Ouch. Mine will be around 11k for this round. Seeing how much trouble my mother is having with her teeth and being restricted in what she can eat is extremely motivating to get it done though.
As well as going to the dentist keeping on top of regular brushing is also really important. I’ve not been good at this (it was never really pushed when I was growing up so I didn’t really develop it as a habit) and have really focussed on it more recently. Strangely enough a toothbrush tracker has been really helpful for me - just knowing it is being recorded in an app whether or not I brushed my teeth has been enough to motivate me to be much more consistent about brushing.
I’ve spent about 17k over the last 6 years, and have another 7 or 8k to go.
Go to the dentist regularly everyone!

I had the same issue growing up, it didn’t become a habit.
I’m a twice a day, floss at night person now.
Considering how much I’ve spent I want to protect my investment lol
