| Re: dental issues
If you are only missing half of the teeth and not the entire teeth you may want to consider crowns or overlays since at least the root of the teeth remain intact - this is generally cheaper than doing implants. However you may want to consult with a specialist first like an oral surgeon or periodontist to make sure that this is nothing more serious than brittle teeth.
Enamel errosion can occur for a number of reasons - over brushing with a hard tooth brush or harsh abrasive toothpastes or ever using teeth bleaching agents, dietary or nutrional factors (too much sugar, not enough calcium and vit D, etc.) or medical issues (acid reflux or excessive stomach acids, affects of prescription meds used to treat other medical conditions, etc.) - even genetics/ hereditary and environmental factors can have an affect.
In any event - even though you brush often and use mouthwash it might be in your best interests to go for professional cleaning more frequently - like 3-4 times a year - this will help prevent tartar and plaque in places you don't see from building up and affecting the enamel and strength of the teeth.
Depending on your credit standing - there are some credit cos that offer 12 month zero percent or low cost financing options for medical and dental treatment such as Capital One - most dental offices have applications in their waiting rooms or offices and although harder to find - some dentists will allow you to pay a fixed amt over an agreed amt of time as well, so it doesn't hurt to ask about it.
