    My teef hurt :(

    Went back to the dentist for a follow up on Saturday. I have always been religious about brushing well twice a day. I'm flossing now, and even using mouthwash! I hafta get 10 fillings, have already had one tooth removed, and I also need to get my wisdom teeth out. That's fine, it had been 12 years since I went to a dentist, I expected some damage.

    DH on the other hand RARELY brushes his teeth - probably 3 or 4 times a WEEK I teased him and said they were gonna take all his teeth and give him dentures It had been 15 years since his last dentist appointment, and you know what he has to get done?

    3 small fillings. 3!!

    The dentist even said to him that she hopes our kids get HIS teeth and not mine!!

    To make it worse, I only got 4 fillings on Saturday, and one of them was so sore She gave me the needle 4 times before giving me a horse needle or something, nothing else was numbing the tooth! So now the left part of my jaw is just aching and throbbing

    Somebody call the waaaaahmbulance and take me away

    Hey Keike,

    I have crappy teeth too - so many fillings I think they are just week or something :S My DH is exactly the same, brushes at night & that is all...apart from having yellowish teeth, his are fine... annoys the heck out of me.

    I hope your pain eases soon, maybe just give the flossing a break & ease up on the brushing until the pain settles down.

    Cannot call the waaaaahmbulance as it is on another job.

    I know the feeling, the soreness will go away but take something for the pain as this will really help and usually after one dose that is enough.

    Makes you sick that some people have good teeth while others don't )
