[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 391115, member: 1514"] I had good teeth as a kid but needed braces. I took very good care of them until I became an adult and lost dental insurance and then my depression issues kicked in, medications kicked in, life kicked in...I got lazy. My teeth went to hell. Now I have awful teeth. I tried desperately to get the boys to keep their teeth up well. Cory worries about his and works hard to keep them nice. He is pretty much a clean freak unless he is just hanging out. He always wants to be dressed just right, hair just right, etc. Jamie is sloppy off work. He is embarrassed about his teeth because his front teeth have these brownish stains on them from floride in the water I made his bottles with. It was beach water and they put too much floride in it. Caused these light brown stains on the adult teeth. Add to the fact he has a slight overbite it makes it a bit pronounced. His boss actually said something to him about it not long ago! I thought that was crass unless they are willing to pay for veneers. He has tried whitening tooth paste and it doesnt work. [/QUOTE]
