Teeth, teeth, and more teeth.?

Posted on March 28, 2011

It's a matter of opinion.

Do you think people with small teeth are hideous, or that people with large teeth are freaky?

Everything in between is considerable.
I don't think my asking this question has anything to do with my level of maturity, but thanks anyway.

I don't mean small teeth with gaps; I'm talking about just 'normal' small to medium, non-gapped teeth. :)

Whos job is it to decide regular cleaning or gingivitis cleaning?

Posted on March 19, 2011

I had to change dentists due to insurance. I went to this dentist office and had ALOT of problem. They charged me 120.00 for a filling when my insurance covers 100% and charged me for x-rays even though im covered at 100%. Before I had anymore work done I immed. changed to another office... They charged me 25.00 for copies of xrays BUT only gave me ONE xray!!

Itook care of all of the above with the office manager... here my next problem.

I had a cleaning done at this crapshoot and the hygentist told me I needed a ginivitis cleaning and she was not going to note it cause it would cost alot more. She was ROUGH!!!!! i told her it hurt and she said its supposed to! anyway I have gaps in my teeth that were NOT there before and a lower incisor is now loose!!!!!!!! I do not have gum disease and there is noooo decay in this tooth... I called the office manager and she told me to write a letter to the corp office.

WHOS dutie is it to determine what cleaning is nec? =( my tooth is loose and its her fault!

How do you fix a comb with bent "teeth"?

Posted on January 7, 2011

Like I have a very fine toothed comb and some parts are really bent so there are gaps in between teeth.
Buying a new comb is NOT an option. I borrowed my GF's sentimental comb as a back scratcher and I messed it up. I need to fix it by this weekend. Thx.

This isn't gingivitis right?

Posted on January 4, 2011

i dont keep up with flossing normally usually just once a week.
but recently ive started flossing every night.
except that one part of my teeth on the top right, bleeds when i floss.
but otherwise its fine everywhere else.
also i have braces and i just had 4 teeth pulled a few months ago and the gaps closed up (the spot where it bleeds is where one of the gaps were if it has something to do with it)

anyways, i dont know if this is just from not flossing enough but i really hope its not gingivitis since i know gingivitis has symptoms of bleeding gums. but my gums dont bleed when i brush so its not that bad. its only that one area. should i go to my dentist?

Reverse Gingivitis?

Posted on December 1, 2010

I have been wearing braces for about 2 months now that my teeth are shifting im noticing that my gums ar going back and im getting small gaps in between the teeth.
My old dentis told me i had gingivitis(2 years ago).
If this has anything to do with ging. how would i reverse it and is there any treatment?
