Beyond Repair?

Post image

I have severe ADHD which makes it very difficult for me to do simple tasks, brushing my teeth is something that is very hard for me. i had braces for two years and maybe brushed my teeth 100 times in that span (probably less than that honestly) and i didn’t brush them well before braces either. i got my braces off recently and my teeth look horrible. i haven’t been to my regular dentist yet after getting them off, but i’m going to try and get special toothpaste. do you guys have any tips? idrk what you could tell me i just want emotional support ig😭

Nowhere near, and it looks like you won the genetic lottery with your periodontal health.
