My Husband’s Tooth is Ruining My Life

Now, if you saw my husband, you’d think “normal guy, normal teeth” (or if you’re me, “hot guy, normal teeth.”) However, his teeth problems and hesitance to visit dentists have nearly lead us to divorce and devastated me emotionally time after time.

BUT fortunately for me, after 9 years of marriage, we’ve come a long way in the world of teeth.

The difference perhaps between my husband and yours is that when my husband breaks or LOSES a FRONT TOOTH, he refuses to get it fixed/replaced for about a year. Why? Because you dummy, the dentist will mess it up and make it worse. (How you can make a hole where your front tooth should be WORSE? I am not sure–you’ll have to ask my husband.)

So now he has a chipped tooth, one of the two front teeth (the 3rd dxxx problem with a front freaking tooth). For two months, he refused to go to the dentist. Finally, I threatened to do mean things to him, and I scheduled a dentist appointment for him, and he promised to go. He showed up 15 minutes late, and they wouldn’t see him (too many other patients). Then he refused to go to another. This means he has now had a front chipped tooth for 3 months. He couldn’t care less. He thinks it’s totally unobvious, yet everyone notices it.

It’s very embarrassing. I don’t want to go out in public with him. I don’t want to kiss him. I love him, but his chipped tooth is ruining my life and making me very sad.
