^ I understand what you’re saying about most people not realizing what kind of damage they’ve done to their teeth until they get clean. I for one knew exactly what I had done though. As soon as I got my shit together I started going to the dentist to fix the damage. I had frequent appointments so they could keep an eye on things. Mind you, I was on suboxone for 6 years straight, so that was a good amount of time to get a feel for the trending curve (if you will) in my mouth. I did not have any issues with my two bottom front teeth. About 4 years into sub treatment, my doctor asked me if I was sucking on candies. He said specifically that I had too much build up between my two, front bottom teeth. All my other teeth were fine except this one area and I had been taking good care of them for years..

My dentist didn’t know I was on sub, btw. He could tell that something was going on under my tongue there. Just sayin.. I don’t consider this hard proof, at all, but I have my strong suspicions.
