There should be a much bigger warning about medications, especially psychiatric, causing tooth decay.

Why?

I do what I'm supposed to. I brush twice a day, floss, get regular cleanings.

Despite good oral hygiene, I had cavities last time. I'm still in the midst of getting them filled (there were eight...one big, seven little ones). Three down, five to go.

So, here I am, happily eating my grilled cheese sandwich.

*crunch*

[Eek!]

After investigation, it seems a part of a tooth has chipped off next to a filling in one of my back molars (on the back side, not on the top of the tooth).

[Confused] [Wall Bash]

Guess I'm calling the dentist tomorrow. *SIGH*

At least it doesn't hurt. And the filling isn't loose or anything. But I keep poking at it with my tongue.

I wonder if it could also be cause from the pressure of my growing-in wisdom teeth pressing on my very back molar and the very back molar pressing onto the now chipped molar.

I've been blessed with no cavities, despite my addiction to sweets.

It's his way of showing affection, Mack. Just go with the flow.

It's hard to go with the flow if he's stolen all my toilet paper.
