Teeth whitening? Tell me more

>>41042375
Good job. I was the guy with the dental hygienist gf. Brush twice a day now. And i know you wont, but try to floss and mouthwash once a day, or at least a week.

>>41042375
Jesus, why didn't you just scrape that shit off your teeth yourself?

The dentist chick said I should swap to an electric toothbrush, I thought they were memes?

I probably won't, literally will be homeless soon (but that's a different story), but I'll definitely try and make sure to brush and floss at the very least once a day.

I was told to buy this Curasept mouth wash to help with the gums being fucked with the bacteria. I got that today too, pic related.
Doing the best I can.

It wasn't a whitening. They used the vibrating metal rod thing to breakaway hardened plaque. Shit was pretty brutal

VISIT YOUR DENTIST

>>41042375
Question: How many times a day did you brush before this appointment?

>>41042481
Yeah right, you could just scrape it off with the end of a paper clip. The polisher cleans your teeth after they jack Hammer that tartar of there.

>>41042375
It'll run me about $30,000 to fix my teeth. Dentinogenesis imperfecta type 2. Shit ain't cool brehs.

>>41042657
When I started gyming and stuff, teeth care became a priority.
At least 5 times a week. But most was 1 to 2 times a day.

Calculus just can't be fixed without dentist visit so it's best to get it fixed so you can stay on top of brushing with a clean slate.

Dental student here. No you can't. The calculus is too hard and the paperclip is too pliable. If you really want to remove it yourself, use a knife. But I don't think the risk is worth potentially jamming a knife through your face.

You can buy a scraper probably at any pharmacy in a set like pic related, usually includes a few more items. I bought one that had plastic handles instead and it works fine. Just don't go around scraping too hard, most just needs soft scratching. Anything not falling off can be taken care of by your dentist. Avoid sticking it in your gums too

>>41046900
your teeth are fucking worth it dude $1000 is fucking chump change too like what the fuck

I've come to the conclusion that dentistry in general is a giant scam.

The reason I think this is because I

1. Brush my teeth like once/week, and never use tooth paste.
2. Eat tons of sour candy as well as acidic fruit juice
3. Grind my teeth a ton.

I've been doing this since 15 and I'm 29 now, and whenever I get my teeth checked by the dentist (which I get to do one a year for free) they usually tell my I have perfect dental health. Them telling me i don't have perfect dental health has happened a couple times, but the two times it actually happened were (((coincidentally))) the time I actually told them the truth(albeit sugar coated) about how I "don't brushy teeth that often, despite eating some sour stuff".

I've observed that they shut up and tell me that my teeth are fine as long as I tell them that I use all their dumb products, but if I tell them that I dont, they try to push tons of bullshit down my throat. Also, when they tell me there is something wrong, it's always something that I can't check if actually is true. They never tell me that I have cavities or that i have a buildup of plaque. They always tell me something like "there is a possibility that the wall of your tooth x is at a risk of developing y bullshit, have you been taking your product z?". Al's, if I tell them how I've started taking product y at the next check, they don't ever mention the bullshit "disease/spook" they mentioned last time, despite my not having changed anything.

>>41047077
Sorry for the length and the errors. I'm at my phone and I'm a slow typer.

Having straight white teeth adds 2 points to your face.

>>41042375
i get you bro. last thing you want your dentist to see is your integrals.

americans are obsessed with teeth, anyone else noticed this throughout their life?

>>41047077
I think it might just be down to genetics or something, my dad smokes pretty heavily and i used to rarely see him brush his teeth when i lived at home yet the dentist would always say his were perfectly healthy when we went for check up's.

Yet my mum who has the same diet as my dad as my mum dose all the cooking regularly has to get something done, she brushes her teeth twice a day and doesn't smoke.

