I have really bad teeth and....?

I have really bad teeth, braces won't help, and I'm only 18 so I don't want dentures. I can't even smile, talk, or laugh because I'm so embarassed by my teeth. There is this guy I like and I don't want to even meet him because of my teeth. Also, I have never been to a dentist in my life so I'm scared to death to go. What should I do?

I have really bad teeth and....?
Braces will help your teeth. You say you've never been to a dentist before, so how can you know that they won't?





I realise that getting braces can be quite a daunting affair, but I can promise you that the time spent with them on is well worth it.





Finally, there's nothing to fear from the dentist. Dentists are just people, like everyone else. You can talk to them like other people if you have any doubts or worries and they will treat you with respect and dignity.





I hope this helped.
Reply:go to the dentist!!!!!!! their nt scarry their relle nice.
Reply:Go to the dentist, get em ripped out and get dentures, thats my advice
Reply:If you have never been to a dentist, how do you know that braces won't help? You definitely need to get to a dentist and have an oral exam and cleaning. Then ask to be referred to a cosmetic dentist. You'd be amazed at the things that can be done.
Reply:Don't be scared. My Uncle is a Dentist. They know there is a common fear of going, and they will go out of their way to make sure your first visit is a pleasant one. If anything else, you'll be no worse off going to the Dentist then you are now, and at least then you'll know what other options are out there :)
Reply:what kind of bad is really bad if it isn't about braces





Missing front teeth?





You are 18 %26amp; never been to a dentist?


SHAME ON YOUR PARENTS!!!
Reply:when I was little I broke my teeth and they were horrible. The dentist is my best friend now. If your teeth are that bad you should go to a dentist and ask about veneers. look them up, their porcelain teeth and they make your teeth look flawless. their pricey but see if you can get it covered with insurance. If your teeth are that bad just swallow your pride and go.
Reply:actually braces will help...alot
Reply:Get braces, If you haven;t been to the dentist then you don't know if you can get braces.





It will make you feel a lot better to get your teeth fixed. It is only scary if you imagine it will be. Just be calm, the dentist is not a bad place.
Reply:If you really have that bad of teeth...not to be rude or anything but i hope you got alot of money cos its gonna be a hell of alot to fix them...like you said you dont want dentures so im guessing you have alot of missing teeth? thats the hardest thing to fix...but you should go or you will never have a normal life...good luck
Reply:You have to go to the Dentist, because this is the only choice you have got and he is the only person who helps you to get rid from your problem........................... but counsel with a good Dentist!!!!!!!!
Reply:Find a dentist that specializes in invisalign and you can straighten your teeth without people noticing that much. It does cost money, though, but probably not as much as you'd think and it isn't as painful and tedious as braces.

Reply:Getting Pearly Whites is a little hard to get especially if that person have grayish-blue teeth, who drinks caffeine and who smokes.. Guess who?





You know in the old days they use COAL as for whitening their teeth and it does work but i wouldn't do it if i were you but if you want.. then be my guest.. i also heard some people use BAKING SODA and mix them with toothpaste, just sprinkle baking soda on your toothpaste before brushing your teeth.





Also some people use HYDROGEN PEROXIDE(never to swallow any) and use them as for mouthwash make sure to add some water or you'll increase of having a sensitive teeth and I'm sure you don't want that and you can also pour some hydrogen peroxide into a glass and mix it with some water and you can put your toothbrush in it to keep the germs away from the brush, and remember to put your brush 6 feet away from the toilet because a lot of germs floating around.








After brushing your teeth don't forget to FLOSS, you can floss before or after brushing your teeth and flossing is good and never forget to floss, twice a day is enough. And keep away from citric acid eg. oranges, lemon or juices for a while but if you do want to drink any juices just make sure use straw and put it to the end of your tongue to keep the liquid from touching your teeth especially your molars or the back of your teeth.. Eat apples instead,eating spinach and drinking water is also a good way to clean your teeth,





Take a good multiple vitamin such as the time-released brands found at GNC to keep teeth well nurtured from within.





Things Needed And Things To Do:


1.COAL(i don't think you need it.. but believe me it works)


2.Baking Soda,


3.Hydrogen peroxide mix w/ Water,


4.Flossing,


5.New %26amp; Clean tooth brush(make sure change every 3 months of use)


6.Good Toothpaste like "Colgate"


7.Milk is for strong teeth, too you know..





well The real ANSWER is actually to Go to the dentist... and dont worry about it..go or you'll be feeling embarrassed for your whole life.
Reply:Aim a Dentist and my advice for you is to go and have your oral cavity and teeth checked by the Dentist. I know it will cost you some dollar but its your health that comes first. If you like I can give you advice personally. Just email me and I will do the best I can to answer your query.

How bad is it for your overall health to have bad teeth?

I know it's not good...but there are people I know that I am genuinely concerned about and I've heard that it can be bad for your health when you do not take care of your teeth. I know someone who doesn't ever get their teeth cleaned let alone even go to a dentist their whole life. The teeth are pretty gross and they have bad breath. I love them dearly, but do I say anything?

