just out of curiosity, is there anyone who has never had a cavity or a filling, or know of someone who hasn't? I only know of one person, a girl I used to work with, who commented one day how she 'likes' getting her teeth cleaned, and I just kinda looked at her like she was nuts and asked, And you probably love fillings, too, right? and she said she'd never had one, never had a cavity. Amazing. Here I am doing everything imaginable trying to keep my teeth in tip top shape - brush and floss twice a day, NO exceptions, NO going to bed without doing it - don't eat alot of sweets, don't smoke, don't drink pop, etc etc, and there's been times I've gone in for a cleaning only to be told I have 4 cavities. 4. F-O-U-R. I have looked at my dentist and said, 'Where on earth could I possibly have 4 cavities, they're all filled as it is....' but I do. And then you have people like my friend who doesn't even floss half the time and she not only looks like a walking ad for perfect teeth, she's never had a cavity. Unbelievable. I can't help but be envious that she does half the pampering of her teeth that I do and I'm the one with the problems. So I was just curious if anyone else out there has never had one, either.
