Dental Country was born out of a simple yet profound idea: to bridge the gap between dental professionals and the public by providing an all-encompassing platform for dental knowledge. Founded in 2013 by Dr. Sean Myran, a graduate of the University of Pennsylvania School of Dental Medicine, Dental Country started as a response to the growing need for a reliable and comprehensive online resource where both dental professionals and everyday people could find trustworthy, accurate, and well-researched information about dentistry and oral health.
Dr. Myran had witnessed first-hand the complexities faced by dental professionals, from managing successful practices to staying up-to-date with the latest dental technology and products. At the same time, he noticed how challenging it was for patients to find accurate, digestible information about dental procedures, oral hygiene products, and how to choose the right dentist. This dual perspective inspired him to create Dental Country, an online space that could cater to both audiences.
What started as a small blog quickly grew into a multifaceted platform with a wide range of dental resources—from practice management tips to in-depth product reviews and educational articles on oral health. Over the years, Dental Country has expanded its offerings to meet the evolving needs of dental professionals and patients alike.

You need to chill . Looks shouldn’t define whether u wanna live or not . Your lucky that you can afford implants most people can’t
Selyna someone says they’ve contemplated suicide and you tell them to chill?? Holy shit.
J C. Marie it’s a response not uncommon to those that have never dealt with depression themselves. Until you get it, you just don’t get it.
Way to invalidate a suicidal persons feeling. That’s not cool at all.
Unfortunately looks do play a big part of your life (maybe not for everyone but some). However implants should improve the matter.
Imagine yourself with a failing implants. Losing a tooth or teeth is hard 😩and just because someone get to have implants means they’re so lucky, just because they have money for it. It’s about trying to seem or feel whole again after being broken…it is hard to live with some discomforts of losing teeth. Just because someone have implants does always means it’s a successful job, there’s discomforts from it as well & unfortunately not always successful..Implants can suck if not done right by someone who just wants to get it done just to get money from someone.
You need to speak to someone about depression my friend. I know how it feels, and you don’t have to feel this way, and you DEFINITELY can overcome this and feel zest for life again. Speak to a physician, and be open about your depression. It’s a very real thing and only gets worse if you let it. Stop letting it, get help, and get back on track to being the you you deserve to be!
Your lucky to have implants hey I lost my three lower front teeth bcuz of diabetic but I am living I don’t wish to die I wish I had cash so that I can have implants
I’m glad you have your parents. When I used to contemplate suicide, my parents and my siblings are what kept me here. Then I had children and knowing how it would hurt them kept me here. All I can say is…there is light at the end of the tunnel. You need to try to love yourself regardless of how you perceive your appearance. Try to join support groups online if possible, even seek therapy. You’ve got this!
I am sorry about your teeth but don’t allow them to dictate who you are. And dentist don’t exactly know long implants last — enjoy them now. And who knows stem cells research has come a long way. There are tons of reasons to find happiness all you need is one.

I am here in Dominican Republic getting my teeth fixed. My front 2 teeth was also messed up in an accident when I was 14. I had root canal and crowns that was so messed up that they messed up the 2 teeth beside them 😩 they took the crowns off and omg I look like a drug attic right now. I won’t even go out to eat right now. Moral of the story is you can replace your teeth not your life hun
If you need someone to talk to message me. I haven’t smiled or showed my teeth in over 15 years. Your teeth don’t define you at all
I’m sorry you are struggling with the implants. Perhaps the accident associated with them is deepening this sadness and depression you are having. I hope you are not in ongoing physical pain with your teeth or elsewhere.
You are not alone with these thoughts and struggles with dental issues. I am unsure where you are in the world, but therapy may help. Perhaps free counselling is available if money is an issue. If there is someone nearby that can help you find those resources, all the better. You are not alone and this is hard. Someone can and will help you.
Seek out a virtual counselor if that’s easiest for you (therapist here). This is a setback but definitely one you can overcome, but you do need some emotional assistance and therapy to help you deal with it.
I’ll also add that I have a close friend I’ve known since my 20’s and I would have never known had she not told me, but when she was young, her mom couldn’t afford to take care of her teeth & her front 2 rotted out. She had fake teeth and I had no idea (not sure if it snapped in, implants, no clue, because like I said, I would have never known).
