I'm so embarrassed, a few years ago now, I started to drink energy drinks. Having kids and working long hours they helped, but the addiction settled in. 3 a day, give or take. I was someone who grew up looking after my teeth, braces, regular appointments. But the drinks become a priority. I knew If I brushed my teeth my drinks would taste funny. Sounds pathetic. But now I'm in the process of quitting them I'm so so embarrassed. I don't smile, I have extreme toothache, taking painkillers and numbing gel to try and help. Dentist and procedures cost so much in the UK for people that work. Plus I'm scared and embarrassed
