-24 I had free dental care and my half in half out 4 wisdoms removed for free. People say going to uni is a waste but it clearly save me a fortune in dental bills and dental pain. I'm nearly 40 and I've continued see the dentist every 6-9 even in the pandemic. Clearly your boss missed that memo at Uni about going to the dentist.

My mom had poor dental hygiene growing up because it was never something her family enforced, but she became a diligent tooth brusher in her 30's but the damage was already done. Multiple teeth pulled and crowns. Her experience really motivated me to brush my teeth and take good care of them.

Also a good method, which they didn't mention, if you have no milk around, is to spit in a clean cup and keep the tooth in that spit. Usually it'll be mixed with blood though and not very nice to hold. But it also works. Maybe unnecessary to mention, it needs to be the spit of the tooth-loss-victim.

[@RinLikesFish]

I have once had an experience with a dentist that scarred me. I have anxiety already and that made it worse. But I went back and found a new dentist. I don’t think some of these people realize that it’s all about finding the right dentist. The first couple visits with my current dentist, I was having panic attacks and crying the whole way through. But they were calm and patient with me. I still don’t like the dentist, but my current dentist really helped my fears. And pain is something you have to go through to get good teeth. So it’s really all about how you clean your teeth, and the dentist. There are good dentists out there. And some people just have to find the right one :)

Congratulations to you for overcoming your fears, and just getting on with it. That fear immobilizes you, and so you do nothing. It’s AMAZING isn’t it, to have a great smile AND take care of your teeth. My dentist: If you want to keep your teeth, brush every night. If you want to keep your friends, brush every morning! 😁

[@VbaeCakes]

13:30 he's saying all you need to do is brush good two times a day, but you also NEED to floss. You need to floss every night and you need to floss correctly to avoid cavities between your teeth.

[@kateh6706]

The British Dental Association and the NHS both consider flossing to be of little value unless you have extremely tight together teeth, which isn’t a common problem in GB.

[@the_rachel_sam]

@@kateh6706 strange. If you are already in the early stages of gum disease, there is a lot of loose tissue for bacteria and food to get trapped under, which flossing helps to remove. Do they at least recommend a waterpik?

[@kateh6706]

@@the_rachel_sam nope. The British dental association doesn’t recommend any kind of flossing at all. Most people floss incorrectly and they can actually cause more damage than it helps in some cases. Again we Americans tend to have tighter teeth that are closer together so flossing is more important for us.

[@kateh6706]

@@nala3055 they don’t consider it super beneficial to encourage every patient to floss daily. Americans have tighter teeth and that is more of a reason to floss, but also a lot of people floss incorrectly which can do more harm than good in some cases.

[@erikevens4166]

To prevent cavities, you need to remove plaque, the transparent layer of bacteria that coats the teeth. The best way to do this is by brushing your teeth twice a day and flossing at least once a day. Brushing also stimulates the gums, which helps to keep them healthy and prevent gum disease.