How bad is it for your overall health to have bad teeth?
Bad Teeth Equal Bad Heart. People with more bacteria in their mouths also have more evidence of heart disease, people with more bacteria that cause periodontal disease also had thicker carotid arteries -- a strong indicator of clogged blood vessels.





This is the most direct evidence yet that gum disease may lead to stroke or cardiovascular disease and because gum infections are preventable and treatable, taking care of your oral health could very well have a significant impact on your cardiovascular health.





the bacteria that cause the gum disease may spread into the bloodstream and stimulate the immune system, causing inflammation that results in the clogging of arteries. Hardening of the arteries involves the inflammation process, and other studies have strongly linked heart disease with inflammation.
Reply:If it gets bad enough, and you lose teeth, you may have trouble eating certain foods. Emotionally, you will have to deal with people avoiding you, and a general loss of respect for you with your nasty teeth and rancid breath.





And your sexual health is sure to suffer as you won't be getting any practice.
Reply:The bad breath will be the bad teeth, yes bad teeth out poisons into the system and can cause brain damage and all sorts of illnesses. May be these people have not got the money to go to the dentist, so buy them some mouth gargle and pick the right time, in private to tell them, may be you could help find a cheap dentist
Reply:i've read it can lead to pancreatic cancer
Reply:if you have bad teeth, it can effect you in many ways. for example, it can effect your heart.

I want to join army but i have bad teeth will they help me fix them?
8 yrs ago my hubby enlisted, he had bad teeth, etc... and they just signed him up, then pulled the tooth that was bad, did a few fillings and sent him to his permanent party! this was after basic. I think that you will be fine, but please don't enlist for less that 20K for 3-4 yrs. make sure your gi bill is 30K, and you get station of choice. these are musts!!! I am glad to see that some young people want to join, not just for the money
Reply:I dont know where you are but here the army pays for dental and other health work for you - but - if it can be considered that it is a health issue - and they do believe now that bad teeth lead to other health problems - they may not accept you in the first place. only way to be sure is to ask them and have a medical.
Reply:may qualify for enlistment--check with a recruiter.

My teeth are really bad (I know it's gross) I want to do something about it and have heard about implants?

I have really bad teeth and yes, I know it's disgusting (which is why I want to do something about it).





I have heard about in America they can remove all of your teeth and put in implants (not false teeth) that are permanantly in your mouth.





Can you get this done in the UK and does anyone know how much it costs? I don't mind travelling to anywhere in the UK to get it done!





Thanks

My teeth are really bad (I know it's gross) I want to do something about it and have heard about implants?
First thing frst. You better have a consultation wiht a dentist. Each dental implant done at the specialist cost around £2000. But there are other implant solutions availbe at cheaper price hence the need to see a Implantologiest or specilaist dentist to assess your case. A total implant reconstruction cost £15 000 at our practice. You can have them done abroad for much less.Check www.scanmedix.com or contact info@scanmedix.com





goodluck!
Reply:Go to a DENTIST and ask - THOUSANDS of POUNDS springs to mind
Reply:a place to start:





http://www.privatehealth.co.uk/private-d...





keep in mind thats very expensive, you talking about 300 pounds per tooth, and that's in Turkey
Reply:ABOUT A THOUSAND FIVE HUNDRED,BUT YOU WILL GET RID OF YOUR TUMMY TROUBLES.GO TO THE DENTIST AND SEE, THEY WILL CHARGE A FEE FOR AN ESTIMATE,BUT AT LEAST YOU WILL KNOW.GOOD LUCK.
Reply:Yes, you can get them done in the UK. I watch "ten years younger" and I know they do that over here. You will have to go and see your dentist and then they can refer you to a specialist (cosmetic dentist). Or you could call the show and perhaps get it done for free????
Reply:Maybe just having your teeth crowned/capped would give you the results you require but it depends on the condition of your gums. I've had two done and am very pleased with the results, however it was £350 per tooth.





Go and find a good private dentist or a good NHS dentist who does private work. They will explain the options and the costs.
Reply:You should go to the dentest every 6 months so they can check up on your teeth. Also brush them 2-3 times a day with a good toothpaste like colgate or aquafresh. Get a mouthwash that can kill all of the rest of the plaque after your brush. If you want you can get special teeth polish called pearl drops. It makes your teeth shine. YOUR TEETH WILL LOOK GREAT!!!!
Reply:You need to see dentist for a proper consultation and they will advise. But if implants are anything along the lines of cosmetic dentistry, then you would be looking at spending AT LEAST a couple of hundred pounds per tooth plus the prep work before hand so all in all a good few thousand
Reply:Yeah have had a couple done myself after I had to have a couple of teeth extracted





You need to have existing teeth pulled ie removed, then wait 6 months for your gums to heal over





They basically screw a new tooth into your mouth. Sounds gross but is much more long term and a better look than capping.





