Receding gums, how much longer do I have?
I'm 23 year old female and the last time I went to a dentist it was at a free clinic so they could pull a rotten tooth. I have several cavities that need to be filled from over a year ago, and I hardly have any enamal on my teeth you can practically see through the top two. Also my gums are receding very badly on my front bottoms. I have been bulimic for almost 10 years, and I'm in recovery now but my teeth are in horrible shape. I haven't worked in years, or had insurance or money to go to a dentist. I am moving, and have a job lined up but not sure when insurance will kick in. In the mean time is there anything I can do to help my teeth and gums? I have extreme pain in my fronts to hot and cold, and my gums are so receded that you can see part of the root and I'm afraid my teeth are just going to fall out.
