No shit: It's been fourteen years for me since last dentist I went to, which was for swelling on the inside-side gum of my bottom-right wisdom tooth plus a little tiny sore/abcess in the gum around 2-3 teeth forward of it and about a cm down from the gum line (inside), with something feeling very hard right at the bottom of the abcess with my fingernail. I go to two offices which both fail to locate anything in my mouth. Both shill wisdom tooth extraction (I still have all), and I refuse. At home I begin to irrigate between gumline and wisdom tooth with mouthwash using a 26-ga syringe (originally pushed test cyp) until swelling is gone, and over that period that hard spot I thought was my exposed jawbone at the bottom of the abcess began extending out a bit until I managed to grasp it with a fingernail and pulled it out: turned out to be a half-cm section of jawbone which was on the inside wall of the wisdom tooth, which must have cracked off and migrated a few teeth over, to slowly pierce out the gum. I still have that bone in a baggie, a little divot on the gum just below the gum-line of my back-right wisdom tooth where that piece of bone used to be under the gum, and all four wisdom teeth!
No tooth pain, no (apparent) cavities or rot, they are yellow/stained because coffee and cigars, I hardly brush (I mean hardly) and probably floss & mouthwash 10x as often as brushing, and even that is very irregular (few times/week). I hardly consume sugar and watch carbs like it's slow-kill cumulative poison. I have a mouth built by the gods!
