please tell me how are your teeth????

[TwistedTanya]

I have heard that a lot of people with CF have teeth problems. I am a bit luckier on that end. I have had only 2 filings. However, my back upper molars are kind of irregular shaped and feel broken or pointy. I might need to get a cap on them. I had braces when I was a kid. I also spent most of my childhood years in FL where there is flouride in the water and believe that is why the enamel is still good.

I responded earlier, but left out a few things. I had numerous teeth pulled (baby & adult) due to deterioration/infection.

I have NEVER had root canal nor would I, personally, go through the expense & pain of it. IF my teeth were in good shape overall, maybe.

In addition to the CF (meds, nutrition or whatever factor of it), I also think that bad/good teeth are genetic. Both my parents had lousy teeth.

My Mom had full dentures at a young age & my Dad had a lower partiaal denture & not so great upper of his own.

My doctor doesnt have a chance in hell going by that alone YET we are right on top of things. She has had a few cavities filled over the years.

She has been doing great so far even with her braces on, but its from diligence (harping on my part) with brushing, using a flouride rinse & drinking florinated water.

In elementary school here they give free floride up until the end of 4th grade if you want it.

She doesnt have CF tho!
