The years of depression have caught up to me. The treatment they’re going with is deep cleanings every 3 months to reattach the gums. I think at least because I kinda faded out when she told me I had periodontitis. I hadn’t been to the dentist in 10 years due to anxiety and depression. I’m only 26.
I’m seeing that there’s a lot of bad outlook for getting diagnosed with moderate periodontitis. I saw someone say the outlook is dentures by 40. Heart disease, etc. I’m worried that the deep cleanings won’t be able to maintain my teeth. I also have bad recession on one of my bottom teeth. I’m crying a lot right now. I feel disgusting. I’m really disappointed in myself.
