Sign me up! by Oscar cotton http://pokedandprodded.health.com/2008/06/18/free-dental-makeover/#comment-4529 Oscar cotton Tue, 17 Nov 2009 15:05:26 +0000 http://healthpoked.wordpress.com/?p=356#comment-4529 Please help me, due to our family genepool,we have really bad teeth,no matter how much we brush and floss,our teeth just don't get better in fact they get worse as we grow older. When I entered the military when I was 18 they started to try and get my teeth to where they were I could at least smile without being embaressed. That was ok for awhile,but then it all started to fall apart because the family gene took over and continued on it's destructive path. I'm 49 years old now and I have missing teeth, holes in my remaining teeth when I smile you can see from one side of my mouth to the other as if you were looking through the back door to the front door of someone's house. I can't digest my food properly because I can't chew my food properly. My gums are sore all of the time. But the most devestating thing is my selfe esteem is so low that I don't laugh or smile a lot,and when I do I have to cover my mouth or lower my head. It's frustrating to not be able to talk to people when you know that the first thing they see is my ugly teeth. I went to a job interview after applying for a customer service job, i thought everything went well with the interview...they never called me back, I found out later it was because of my smile, they didn't want a person with ugly teeth greeting customers(can't blame them). I used to attempt to date but after awhile I just gave up because even though I'm a good looking guy as soon as I open my mouth the date was pretty much over. I have a wonderful girlfriend now that doesn't care about my teeth but I want to get my teeth fixed so that she will not be ashamed of me when we go out in public. I have thought about trying to get my teeth fixed but it's just too expensive, I'm a layed off boatbuilder and I just can't afford to pay the dental costs(not that I could when I was working). I was saving up money to get my teeth fixed, but being without a job for over a year it's all gone now as was the hope of getting a better life. Please help me get my life back. Yes I want a beautiful smile but the main reason is that I want to be able to eat my food correctly and be able to digest my food so that I can be in the best health possible. Please help me.
