Two days ago I celebrated seven years clear with a beer closely followed by .............losing a tooth, despite my manic dental hygiene.
A TIP
If you have crowns on any teeth have your dentist X-ray them periodically. I lost a front tooth because it silently and painlessly, deprived of normal saliva cleaning, decayed behind the crown then just equally silently and painlessly broke off at the gum line.
I have moved so don't have the almost instant access to my hospital I used to enjoy but remedial action hopefully starts tomorrow. Why does everything happen on a Friday night????????
