Today, I learnt that my tooth is cracking due to a crown that was put in this past October to prevent the previous crown from doing that. Cheers to an implant at 25 years old. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, after waking up from a bad migraine which caused my teeth to clench, I found out that I broke a molar. A dentist told me it split down to the bone, so I need root canal and an extended crown. Then they told me the tooth below had also broke and has to be pulled. FML
Today, after finally working there long enough for medical and dental insurance to kick in, my employers decided we should part ways. Then, while I was eating dinner, my crown popped off. FML
Today, after having to get the front filling on my tooth fixed five times, the dentist finally decided to give me a crown. While waiting for the permanent to be made, I had a temporary one put in. This one fell out five times. The final time, I actually sneezed it out. FML
Today, after having toothaches for about two years, which persisted even after I had the crack in my tooth repaired, I went to a different dentist and it turns out that the actual culprit is a hole in the neighboring tooth, which has had years to grow, unnoticed under the edge of my gums. FML
Today, I went to a new dentist because I've been experiencing occasional toothache. Upon seeing my x-rays, he noticed something odd. Apparently, during a root canal a while ago, a piece of an instrument broke off, and has been lodged within ever since. FML
Today, I faced my fear of needles and had my wisdom teeth extracted while awake. On the last tooth, I heard a loud crack. The root broke off in my jawbone and had to be drilled out. FML
Today, I was eating ice cream and struggling to chew a particularly hard chunk of chocolate. After finally breaking it into pieces, I spat it out because it tasted terrible. Then I discovered that I was missing my temporary crown. Now I have no upper molar. FML
Today, I asked my dentist to have a look at the tiny crack his colleague repaired a few years ago, because it’s giving me trouble again. He looked in my mouth, took an X-ray, and could find neither the crack, nor the corresponding filling. FML
Today, I was told I need two root canals. This is because my previous dentist did such a bad job on one of my teeth that the decay went through and transferred to its neighbor. FML
Today, I went for a checkup after having recently been fitted with dental implants. The oral surgeon I chose was supposedly the best in the area, but it turns out that he inserted the implants at the wrong angle. Now I have to have further surgery to correct it. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

If it makes you feel any better one day my teeth just started falling out. No drugs, no bad oral hygiene, no being mean to my mouth whatsoever, just one day, chunks of teeth just start falling out. Turns out a lifetime of iron medication and regular use of inhalers will do that. I'm 32, and basically have no teeth.

Shit, I have cavities in almost all my teeth for no reason, missing 6 teeth and might be on the way to others if it keeps up. I also have no reason, I take care of my teeth and everything... Genetics suck. especially when you're 19 and have a ****** up mouth, wooo! In the long run it's better to just get ******* dentures

Well at least you have the cash for an implant. Most insurances won't cover that and just one can run several thousand dollars.

Youre lucky you aren't like me and just have bad genetics with weak enamel and have teeth that get cavities and break with fillings even though you take really good care of your teeth. My brother had to get dentures at 21 because of it and so did my aunt.

If it helps at least you're getting an implant. I had one pulled and I couldn't afford an implant. Have a empty spot in my mouth for years now.

All these people "no reason I have bad teeth" you'd be surprised the havoc one can of soda can reap on a tooth and people drink the stuff like air. But we are so desensitized to it, it's not even considered a culprit, or if it is, somehow defended or justified. Change your diet, change your life.

So, I'm 27 (female) and my entire top row of teeth is fake. Most people can't tell unless they knew me previously and strangers often compliment me on my "perfect smile". Not saying you should WANT dentures or implants, but it could actually help your confidence. My case is unique because I originally had bucked front teeth, therefore, people who knew me could obviously tell. I couldn't afford implants, so I went to a dentist with payment plans to get dentures.
