What's up with the tatic of "you're going to lose all your teeth"?My aunt lived to be 94 w/o having a cleaning

My aunt had all her teeth when she died!


In 1997 I had deep cleaning by a dentist. He was very rude to me while I was undergoing the procedure by telling me I could lose all my teeth since I hadn%26#039;t been taking good care of them (his opinion). I told him I did take care of them. When I am treated rudely by a person in the medical profession, I always change doctors. Once I started going to a different dentist, I never was told to have another deep cleaning again! It%26#039;s 2008 and I haven%26#039;t had one since that last awful experience. I have to wonder if that first dentist made his patients do it so he could go on a cruise. I am in the midst of changing dentists, after 4 yrs. with the same one due to the hygenist. She saw I had roots exposed but Zipped across them as I was crying and begging her to stop. This gal was downright rude. This office uses the tatic of %26quot;you%26#039;re going to lose all your teeth if you don%26#039;t come in every 3 mos. for a cleaning%26quot;. How many of you believe this is true?

you need to get them cleaned every 6 months and as long as you brush twice a day and floss you should be fine as well as getting them checked on for cavities, i think you just have bad luck with dentists!
Reply:i dont really care much for the dentist..i have perfect teeth..white and all but i dont go every 6months for cleaning. so its not true
Reply:I%26#039;m pretty sure it%26#039;s a good idea to brush every day. Don%26#039;t know about the dental teeth cleaning bit. I think maybe they just want the money. I haven%26#039;t been to a dentist in about twenty five years .





I recommend Colgate Cavity Protection.
