Hi all,
Throughout my 20s I severely neglected my dental health. Now in my 40s I massively regret it and suffer from severe periodontitis. I gave up smoking 6 months ago.
I've had one molar extracted and suffer from gum abcesses roughly every 3-4 months. Who knew gum disease is this painful!
I'm at my whits end, I'm tempted to have all my teeth extracted qnd use dentures to avoid this continual mouth throbbing. I have an NHS dentist but aware they will do the minimum being NHS.
I'm really looking for advice. What would people do in my situation? Really appreciate hearing from people in similar circumstances.
