Hi guys, I’ve got some severe gum recession to the point in which, my teeth are hanging on for dear life. It’s making me so anxious about being seen by a dentist. I know I’m going to need a lot of work done. Does anyone know what sort of work it might be and what it’s like please? Very nervous!

I have noticed my toddler has a couple of white bits on her front teeth. Any ideas what this might be? For reference, I am 99 percent sure there is no ways it’s overuse of fluride and she tends to be quite happy to have her teeth brushed. She also doesn’t get any sugar yet, but does eat fruit (not in I sane quantities or anything). Got an appointment with the dentist, but I am worried

I won’t lie, I had WONDERFUL teeth before kids besides the fact that they were crowded. After having 3 kids my teeth got a little worse but still fixable I only have 2 cavities. But they are pretty deep ones that may need root canals. Regardless, I had really bad post natal depression with my daughter and post partum after my daughter and son. I didn’t take very well care of my teeth during this time, I need a deep cleaning done which requires anesthesia. I’m terrified of shots in the mouth and just dental work in general. But I want to be healthy in the mouth again, has anyone here ever had a deep cleaning due to plaque build up? How bad is the procedure? Are there ways they can numb me without the shots themselves or will I have to do them? Can they give me gas for anxiety before or no? How much did your teeth hurt after the numbing wore off and for how long? I’ve since healed from my depression which is why I’m fixing my teeth TIA 🙏🏼❤️

Just wondering if any dental professionals can tell me if this is normal, or might get better. The dentist left me a mess and is of no help... still looking for a new dentist now.

Hi, I’ve just noticed this spot on my son’s tooth, it looks like it’s chipped away. Is this tooth decay? Will this ruin his adult teeth? I feel so bad and like the worst mum right now. He also has white lines running at the top of every tooth which the dentist said was fluorosis.