Loads of downsides tho - 6 months without teeth (have them done in stages), they cost around £1200 each tooth, the NHS wont contribute and not many dentists do them, its very specialised
Reply:Consult a dentist who will let you know of available treaments and cost.
Reply:FYI, if you could not take care of your real teeth, chances are that your implants will fail. They still require as much, if not more attention than your real teeth do. If you are going to spend that much money, I would hope you take care of them. PLUS- here in America, its about $2000 per implant...this is not including the crown that your general dentist will fabricate which is about $7-800 dollars. You have 28 teeth in your mouth, so this will be REALLY expensive. This is not including the extractions of existing teeth, reshaping of the ridge (aveloplasty), and possible bone grafts which are more common than not with multiple extractions. Another alternative is to remove the existing teeth and place 4 implants where your 'I' teeth are ( your cainine, vampire teeth). You can have full upper and lower dentures that snap into these implants and keep them in place. I hope this helps you.

My boyfriend has bad teeth and doesn't have dental insurance!?

My boyfriend can't brush his teeth anymore because it hurts too bad. I convinced him to let me look at them a while back and all of is top front teeth have holes in them (probably cavities) and his bottom ones aren't looking much better. I talk him in to using mouthwash sometimes because it's the only thing I can think of that won't hurt too bad.





He's only 22 and I'm afriad that as soon as I can get him into a dentist, they will just pull all of his teeth. Is there anything I can do?

My boyfriend has bad teeth and doesn't have dental insurance!?
you can look for a dental school that does work for a reduced price, or a free dental clinic. you can also look for a dentist that can finance his dental work. either way the cheapest thing they can do is pull the teeth. if you dont want that they you better do something quick because he can get an infection in his jaw or get some other disease and even worse die. they may have to pull some teeth but he can also get caps, bridges or implants.





whatever you decide to do i wish you luck
Reply:I have the same problem with bad teeth and no insurance. I would get him into the dentist as soon as possible though, cuz the longer you wait the worse it will be! He might be able to apply for some health assistance program like medicaid if he qualifies. That could be something to look into. But DON'T WAIT!!!
Reply:get some then...





It's worth it...








Ugly teeth are minging!
Reply:Some dentists have free clinics. Check into that.
Reply:get him to a dentist that will accept payents or have him apply for the medical card with the state..they cover dental..he really should get it checked becasue it may be a sign of something else wrong with his health or something with his health may be causing this...have him even go to a reg doctor first and if bad enough the extraction may be covered by insuracne...but this can casue infection, weight loss if it is not dealt with...living with constant mough pain is tough to swallow.
Reply:Welcome to the club,, I had such pain and the dentist gave me an estimate of $8000. to make it all right, so I said pull it,, cost me $250. a few at a time,,now I learn to eat without teeth..thats the new America..be proud to be toothless..
Reply:Are you from the US? I have offended someone on here by assuming they were, when it turned out they were from Hungary. Whatever you can do, if you're in the US you can find insurance coverage. If he goes to the state, like Social Services has in California, he can find medical benefits that fit into his wages and earnings. If anything, go in and ask what billing options the dentist has. He may have a severe infection in his gums. If allowed to go on for too long, the infection spreads into the blood stream and it can be life-threatening. Don't hesitate! The worst that can happen is that he will have to have caps or bridges to replace the bad teeth. He may even have an infection into the bone of his jaw if it's been going on long enough, which I think warrants surgery. Not sure though... but it's still dangerous. Having your teeth replaced is better than risking your life!
Reply:unfortunatly without dental insurance it will be extremely expensive to get all the teeth fixed. you can try to get a loan to cover the costs or do it a few teeth at a time if you can afford that. I feel for you, I don't have the greatest teeth and even with dental insurance, I can't usually afford to go to the dentist when I need to. he needs at least to go to the dentist to see what you can do about the pain, like maybe an antibiotic for infection and maybe a pain killer. Be VERY careful with the pain killers though if he gets them. Only take recommended dosages, taking to many at a time can cause SO MANY problems!!!!
Reply:Well...He definitely needs to go see a dentist ASAP! I will give you the website of a discount dental plan that is available in the U.S. It's a great savings of up to 80% on dental services. He can sign up online and look up providers by zip code,etc.

I have had bad teeth for a long time, on the 18, of may i had them removed and i got dentures.?

my teeth were really decayed, and they had been for a very long time. i bled alot when i had my teth pulled, but that was good because i figure i have alot of toxins in my body, because of the fact my teeth had been bad for so long. i would like to know if there is something that i can do to clean the rest of the toxins out of my system, now that i don't have all those bad teeth in my mouth anymore. i thought one time that i had heard of a tea that you could drink that would clean out your system. thank- you for your time.

I have had bad teeth for a long time, on the 18, of may i had them removed and i got dentures.?
The body cleans that all out on it's own. Just make sure you drink plenty of water. I am sorry to hear about your teeth. But am very glad that you are OK and there are such things as dentures. Don't allow yourself to feel down for having lost your teeth. I have a cousin you had to have all of hers removed at the age of 25. She had a gum infection. Like I said the body will clean that all out. Had you needed something they would have given you antibiotics.
Reply:Lemon water, tea both are antioxidants that clean the toxins out of the body
Reply:have a deep tissue massage and then drink alot of water for the next two days. You will notice that your urine is brighter and it will probably have a pungent order, this is due to the toxins that were unblocked by the massage. It really does work. Wonderful news too that you got your teeth fixed. That would be a dream come true for me.
