a rant.....so bear with me.

my teeth are in tremendously bad shape.
the blood disorder i have....plus being seriously depressed and not taking care of myself.
three pregnancies that stripped my body of vital nutrients WHILE i was severely depressed and not taking care of myself.
being with a person who controlled all the money...and wouldn't let me see a dentist.

my teeth started falling apart the first year we were together.
they look alright ...i haven't lost any that show.....
but my molars are crumbling. i can't chew properly.
and they hurt.
i have six totally broken teeth.
and now...i've seen a dentist....and to take care of it they will have to do oral surgery.
to take care of all of them and replace the ones i've lost will be like 10,000 dollars.

right now i'm in a lot of pain.
no dental insurance.
i'm not really sure what to do.
but...anyway.
like i said, a rant.
just a rant.....nothing anyone can really do.

it really makes no sense that dental insurance is so expensive and rarely provided along with medical insurance.
it's also not covered by the state for low income people.
to me this makes NO sense.
it causes a lot of health problems in itself.....can be deadly and is easily preventable.
if i'd had the first few teeth taken care of the others wouldn't have gotten so bad.
if the first few teeth had been taken care of the depression would likely have been less.....chronic pain adds a LOT to depression.
anyway.
just irritable.

    Ugh! That is one of the worst pains! I wonder if you went through an oral surgeon if they would put it through your medical? Did you ask? Also how about a local agency who may have some dentists nearby with good intentions to help people without insurance? good luck!! Mamie

    thanks mamie....i'm just starting out on this journey to fix my teeth.....
