wow..its amazing that i know exactly how you feel....i had dental surgery where they dug out 3 teeth and i had to go to school 2 weeks later...i felt horrible and embarassed...





what really encouraged me is knowing that i had friends who would stand up for me nomatter what and i kept saying to myself in the long run it is my education that i would be missing out on... so i sucked up my fear and anxiety and went to school and to my amazement it went a whole lot better than i thought...





the worst part is that i thought i looked horrible cause my entire jaw was inflammed and i could barely talk...many ppl asked me what was wrong and i told em and they actually wanted to see my stitches(i had about 18)....i was alot kooler than i thought....





maybe you should be a little less tougher on yourself.....i hope my experience helped
Reply:That is odd the dentist did not give you temporary teeth to put in until they grow (must be a reason) Not much you can do hun, deal with it till they come in! People are mean and tease just ignore them if they do! You may notice that no one really cares!
Reply:My boy at 14 you are not going to get two new front teeth next year, you got those two beauties when you were 7. So I do not know what dentist told you that you are going to get nwe front teeth next year, but he must be a quack. Well get some dentures.
Reply:I feel bad for you. I had braces at 17 and felt like I stuck out. If you have any true friends at school they wont care what you look like and will be there for you. Keep your head and be proud of who you are and try not to let the other kids bother you. If you show up with your head held high you will be ok, but if you act like it bothers you people will cause you more grief. Be proud of who you are and dont let missing 2 teeth bother you.
Reply:its not your fault, if people are mean to you tell them to grow the fk up nd get a life. if they're mean because you've had dental surgery which mean you'll probably have a badass smile when your older then thats there loss, because they just wont have you as a friend. and anyway january isnt THAT far away, and there are holidays comming up pretty soon. just dont worry, you'll be okay.





trutt me; in years youll think back and laugh about the time when you didnt have any front teeth.
Reply:Just by getting dental surgery shows how brave youare if u can do that than im sure you can face the kids at school as long as you have your true friends beside you then it shouldn't matter what the other kids say and when your teeth grow back im sure you will still feel the same way about yourself just have confidence and know your beautiful in god's eyes and that's all that matters
Reply:The best way to face this problem is just being yourself and not worry about how u look =).
Reply:screw 'em





you don't need the bad opinions of people at your school.





I've had four teeth pulled at one time.
Reply:They didn't give you temps. until Jan? That's strange..I'd check on that....
Reply:grow up
Reply:are they really your two front teeth? if not could you further explain what teeth they are because it would make more sense in a world of dentistry since the two permanent front teeth grow in at age 7-8.. if they were your canines ( the pointy ones ) which if this was the case, this happened to me also and you just get over it, say.. they are growing innnnn.. i mean seriously everyone has gone through but i know how cruel 14 year olds can be, so you just have to be strong yourself. good luck.
Reply:Don't smile, lol. J/K, that would be difficult to deal with... I remember in my sophmore year I had 4 molars pulled at once. It needed to be done because they were growing in sideways and would have made all my teeth crooked. They were impacted under bone, not just under the gums so I needed some major oral surgery. My face was swollen for weeks and my cheeks/ jaws were black and blue for a loooong time. I got teased so bad about it! People thought my parents beat me up!
Reply:Just act normal and if anyone asks, tell them you lost them while you were doing something cool like bungee jumping or while you were swimming with sharks. XD.
