Woohoo, 4 cavities filled today

Got 4 out of the way today, with at least 7 or 8 more to go. Gonna have to make a few appointments. I love the dentist!
 
Well, I hate brushing. Plus I went about 16 months without a dental checkup, which was unavoidable. Plus I always have an altoid in my mouth, which doesn't help.

You should at least use listerine everyday (2x a day) if you dont brush your teeth.

good gawd, if you don't brush the listerine can't save you.

Currently I brush twice a day, and use listerine once a day. These are all old cavaties.
<scarymusic>floss or else you'll have some new cavities.</scarymusic>
Twilight Zone music would work 😛

Either that or music from Friday the 13th OR Halloween works. 😉

How long did you go without brushing? 12 months or so?

No, I brushed.. just maybe once a day for 12 months, with no checkups/cleanings.

I dont floss, and never will. I never have.

Actually, Phosflur works great. I use that instead of Listerine.

well, you won't floss and you are a sporadic brusher at best.
have fun going to the dentist for fillings from here on out, and then there's gum disease...
a little bleeding here and there, and then in your 40's bone loss will become more apparent. into your 50's you'll be visiting the dentist to have teeth pulled due to periodontal abcesses and other complications of periodontal disease.

mark my words.

I did that in college to be honest with you. Had a few cavities to fill after a couple years. After that, I started taking much better care of my teeth. Brush 2 times and day with my soniccare and Phosflur mouth rinse every night. No problems since. You might want to look into Phosflur. It works great at protecting the pearly whites.

I know! My wife uses the bubble gum. I use the gushing grape. It doesn't have a nasty aftertaste like the cheap ACT mouthwash I was using.
