    ive managed to grind my wisdom teeth down to the gums while i sleep due to stress. i got myself a mouth guard which i never wear. I haven't seen a dentist in almost ten years with my upper two wisdom teeth so ground down its almost like they are gone. I had gut wrenching pain maybe 3 years ago, i drenched those days in alcohol and oral gel...i assume both teeth have died since then.

    due to the lack of insurance and dentist visits i gave up almost all sugar and brush at least three times a day + mouthwash. I wouldn't doubt I have an auto-immune disease myself..havent lost a full tooth yet just the halves of both upper wisdom teeth.

    i wonder how much its going to cost me to take care of

    • dude. i strongly suggest you get that looked at. go get an xray. this shit was the #2 killer back in the day. tooth decay is no joke. it can and will kill you..rabbit
    • or at the very least attack your immune system so you have a sort of sepsis 24/7. not good man. can go to brain and it does cause heart problems also.rabbit
    • exactly what i had, half top wisdom tooth. does it smell if you stick your finger back there? if so get it out asap.rabbit
    • don't panic, you can't die from a rotten tooth. but you should go to the dentist anyway. can't avoid it forever.uan
    • and you are not the only one with that kind of problem, dentists know how hard it is for some ppl to make an appointment because of fear (price and pain).uan
    • get a consultation at least. I recently went for the first time in 15+years. The fillings I had fell out 10 years ago. I was convinced thatFax_Benson
    • I was entering a world of pain but turns out most of the hideous conditions I must have were merely psychological.Fax_Benson
    • You kind of can die from a rotten tooth, but it has to be severely abscessed. You'd care for it b4 it gets to that point.bklyndroobeki
    • Yea, thats how bad that shit is for you though hey far out. Just go get a checkup everyone.rabbit
