Bad teeth run in my family and even though I really take care of them, I had one crack and fall apart two weeks ago! Thankfully the nerve is dead and it doesnt hurt and im waiting for medicaid to approve getting it capped.

Ugh I feel ya. My gums have basically retracted and the ONE part always bleeds. I keep having nightmares of the tooth where it bleeds falling out and wake up and press my tongue against it so I can see if it's loose xD

My gums were horrible during the first part of my pregnancy, and my teeth always felt dirty, even after brushing. Make sure you're getting plenty of Vitamin C, D,and calcium in your diet. I heard somewhere that your body will pull minerals from your teeth if you are deficient. I switched to a sensitive, enamel protecting toothpaste, and started eating more citrus and diary, and everything improved alot

Well they usually want me to get root canals but I won't be able to until a few months and I'm in pain so I'm making them take it out. But I'm getting all my teeth fixed while I have medicade