You got this. You just next some support.
I am praying for you! I remember feeling that down! I have no teeth now!!
A set of dental implants would change my life in so many ways. Unfortunately I’m multiply disable which limits my employment marketability. Although discrimination is illegal employees take one look at that white cane and all they see she’s a blind person who won’t be able to muster up to what they want. It doesn’t matter that I might even be overqualified in some instances. I’m not posting more to say oh I’ve got a better story than yours. I’m just trying to let you know there is always someone a little worse off than you are. I need a whole set of dental implants to save my life and I can’t get it. So I do understand deep depression and yes every day that I don’t commit suicide is a plus for my family. The flipside is it makes me scream inside why the hell did I even wake up.
Im so sorry you are going through that. I really do think dental procedures will be more affordable in the near future. We need to fight to make this happen. Please make an appt with a psychiatrist. Praying for you!
Society places too much importance on looks and teeth, smiling is the most joyful, beautiful thing we can do and our teeth shouldn’t stop us from this. Please stay and talk to people about how you are feeling. I send my love and wish your situation improves 💕💐🥰
I wanna give you a big hug. I’m so sorry you feel this way. I am praying for you buddy.
I don’t understand.. You DO have implants now? Show us a picture. Would love to see how they turned out.
I know its stupid to say this but “count your blessings” imagine me, i have also felt that way and im missing back teeth. I cant even afford implants. Most movie stars dont even have teeth they also have implants. Most people you will meet along your way will also have them. Just think about how lucky you are you can even afford them. And save up just enough for an emergency implant & in that way they will last forever. Btw i had a bf that was missing a front tooth and i still thought he was the most handsome man ever lol.
Implants can be replaced if they fail. Enjoy what you have and try not to worry about what may not even happen..look at the amazing strides that have just been made in the last 10 years and what will be made in the next ten.
They should last a very long time. Losing teeth is depressing but you have implants now, enjoy your life today.
If you consider suicide because of 2 missing teeth, you’ve got bigger problems
Dan N. really Dan?
Elayne B. yes really.
Dan N. seriously? Just because it may not seem like a huge issue to you, doesn’t mean it isn’t someone else’s personal hell. Don’t downplay someone’s feelings.
Felicia I. he/she has bigger problems than 2 missing teeth. FFS there’s people out there with no limbs
Dan N. and? It still causes major depression in some people. It’s not to be taken lightly.
Felicia I. whose taking it lightly? You want me to jump on a plane to where this person is and hold there hand?
Dan N. yes, likely severe depression. And your approach is tactless ❤️
Jessica H. so is yours. Have a nice day.
Dan N. when someone wants to end their life? That’s when gentleness and tactfulness comes into play. I’m sorry you cannot see the difference but I’m glad you cannot relate. Depression and suicidal ideation sucks. I honestly wouldn’t wish it on anyone but I’ve been there so I try to be more gentle when someone is in that dark a place ❤️
Jessica H. I love the experts who diagnose someone within a few paragraphs. Personally I have to know someone longer than 3 minutes to formulate my impression of them.
Dan N. give me a break. You don’t need to “know someone” to be kind.
Jessica H. have a wonderful day. I wish you the best
Dan N. you too ❤️
So sorry you are going through a rough time. When I was going through chemo and radiation treatments I lost my hair, eyebrows, eye lashes and gained a bunch of weigh. When I looked in the mirror I didn’t even recognize myself BUT I was still alive. Cancer didn’t kill me and I still had the gift of life. It didn’t matter that I was bald, I was still alive. 7 years later my hair is back, I have a few eyebrows and all of my lashes and yes I still have the majority of the weight, lol! That was just a season in my life and now I’m in another season. Your teeth don’t define you. Yes it may be embarrassing, but you are alive and there are so many people fighting for just one more day. During COVID I have been feeling really good because we wear masks and nobody can see my teeth. Now that things are opening back up I have to prepare to remove the mask and get my teeth fixed. Hang in there and know you are not alone. We are all here for you.
Hey, nobody knows the future, whether implants would last a life time or not, maybe the person who is placing implants is himself/herself not confident of placing implants. There are many other options, implants are neither the only option nor the first and last option.
