[tri-med] Re: Receding gums

Maybe I should just savour the fact that Ellie enjoys brushing her teeth at
the moment - it may well change in the future!  Just bought her an electric
toothbrush which she loves using so fingers crossed the novelty factor will
stay around for a while :-)

dentist, I would brush them for him until he was about 10 or 11. After that
he would fight me so I gave up. He is now 25 and has lost about half the
teeth in his mouth. The dentist is getting him a partial, but I am certain
with his lack of concern about dental hygiene, he will be in full dentures
inthe next five years. I have no good answers. Dom has always been quite
healthy. Nan
