Rotting teeth?

I've been with my boyfriend for nearly 5 months and I JUST realized that his few top front teeth are a gray/brown color starting from his gum line. They almost make streaks down his tooth. He stays the night at my house almost every night and I NEVER see him brush his teeth. So I bought him a toothbrush for my house, but still never uses it unless I use mine and force him to do it with me. I love him very much but hygiene is very important to me and I feel slightly grossed out while kissing him. Are his teeth rotting? I don't think he has ever gone to the dentist because his family doesn't have much money nor dental insurance. Is there any NICE way I can break it to him and tell him that he needs to brush more and drink less soda? He has a new job that offers dental insurance, so hopefully they can hel him out.

Rotting teeth?
yes they are rotting.... tell him u want to go to da dentist together n make appointments 4 da both of you n use his insurance.... when dey drill his teeth away be next to him for support n yea juz tell him lets go to da dentist bcuz if he doestnt go he's gonna lose all his teeth n he probably has gum disease
Reply:Well maybe when you break it to him you can make it almost like starting a new lifestyle. For example you can say.... "I've read that drinking soda rotts your teeth, I think WE should start drinking less and brushing our teeth more". Maybe you could make it seem like something you both can start together. I know it's kind of cheesy, but it's the only thing i can think of.
Reply:Well , really, that is gross. Not only do gray/brown teeth look just horrible, but if he is not brushing , he could have even more problems you do not see. I suspect he has gum disease, too.. Since he now has dental insurance, you need to flat out tell him he needs dental care... and fast. I'm surprised he doesn't have bad breath.
Reply:WOw, I have been there done that. A guy I dated needed to brush more. He brushed 2 times aday but his teeth needed more!! I would just encourage him to use the dental insurance at work.





You said his family doesnt have dental coverage. You should pass this site below to them. I can't believe they never go to a dentist.





Good luck girl
