SPOONFUL OF SUGAR

I have a really small mouth cavity.  I should have had my rear molars taken out and replaced with implants or partial dentures in my late teens, because there was never enough room in my head for all my grinding teeth to fit.  Over decades of friction against each other, one by one they have crushed one another, and broken, often ( Read more... )

I hope by now the tooth is out, and you're finally experiencing some relief? *hugs*

Hope your dental woes are solved soonly!