>>41046989

However, once I got to my 30s suddenly I started getting cavities. Cavities in the side walls of my teeth. It started with my wisdom teeth, but no big deal, got them taken out anyway. But now it's happend to the my two back teeth at the top, and one of the bottom back teeth is starting to feel funny.

im 22 and broke as fuck but i have an interview tomorrow. im honestly considering paying for a bottom set of braces because its just two teeth on the bottom set. its the lateral incisor and the cental incisor that are bent and it has felt like a while now this my making my mouth position kinda uncomfortable when i bite down or relax my mouth.

im just wondering if i can even get braces again.. i got them free the first time on NHS (thank you england) but now id have to drop a few thousand on it im assuming. However my sister recently went to colombia and got braces for DIRT CHEAP over there, now she just goes to get them tigthened etc. might have to go to colombia brahhh

>>41047335
Definitely a lot more confident. There were times during it when I doubted if it was worth all the money, embarrassment and pain but I'm definitely glad I did it and encourage anyone with similar problem to get it fixed as soon as they can afford it

I had bad sugar rot from neglecting my teeth and never seeing a dentist as a kid.

After years of not brushing, eventually the white part of the tooth started falling off, leaving me with black cavities all over my front teeth.

I've had 5 fillings, and am set to get at least 2 crowns, if not 4 depending on my progress.

With my work insurance, I've only had to pay a total of 300-ish bucks for the fillings and cleanings I've had over the last 6 months and I can actually smile and talk to people without keeping my head down.

Not really. All carbohydrates break down to simple sugars.

You can get a cleaning kit (like $2) and use the pick to just scrape that shit off your teeth before it hardens into calculus. A water pick is also like 50 bucks.

Your cavities will actually fill in a little if you eat only animal products for a while. They won't heal completely, but the outer dentin layer solidifies because you are A. No longer damaging them with sugar and B. eating foods that are high in protein, phosphorous, calcium and vitamin D. All of these are needed to keep teeth strong.

Really you shouldn't be eating any refined carbohydrates or bread, or sugar, and all of your carb intake should be from vegetables. That is a minimal way to ensure that you never get a single cavity (Along with routine cleanings to remove that gunk before it hardens and destroys your teeth)

Jesus christ why are your teeth all so bad?

If you didn't learn to brush regularly as a kid your parents weren't strict enough with you. I see it more of a discipline matter than a hygiene matter. If I miss one night I feel a lot of guilt.

I had a huge overbite as a kid and had to wear one of those around-the-neck retractors, then braces for 2 years, then permanent retainers but luckily I was finished with all of them before I even went to highschool.

I think I got my teeth genetics from my dad since he, my brother and I have never had cavities. Flossing is a pain in the ass with a permanent retainer so I just use a dental pick as necessary when plaque starts to build up. It's disgusting to let it get to OP's point and only takes a few minutes to clean.

I brush twice a day. Never had any problems until I started using an electric toothbrush. I had a dentist clear off the tartar (calculus) and from then on, on top of my normal routine I used mouthwash daily and flossed almost daily. What happened? The tartar came back.

Where am I going wrong anons? I thought electric toothbrushes weren't memes.

False. Had it twice from a shitty diet high in carbs- Fixed it twice with a scraper/pick for £4 on ebay and a water pik for £30 on amazon

It's literally just dead plaque and matter

Protip: If you have calculus you've had shitty teeth hygeine and shitty diet for a while. You need to fix your diet first. I've never had healthier teeth than when on a keto diet (which I've since kicked because it's shit for other reasons, but the point is eat less refined carbs for better teeth, end of)

>>41042375

>lose 3 teeth lower left and one lower right when 14 years old because of some infection
My mother never took me to the hospital or a dentist, only took me 2 weeks too late when it my whole face was swollen like 100 bees had stung me. They had to remove the teeth and now i can't eat on my left side, being a poorfag doesn't help either.
I'm now 21 and i wish my mother had done something earlier, she thought it would get better by itself. Atleast you guys have teeth that can be fixed.

Get veneers or go home.

But you are a poorfag with shit teeth so who cares.
