I'm curious...
I'm 23. never had a cavity, brush two to three times per day, remember to floss more often than not.
How long is too long between dentist visits? It has been about two years, just received dental insurance so I'm planning on making an appointment before the end of the year... Still, I'm curious if I'm doing myself a disservice by not seeing a dentist every 6 months.
The other question: Who do I see regarding difficulties with my jaw? For the past 6 years, it has popped out of joint regularly (basically every time i open my mouth wide it pops), and can sometimes be painful. I have mentioned it to dentists and orthodontists in the past, but they have dismissed it as nothing. I would like to have it investigated and dealt with appropriately.
