Im 32 and ive got 7 fillings on my teeth and crown with a root treated tooth am i dentally normal

Q. Hello, i’d just like to know if i’m dentally ‘normal’?! i’m 32 years old, female, and work as a government researcher. i’ve got 7 fillings on my teeth (a couple very large) and a crown with a root treated tooth. is this normal for my age? i realise that everyone’s different, but, in terms of the cases you see everyday, does my dental work fit my age or have i had lots done? many thanks.

Search on Adult Dental Health surveys ( UK ) for the super detail. You are dentally around DMF(T) 8 ( Decay, Missing or Filled  Teeth) assuming you havent had adult teeth extracted (excluding wisdom teeth) You may be unusual in wanting to know.
