So, something weird is happening with my front teeth. For the last few months, I was only brushing at night using Nature's Bounty toothpaste, but lately, I’ve switched things up—using the Kennedy family protect formula with magnesium and fluoride, plus some Vadamecum mouthwash. Last year, I went to see my dentist because my incisor was hurting, but she just told me it was gum inflammation and that I needed to keep things clean. I've actually been avoiding using my front teeth altogether out of pure anxiety. Now, I'm experiencing this sensation where my jaw feels completely limp both in the morning and at night... it's almost like I have no sensation there. Even if I try to bite down with my other teeth, the feeling fades after a few minutes. This has been going on for about three months now. To make matters worse, cavities are starting to show up on my central and lateral incisors. I finally managed to snag an appointment with my dentist this Monday to get everything fixed once and for all. Does anyone have advice on what I should do in the meantime? Also, my father dealt with periodontitis, so I'm worried. What do you think my prognosis looks like?😢 Thanks for any input
