Brad... never a cavity in your whole life? Whatever!

My son's never had one either - sealants are wonderful things

I was born with ridges in my teeth which meant I ended up getting cavities in my molars before they even completely came in. Besides that, I also had to get most of my baby teeth pulled because my permanent teeth came up no where near the baby teeth. AND I had to have surgery (which the kid also had to have) to get my upper "eye" teeth down - they were happy staying where they were up in my gums. Then 4 years of braces. Thankfully my Dad worked for IBM back when they had surgery which covered EVERYTHING, ,lol!

Now that I no longer have IBM insurance, I've had to pay for replacing all the old fillings, a crown where one tooth had ridges that were TOO severe to fill, and wisdom teeth surgery.

Right now, I need braces again, but I'm too much of wimp to deal with it after already having them for 4 years. :P
