Is it possible to not have tooth cavity for whole life?

Posted on June 12, 2011

So i am a person who really takes care of my oral hygiene, but its not say i will floss, gargle listerine and brush my teeth like 6 times a day... i do keep it a minimum of 2 times of thorough teeth brushing with fluoride toothpaste for when i wake up and before i go to bed. I strictly have to brush my teeth everyday twice because its become a part of me. if i dont brush my teeth, especially before bed, i feel uneasy and that somthing is missing. i will occasionally floss my teeth when i feel like it or maybe 1 or 2 times week or if theres something stuck between my teeth. I dont use mouthwash at all, i'll just give my mouth a thorough rinse of water. So thats about my daily regime of oral hygiene. I've never had a tooth decay, cavity, or holes in my teeth in my life till now but i was just wondering, can you really not get tooth cavities for your whole life or should a person have it atleast once? i have a feeling that this is something people can't escape and they would experience it atleast a few times in their life. Also, with my current ways of oral hygiene, will i be able to escape cavities for life?

Too much fluoride, not enough..
Too much calcium, not enough...
Tooth decay ...
High fever as a child, and the antibiotics that treated it...

Has anyone researched sodium fluoride in drinking water as mind control?

Posted on March 10, 2011

According to one single article I read on the web, and it is the only one I found but it seemed genuine, sodium flouride is psychoactive in humans and is a type of anger reducer. This could be a good thing I suppose in limited circumstances on an individual basis with informed consent. But the article said adding it to drinking water to cut back on tooth decay (we can all use flouride toothpaste for ourselves, after all, thank you very much) was just a pretext to make us accept the additive in our water. The real reason for it being added to water is that it subduing us all to accept in an unquestioning way being directed about, as it has a very specific effect on a small part of the brain that is to do with anger (so the article said...cannot find the article right now, but it is still on the net I assume). Apparently the Nazi's used it on their concentration camp vicitims for this very reason. Great huh? But I would obviously like to get this report confirmed if possible. Makes me want to buy a water distiller; but the article says after one years exposure to sodium flouride the damage is permanent...but I don't feel different. Have I always been this submissive?

Is fluoride poison, or just conspiracy?

Posted on March 8, 2011

http://www.quackwatch.com/03HealthPromotion/fluoride.html This article basically says that fluoride is 'safe' and 'necessary' for tooth decay prevention

This video says fluoride is BAD news.

Which is correct? And why...

Bulimia and dental hygiene: I need help!!?

Posted on February 22, 2011

Okay, I am going to tell you all my full story.

I was bulimic for about 8 months or so. I was normal weight, but I thought I was fat, so I turned to eating disorders. I was anorexic for the beginning few of those months, too. Because I was already small, I only lost about 15 pounds, but I was so proud. But I've been eating better and I haven't been vomiting for about a month and a half now. Yay!!! :) however, I did gain back all of the weight, but I don't really care, because this happened:

I skipped out on dentists appointments for about 2 years before I went to the dentist again about a month ago. At that appointment, he told me that I had 4 cavities! And I had never had a cavity before, so I knew it was because my enamel had softened. He told my mom that the erosion was due to some type of acid (which I know is stomach acid), so he didn't find out about the bulimia. My back molar is also chipped because the enamel softened so much. I have to get root canal and a crown on the chipped tooth, and I have to get all of the cavities filled, all together costing around 00 because of my bulimia. Totally not worth it! Now I'm going to a specialist who is going to give the root canal. Now, here are my questions.

- what do I do if my dentist/specialist asks if I have an eating disorder? I do NOT NOT NOT want to tell either of them, so what could I say that would be another probable cause for the cavities and tooth decay?
- I've been disorder free for a while now, but how long does it take for my body to start recovering and going back to norma,?
