it was just a check-up with xrays and stuff. i have 12 cavities. i brush my teeth twice a day and floss once in a while. what the frick? i swear when i was little i would eat candy all day and not brush and get like 2 cavities. also my wisdom teeth are growing in sideways and will screw up my bottom teeth if i dont get them removed soon. 🙁
 
i was totally different, got tons of cavities when i was a kid,

now i can drink karo syrup all day and not get any cavities. I always brush at night, as for morning, only when i have time. use listerine instead if i'm running late (spit out while driving).

rarely floss.

edit: do you drink a lot of tea?
 
some people are more genetically inclined to have cavities.

i consume a lot of sugar, and don't do a stellar job with dental hygene (yes i do brush daily)...I have never had a cavity.
 
my mouth looks fine. i dont have bad breath. i saw a dentist last year when i got them filled last time. btw alot of them are really small ones on the surface that can get filled without novacane.

i use karo syrup as mouth wash.
 
I've been using a sonicare and flossing 1-2 times a day. I focus more on the sides and less on the surfaces than I did with a regular brush and last checkup I had 0 cavities compared to the usual 1-3 for the previous few visits. Go figure. I also have been using Colgate instead of Crest. My teeth feel much cleaner (smooth and glossy feeling) when using Colgate compared to Crest.
 
i have soft teeth 🙁 i brush 2x day and floss nearly everynight... still have problems

one time in HS I had 13 cavities. last time i went to the dentist I didnt have any, but i did have a filling that was falling out so he had to redrill it and do it all over anyways

whenever the dentist sees you enter the office, $$$$ signs dance through his head.

Have you tried wearing one of those flouride mouth things at night? I heard that's supposed to really strengthen the enamel.
