I've suffered with horrible teeth my whole life. Very soft and sensitive. Rot no matter how much I brush, floss, and rinse. Going to the dentist has always been traumatic because I have memories of multiple strangers holding me down while someone worked in my mouth and or pulled a tooth. Even today the very act of sitting in a dentists chair makes me cry. I care for my teeth daily but continue to visit the dentist for extractions. I'm down to about 14 teeth. Very sad. My mother told me when I was young she had her top dentures when she was 25 so she instilled good oral hygiene habits in me.. but it doesn't seem to matter what I do cause they keep rotting. Ugh. I even use the sensitive toothpaste by Tom's of Maine. It works great I must say!! To bad I wasn't blessed with good teeth tho..
