Bothered by ads for dentures

My mom has been struggling for some time to get an appointment to get dentures put in. Not covered by insurance – Medicare doesn’t cover dental – even if you have the cash it’s ridiculous how hard it is to get the care you need.

Moreover, these ads you often see on my blog and others are scams – usually they are about generating clicks for dentists or other medical services – not connecting people to needed health care. As I don’t have internet at home and sometimes connect at my parents I get associated with targeted ads for them.

At the same time I’m a bit worried about my own teeth which since turning forty have really had a downtown despite or maybe because of my healthy eating habits – all that apple cider vinager, fresh fruit, oatmeal and fiber from veggies – is kind of bad even if I’m skipping out on all the processed crap. I do floss daily now that I’m in my forties, though I’m not so good at camp with doing this and I should have done more as a younger adult. I often burn my gums too eating hot but delicious food fresh off the stove. So they’re sore at times too.

I don’t know. It’s just sad so many of us can’t get the kind of dental care we all need. And I’m quite worried about my own dental health and where it’s leading me.