Stay happy and confident, there is long way to go in life. Do what you like and that would keep you happy. Enjoy your life so that you can tell others your story that one can still be happy and confident with teeth substitutes. Stay happy, strong and feel blessed to have parents around you.
Brother i lost three front teeth i am understanding your pain,i also live for my parents but suicide is not only one solution,if your implant fail you can again implant,don’t worry i know a big number of people have around the world who are feeling and suffering same problem, take my love from Bangladesh

I guaranteed to you your implant will last much longer u ever think buddy and have faith in ur self ❤️❤️❤️🤗
You have severe depression that requires a doctor’s help. Please get help.
Please speak to someone. So many people are depressed, therapy does help. I can’t afford implants. For someone that has taken care of their teeth-I may need dentures unfortunately.
Please do not be depressed. Implants can last a very long time. You will be old! By the time if you ever need them replaced, dental technology will be more advanced and will be better. I know how you feel. I had an accident when I was 20. My front teeth were so ugly. I just had one pulled last week. I never smiled. Dentists kept telling me to hold off getting implants. I pray mine works! It sounds like yours worked? You are so young and have a whole life to live. Life chances so fast.
I wish great things for you. Go see a therapist. Yes, don’t ever do that to your parents. They will never get over it.
I hope you go talk to someone ASAP.
I have a friend who’s had implants for her front teeth for over 20 years…still going strong.
Have you thought about therapy though? I think that would be a good idea for you
Your hurt will always remain no matter anyone else’s story they leave on here. I also had a root canal on my front lateral tooth when I was 19. I was mortified. Worse I couldn’t afford a crown so the dentist warned me that it will fall out one day. I had nightmares for YEARS about this tooth falling out… recurring! It is not about being vain so I completely understand.
Fast forward to April 19th last year a month into the pandemic my worst nightmare came true! My front tooth feel out eating a soft taco.
I am a Speech Language Pathologist and people look at my mouth up close EVERY DAY! I had to cancel a meeting I had in the morning on top of therapy via internet that I had scheduled the next day. I was MORTIFIED!!!
Then the first attempt to implant failed because my bone was like quick sand the doctor said and he said he would try again in 4 months!!
Second attempt succeeded (🙏🏼) but had to wait 4 more months for the crown and have to wear Invisalign. So supposed to be released to get the crown on June 16th and then 2 weeks after that so they can make it and last night at a family gathering, my Invisalign fell out of my pocket and the family dog (puppy) ATE IT!!!
All I am saying is please seek help! You are NOT alone and depression is very lonely but it doesn’t have to be.
Your parents LOVE you so much! REACH OUT! I beg you. It will all turn out ok! Your implants took and if they ever fall out or fail in 10 years… you just get another one!!!
Don’t be silly there are worse things in life than losing just your two front teeth
Ann G. it’s not being silly as you put it
+it’s not a competition of whose worse off we’ve all got problems.
I am losing all my teeth because of the gum disease
Even if the implants don’t last, you can replace them or get something to help. I’m sorry you hurt so much. 😔
Even a flipper if you had to ❤️ I do understand though, genuinely. ❤️
I have a broken front tooth and the teeth to the sides are very very bad. I feel exactly how you do. I’m a single mom who lost work a year ago and also got out of an abusive relationship 6 months ago. I’ve always been scared of going to the dentist to get it fixed… now I’m ready… I want to start dating again and having fun but I have no confidence at all… I started my own business so I don’t have to leave my house or talk to anyone. But… I can’t afford it… and I really don’t know when I will be able to… so I’m probably gonna be like this for a very long time. Makes me wanna cry just thinking about it. Thank you for this post… it’s hard for me to talk about it so I know how much courage it takes to talk about this. ❤❤❤
Jagdish P., I totally understand. It shatters your self esteem. I have been there and I got to the stage where I would wear a mask everywhere, but home alone, I would still cry. Depression was so bad and I only remained alive because of my children. I am so grateful that my father stepped up and helped me finance all on 6 implants. If you care for your implants they can last a long time and down the track, you can always replace them. You need to reach out for some mental health support, maybe medication. Just look at these groups, you have so many people who know exactly how you feel. Draw on their strength. I totally feel for you OK, your not alone.
I go through these thoughts on a daily for this same reason 😔 one day at a time I guess
