No I have not heard of it, but I want some now! I always go to World market so I can buy that Black kitty licorice that I used to get at the co-op as a kid. It was very strong and salty came in a green bag from Germany I believe. I have a tin of it around here, but I don't have the label because when I ate all of the crystalized ginger, I put my licorice in. Damn. Anyhow, before I prattle on, I love licorice.

Grinding too Hard
by Sparkplug inso at night i grind too hard.
i have busted all the surfaces off my teeth and now my crown and my other teeth have fractured and several are worn very thin and most have cracks that if i don't fix, they are going to be exposing a nerve soon.
i have a night guard and i am now going to pay more attention to it, but seeing my insurance does not really pay much of any of the recunstruction due to the grinding of my teeth.

Baylor, I think they will help with the crown replacement. I am not sure if it is less than the insurance I have to replace it. They might be able to put in a post which is implanted in my gums compared to the post being attached to the tooth as it is now. I think it was a work around for insurance to tell you the truth. But it did not last up to the grinding. I know my insurance does NOT pay for a post implant. I also think it pays for tooth colored fillings only up to a point. If the fillings are too far back they have to be silver for them to pay.
Then for things like the front teeth being way worn down, they can only bond which in time discolors. My friend has a new one and it already is yuck. I would love veneers, but I am pricing them, and first, as usual, I would have to be able to afford it. Second, wear a mouth guard every night and third, but probably first...address all that makes me grind my teeth. So if I can get past the cost, of the process, I think finding people that will help with the addressing the issues is easier. I actually have found people that I saw Crumpet had mentioned also. I just had not joined in on the thread. I have a couple offers to try that same process for free because many people need studies on it for PTSD. In france there is a study that needs people with symptoms like mine I noticed...but I also saw it is in France.
But so far, I have not seen a good Samaritian who just wants to do something nice and give someone a dream smile. Heck there are so many people who have it so much worse. Who am I to complain or ask for help. I just was hoping there might be a program or something. Insurance never covers all you need. They will cover a lot of things even if you have the best....but not what you would like.

I was wondering if any of you knew of any programs that fix these kind of things and resurface or veneer your teeth for a discount? (if not free) Lots of medical programs pay for the problems that arise from having trauma but not the things that happen such as breaking your own teeth off in your sleep. Slowly I have watched as my teeth have worn down and gotten smaller and smaller. To most other people this is unseen, but to me, I can not only see it but feel it. These last few weeks I have chewed with my front and back teeth only. Trying to look natural and not make a big deal of it. My plan covers for fillings and such, but slowly I am starting to look and feel so yuck.
I reached up and after the dentist looked at my tooth Friday, I knew my crown was loose, but she was insisting that I was complaining about something that was where they had not worked. What does that mean. Of course I was. I was complaining no matter where it was. So I reached up and pulled. A LITTLE, not hard, because I am a wimp as far as pain....and my tooth that had an implant and crown in it fell out. She had said maybe it was loose and to come back in a week. But I am thinking that she was putting me off. Because I have been drinking Ambesol.
Anyhow, I really want this fixed and fixed really nice without paying a fortune. Any ideas?

I want to say it was for either supposedly stripping at a party on the tabletop. Fabricated of course. I did not even own red panties then. (By the ratfink or by me..I don't remember, so I won't blame her.) All I did was have a beer or maybe two, kiss a boy and pee in the KH boys urinal. LMAO That was an odd fit. OR playing strip poker in the park. I lost, and refused to take my sweater off. It went to my knees. This was the 80's you know. Whatever. So picky....these JW's

Jt~Had some good things to say. lol
And well as far as friends I believe love for people does not divide it grows so you can be very attached and "best friends with several people" but the hard truth is, you do good to get out of this life with one true friend. So you that have one. Concider yourself truly rich, and if they are one and the same a husband and a friend. WOW. And if a husband friend and lover...well that is amazing and a beautiful thing.
Now if this has lasted through time and and storms. That speaks volumes if truly communication has been reached and both are blooming and happy.
A rare, rare thing indeed.
