I don't know what to do about my teeth anymore
Hello, I want to start this by saying English is not my first language so I'm sorry if I get any terms wrong.
I've been neglecting my teeth for about 3 years.
I know I have cavities, my teeth are stained, one of my front teeth has shifted a bit, all in all I know my dental hygiene is absolute shit.
I know my dentist has been angry at me, I've been going to him since I was 12 I think? And I've never been great at taking care of my mouth, but I've been straight up not doing anything lately.
Well, I have this metal string behind my teeth. Recently it has snapped, and it's extremely sharp. It's been fucking up my lip for a week now, it hurts a lot I can't stand it.
I know I should call the dentist and tell him, but I also know he'll see the state of my mouth and be extremely disappointed. I don't think I can handle another person being disappointed in me because of how much I've been neglecting my health.
But speaking hurts, my lower lip is constantly bleeding because it keeps catching on the bar. I keep telling myself that if my mouth gets any worse I'll just kill myself, but I don't want to die yet.
I don't know what to do, I don't know for how much longer I can handle this.
