Here's my girl who brushes her teeth faithfully, doesn't like candy, eats well and has a mouthful of tooth trouble. She has about 12 fillings, 2 crowns, and just had her 2nd tooth pulled this morning (along with a fitting for a 2nd retainer - one on top and one on bottom). When one of her permanent teeth make the slightest bit of movement up, her baby teeth respond by dissolving their roots, which causes a pocket between her teeth that gets infected. The dentist is certain that she is going to have normal, healthy adult teeth because of good care, nutrition & hygiene but these baby ones are R-O-U-G-H!

Ouch. Poor girl! Love the grin, however!
Poor Analise! She is SO brave and hard-working! Dissolving roots - what's next?
I hope those fillings aren't mercury ones. She could have a bio-compatiblity problem. https://mercuryfreedentists.com/books.htm
Take care ya'll
I'm not looking forward to that. I've never had a cavity nor braces and have consequently never had to deal with the dentist much. That's about to change, I have a feeling.
