I assume that if I am careful and use a high quality dental probe, I would be able to check for sticky spots on the tops of my teeth that would indicate caries formation, without much risk of doing any damage. Is that true?

| two questions bone graft and cementing | 18 Oct 2007 20:39 GMT | 9 |
First off I have really bad teeth. Poor dental habits (or I should say no dental habits) instilled when I was younger and a heavy meth habit in my late teen, and stopping dental work midway due to costs or switching insurance = really bad teeth (I'm now early 30)
