Cavities I'm quite familiar with these. I've been battling cavities all my life. I was born with weak teeth. My teeth were yellow when they first came in. The enamel is very thin to non-existant. Years ago, 1995, I went to a dentist in Toledo, OH who told me the only possible cause of my dental problems was my Mom taking DES prenatally. I found that interesting as she has mentioned DES many times, sometimes that she took it, sometimes that her frien did. It was a drug prescribed for morning sickness in the 1960's. The results of DES prenantally? Yellow teeth Thin, fragile enamel Endometriosis 'Lucky' me, I have all of the above! And, the dentist told me, the only way to protect my poor fragile teeth is to brush six (6) times a day with a soft bristle tooth brush! And so, life got crazy and I allowed others to dictate when I was 'allowed' to brush~ I am reaping the rewards of this. Nothing a good dentist and a Lot of money can't fix!!! |
