teeth

Ok..so here’s a question…
This girl has about 25 cavities in her teeth she’s 14 years of age and she has crooked teeth. AND IT’S NOT ME (a sisters friend)…and she’s wondering if her teeth will last till she’s very old.

Re: teeth

Jeez! Hope she's had all of them filled. She needs to take good care and go for regular check ups.

That reminds me I need to make appointments for all of us.

So yeah, her dentist should be able to provide a good oral care regimen for her. She'll be fine if no further mess happens.

:bummer: please send her to a dentist

Re: teeth

All is not lost... Some people have no cavities but have bad gums because of periodontal disease, and their teeth may appear all white and healthy but they'll fall of eventually because of the gum disease!

Re: teeth

ew^...yeah she went to the dentist...but i feel sorry for her!

thanks for sharing your life story but stick to the topic please :p

LOL...I don't mind hearing other stuff. I just wanted to gain some knowledge...and TLK would you mind not bother replying...ur the one who needs to stick to the topic!

such a junior member, such a deep observation about me ..

you gonna go a very long way dude :lifey:

Re: teeth

Oho, doesn't she have toothaches, why doesn't she go to the DR? If its a matter of cost almost all cities have a program for low income families. The thing with teeth is that they never just get better it gets worst and costly.

Keep your comments to yourself.

Are you saying that junior members…skip that.

So true.

TLK, periodontal disease occurs at 40+, aap ki umer ke logoon ko fiqar karni chahiyeh ;)

Fortunately, a friend of mine is becoming a dentist and I asked her! She said yes, they will last provided she gets the recommended fillings done, asap. The cool thing is, fillings make sure your teeth get augmented, because they are just cavities which can be repaired. As far as crooked teeth, its just an appearance thing, and shouldnt have any say in whether they last long or not.

^^I'll let her know!! Thanks.
