i needed to hear this so much. i’ve got truly awful teeth (by no fault of my own) and it’s my biggest insecurity - i have to be careful even eating soft foods because they will just crumble. i’ve not been to the dentist since i was 12 and it’s a true full blown fear now. you’ve inspired me to sign up to a couple of local dentists to hopefully get my journey started. thank you mel 🤍

This is so so important, I’m a social media manager for dental practices and know a few clinicians at Kiss. You were in great hands and they did an amazing job! 😍

I sympathise so much with you, I am absolutely terrified of the dentist and was extremely hesitant to go see them! I am only 19 however cannot afford the £2000 the dentist want to help with my dental health and the pain that comes with dental issues! But I am so happy young built up the courage to get help💛

I’m a dental hygiene therapist and patients like you break my heart. No judgement and it wasn’t your fault, never too late to start taking care of your oral health ❤️
I think stuff like this needs to be spoken about more! I’m basically living through the same situation, parents not teaching the importance of dental hygiene. I didn’t go to a dentist properly until I was about 16 and even then I had to be sedated to even get in the chair. Virtually all of my front teeth have had to have root canals due to decay as a child/teen and I’ve had to have 2 extracted

Mel, every time you post a story time it shocks me how alike our stories are and it’s so sad but also makes me a little relieved that I wasn’t the only one
