We get one dentist to do the uppers and the other to fix the lower teeth.

The other dentist on standby.

Jesus, that sounds.... horrible.

Not at all intending to be rude or judgmental, but does she smoke? Or do drugs? I don't know how it could be so rough. I don't envy her situation at all.

never smoked, done some edibles and rarely drinks. always brushed her teeth from what i can remember when growing up. she has just for some reason always had problems with her teeth. i remember about 10 years ago she went for a check up at the dentist and the dentist told her “you have the teeth of a 90 year old.”

Does she grind her teeth in her sleep? That would cause big problems down the road as she wears the enamel down.

I have super crowded teeth as well. Have to floss every day or develop issues. If I went a year without flossing, I'd be getting teeth pulled.

no clue if she grinds her teeth but would that result in having 28 teeth replaced? she said it’s about a 6 hour surgery and she is just wanting to get it done because the pain is becoming unbearable.

not everyone can come up with $20,000 out of pocket since insurance won’t pay. but hey, if being a dick makes you feel better, go for it!

I was in a similar situation about 9 years ago. I went to DDS in Liberty MO, they offered a credit card through Synchrony at the time. It was done in 1 day (although recovery took longer) and after some adjustments early on I haven't had any trouble, it is so nice to have nice teeth.
