My teeth are decaying at the tops of my
gums and have been for a couple years and
I have no money at all to fix them any
suggestions??
This is a real problem for me it affects
the way I talk and I can't even smile
anymore because it is so embarrasing.
What causes this?

If you have decay its from not brushing
very well in that area. You need to have
them filled to have the problem fixed. If
you dont have them filled they will become
bigger. The larger the cavity the larger
change of root canal. Also if you use
drugs, it is common that it will cause
dcay along the gum line. Youll end up
with black spots along the gum line.

Adult decay more prevelant on the front
teeth is often the result of pouring
carbonated soda drinks over them on a
daily basis? If your drinking pop every
day the acids inherant to those type of
drinks is known in the dental community as
one of the single most destructive dietary
things you can do to the teeth! Even if
it is diet it is not safe!
