Question: Is it ok that I haven't been to the dentist for 2 years!?
I am 23!. My teeth are fine at the moment!.I have had braces for 4 years 3 years ago, my wisdom teeth have been removed 2 years ago and no major problems with my teeth and I brush my teeth 3 times a day, floss once a day and use mouth wash once a week!.I don't eat too many lollies or sweet foods!.I don't have any money to go to the dentist at the moment!.Is there anything else I can do to look after my teeth!?

You should go to the dentist every six months - especially important as you have braces (which possibly should have been removed by now)!. You might think there is nothing wrong with your teeth but a dentist will spot things that you'd miss!. As for cost, if you are in the UK, check ups are free!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
As long as your not having any problems then your fine, just go for a check up when you can!.
Just never do what I did, I had minor problems that I ignored and didn't go to the dentist!. This has lead to me being in a lot of pain, having and infection and a root canal!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Just go for a checkup when you can!. At least once a year at best but you sound like your up to par with your dental care!. Im sure you'll be fine until you can muster up the funds to see a dentist!. Good luck to you and your pearly whites!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

The fees for those services will be from Free, to very Low!.!.!.depending on you income!.!.!.Call the Clinic and get an appointment!. Good luck and I wish you well!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
In my opinion, it is ok!. I havent been to the dentist even longer than you!. And recently when I do check my teeth at the dentist, it was fine!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
My niece is in college and if the age were different I'd think you were her!. She just emailed me the same question a few weeks ago!. She actually included a contact problem too!.!.!. lol (she hasn't been to the eye doc for new contacts either)!. We found her a very inexpensive benefit plan that cost her less than $15 a month and she was able to save a lot of money when she went to the dentist last week!. I think she said the basic cleaning was about $12 instead of $110!. She said that they did xrays and they were $50 instead of $140!. She's calling the eye doctor next week to get the eye problem taken care of!. We found her benefit plan on this website: http://www!.HealthAndDentalOptions!.com
There were no commitments with it either!. She was able to sign up and use it the same day if she wanted and she could cancel at anytime!. In fact they told her she'd get her money back if she needed to cancel that first month!. She's going to use it for her eyes and then probably drop it after that!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
