What work have you had done on your teeth ever?

Fillings, crowns(4), bridge, wisdom teeth removal
 
few fillings as a kid, including a baby root. 2 fillings, a few scale and polishes so far.

Still to go... root canal, crown and mouth guard fitting.
 
I did not have any fillings when I was a child, I used a manual toothbrush when I was a child.

I dread going to the dentist each time, but know any problems with my fillings, teeth sooner fixed the better,
 
treatment for dental abcesses, in 2015 and 2016, but needed a re-done root canal, and whatever fillings as well what I forgot about during age 18 to 33, one tooth taken out in 2006 as I could not afford it as I saw an emergecy dentist at the pratice I attend who were not my reguarly one wanted £500 to fix the problem with a root canal,
 
I got pretty bad toothache and had 4 fillings when I was 11 years old in my first molars, they told me the cavities were really deep and I was lucky I didn't need root canals - that scared me into taking much better care of my teeth (for a while, at least).

When I was 13 I had 3 of those teeth extracted for braces (they figured they may as well remove the already damaged teeth).

Left home at 18 and went to university - ate rubbish and didn't take proper care of my teeth. Didn't register with a dentist.

Got toothache at 24 and had to go to a dentist - another massive filling, narrowly avoiding a root canal, and another 3 fillings to join it.

Avoided the dentist for another 6 years or so, one of the heavily filled teeth broke, forcing me to go to a dentist. Fixed with another filling. Surprisingly, no new cavities.

Now 35, just had another tooth break and refilled, and a new filling. So now I have 6 pretty deep fillings, and have narrowly missed several root canals. :redface:
 
Just a random thing, post what work you ha e had done on your teeth and about how old u were when u had it done:)
I had the last 15 teeth pulled in 2015 and had immediate dentures put in. I was 64
