Okay, I've never been afraid of the dentist. I used to go every year...like you are supposed to. Then I moved far from my dentist, got married and had kids. I figured that if it wasn't hurting then it was okay.
Then I chipped a tooth. I got that taken care of. That was when Gideon was a baby. The dentist told me that because of being pregnant and the vomiting that took place from the pregnancies, it took a toll on my back teeth.
Okay, I get that.
Fast forward two more babies and the pain came back with more chipping.
Thankfully I now have dental insurance to take care of my upcoming visits.
So, my helpful tip for Wednesday is:
DON'T WAIT UNTIL YOU HAVE A PROBLEM WITH YOUR TEETH TO GO TO THE DENTIST!
Even if you don't have insurance, it's worth the extra money once or twice a year to get your teeth cleaned. This was also recommended to me:
Get yourself one and use it and it will strengthen your gums to prevent issues with your teeth.
You're welcome...cause you will thank me later!
