mummy2girls replied: Well i was VERY VERY BAD! I never saw the dentist for 10 years..no wonder i had gingivitis..im surprised i havent lost my teeth. But with the half cleaning my gums look alot healthier...Boty after this i am going every 6 months.

Kirstenmumof3 replied: We used to go every 6 mths but DH got a new job and now we don't have insurance. In Thunder Bay at the Health Unit their is a program called Children in Need of Treatment (CINOT) and they do dental cleanings for Children up to age 18 and then if there is a problem they refer you to a Dentist and you recieve an insurance form. I am lucky that I am now recieving disabilty and now have dental and prescription coverage!

natjasem replied: I go every 6 months- I love cleanings! Having healthy teeth is very important to me. There's nothing more gross than nasty, yellow, dirty teeth!
