Q. I have the most unsightly smile ever, i am 35 years old and have had this problem for a few years. I could not tell you when i was last able to smile as I really don’t remember. i have 9 missing teeth and 4 broken teeth, all the broken teeth are at the front of my mouth (my smile teeth) and it is so embarrassing. The worst thing is i have always brushed my teeth, i don’t eat sweets, i don’t drink fizzy drinks, yet my teeth look like this. I am far to afraid of dentists to even go there, this i have tried on many occasions but every time i get to the dentists chair i make my excuses and leave. I would love to be able to smile again, but i know that i would not be able to afford it in this lifetime, how could i ever be able to smile again??
