Hi, I'm almost 19 and I've never been to the dentist. My family never had health insurance and only recently got it. The only reason I've worked up the courage to go soon is because I chipped a molar that had decayed due to a cavity and I know it will only get worse if I don't address it.
My major concern is my four front bottom incisors, to two very front ones being the worst. I've had tartar buildup on them for a while, first noticing it when I was 9 or 10 and a chunk broke off. They have been wiggly as far as I can remember, I can wiggle them with my fingers and click them by pushing on them with my tongue. There is a (kinda blurry) picture of them in this post.
I know I probably have some terrible peridontitis that has been stewing in my mouth for years and some severe bone loss and I'll most likely need all 4, if not more, removed but I'm just scared to face reality. I'm a performer, I can't lose my teeth.
I'm scared shitless.
