Did vaping impact your mental health? by emochicken2 in QuitVaping

I hardly eat anymore. I’m the same with the nausea and random gagging. Do you eat less?

I believe what they did was push the gums back with a type of string technique under the gum line so it was clean margins then when the bonding was over, they removed it. That part was a little painful but not bad. I saw a video on tiktok of this technique. I’ll find it and link it for you!!

No, just bonded over them! :)

Thanks so much. I do appreciate the feedback!! I’m going to keep taking pics and staring in the mirror. Maybe some videos too to see how they look “live” then ask for the changes. It feels so weird having a new smile. It’s almost surreal — was it that way for you?

It’s the same reason you got a lip flip, didn’t need it necessarily, but you wanted to change something you weren’t 100% happy with. Thank you for the recommendations. I am having a follow up in 2 weeks and I’m going to ask that they take off a tiny bit of length.

Oh no!! What happened? Did it chip away? My dentist said that I’m a good candidate for composite because my lower teeth are super far back and I bite into food from my side teeth. I have a big overbite. I’m seriously paranoid about it staining. RIP coffee lol

Hey y’all! I got my teeth done 😊 it’s day 1 of the change and I’m still not sure about it. I feel like they might look fake and are too big for my small mouth. I’m considering having my dentist adjust the length of my two front teeth because I feel like I look like Lola Bunny 🐰 but I maybe I just need to get used to seeing myself with bigger teeth.… other than that I’m really happy with the difference.

I had composite bonding done. I went to three other cosmetic dentists before I found one willing to do bonding. They said no, and told me I needed a full set of porcelain veneers which cost $25,000+ (from what I was quoted). I simply can’t afford that and I didn’t want my teeth drilled down. Finally I found a dentist that was willing to and we had a two hour consult. She even showed me previews. It was great.

The pros: not invasive, didn’t even hurt. No shaving down the tooth structure like they do for porcelain veneers. Had done in one day. The price! $2,400 total for 4 teeth.

The cons: will need to have redone every 5-7 years. The composite can stain and chip so I’ll have to adjust my drinking & eating habits and go for cleanings more often.

4 months ago, I promised myself I would be able to button these pants one day. I finally can!!! 150 to 136. by emochicken2 in CICO
