I think my dentist is trina rip me off. seriously. When ya think about it...these ppl. make their living off of drilling and filling.. I think this Asian lady is out to rip me off!
All thru my teens and early twenties I never had a cavity and brushed once a day and flossed MAYBE twice a month (I know some gnarly shit goin on in there, esp, when I finally did floss, the smell was bad enough to make ya gag!) My diet was terrible, I ate everything, but never did I get a cavity.
Anyway, now that im in my early 30's, over the past 4-5 years I've been flossing once a day (evenings) and brushing twice as well as using a water pik (that thing gets EVERYTHING out). I also tried a no fluoride toothpaste, been keeping my teeth very clean, but I am suspicious now that I have cavities. I also do coconut oil pulling in the morning. Really keeps my teech very smooth, and has improved my gum health too
My diet has also improved, no pop, VERY little refined sugars, no caffien (sp?), and no smoking. Im a pretty healthy dude, not hard on the eyes either
I eat many green veggies, drink lotsa water...dunno what it could be.
I was going to ask blunt if he could help me out and check out my teeth, but the last time I went to him, I awoke in the dentist chair with my pants unzipped and a funny taste in my mouth that wasn't fluoride
second opinion? or just go back to fluoride?
