A pioneering treatment expected to be on the market next year could offer a lifeline for people suffering from tooth decay.
Scientists at the University of Nottingham, in collaboration with researchers worldwide, have developed a new gel that can repair and regenerate damaged tooth enamel.
you don’t eat an elephant in one bite. I was in your position many years ago - and I can relate to the anxiety you are feeling. The shame, the fear, the pain - I get it. My suggestion is to take it appointment by appointment. But trust me - teeth are fucking important. There are many things that could go wrong. I had some weird formation above my front teeth, and if I did leave it at that, I would have lost my face. Yes, almost the entire upper jaw, sinuses and nose.
Well, I did that, I spent a lot of time in the dentist chair getting all fixed up, so fear and pain aren’t really a factor. Shame, sure, I neglected them again due to depression and whatever cocktail of mental health problems I have, they were kinda messed up from the start and I never got braces. I have a partial denture in front so I don’t think that particular thing could happen to me but that’s scary. I’ve been taking regular care of whats left so idk, when I get insurance again I’ll have to see.
