I have very bad teeth and it is because I spent years neglecting my oral health and I haven’t been to the dentist in nearly 7 years. I am scared to see the dentist because I’m afraid of what they may say to me. I will likely be wearing full dentures. I will be 32 and I am curious if anyone else is facing this problem? I just want to feel like I’m not alone… That someone else has maybe even overcame a major problem like this. I feel like a total failure for letting my teeth get so bad, I haven’t been able to truly smile in years because I’m ashamed of my teeth, and I used to be a person who very much loved to smile and laugh.
