I don't even want to go into what a clusterf&*k my teeth are. I didn't get my first one till I was 15 months old, and kept my baby teeth so long that some of them had to be pulled (to keep them from just disintegrating, as baby teeth aren't supposed to hang around that long). I still have 2 permanent teeth in my gum that have never come through. When I have a couple thousand dollars I don't need (har) maybe I'll have the oral surgery to get them out and the braces afterwards. oh, and I have fillings in pretty much every molar. My consolation is that hopefully since they took so long to show up, I'll keep them. My dad has had false teeth ever since he was around my age.

The younger you are the more likely you are to not have cavities, simply because pretty much all toothpastes are fluoridated now and so is the water. We had to take fluoride tablets in elementary school - obviously they didn't do jack for me.
