Question:

Toot extractions and a root canals? is this normal for a 27 year old?

ok i normally do not post stuff like this on the internet but i am at a last resort. i am a 27 year old female with horrible teeth issues. I just had 2 teeth removed (wisdom tooth & molar) and now i have to have a root canal on another tooth. and most likely many more procedures. my teeth look fine from the front, but i am just overwhelmingly embarrassed that i have to have all of this work done. i know its for the best but i am hoping that someone else is going through the same!!


Answers:

Yes this is normal. Some people just have worse teeth than others. I am far more fastidious with my tooth care than my husband is - I brush and floss twice a day and see my dentist every 6 months and I have still had to have 4 root canals (I am in my 30s). He doesn't see a dentist for 5 years and he doesn't even need a filling! My family just have bad teeth while his has good teeth.

Ask your dentist if there is anything more you can be doing to look after your teeth but otherwise you just have to "grin and bear it".
