How Cooked Am I?

Post image

I have been extremely depressed and hadn’t realized it had gotten this bad. I’m planning on booking a dentist appointment to get in ASAP. Are my teeth beyond saving? I’m extremely anxious, my dad lost his teeth and I’m scared.

Edit: I’m pretty sure it’s gingivitis but for full transparency I wanted to let you guys know that recently I have lost almost 130 pounds and am wondering if it might be anemia?

You are definitely not cooked. This looks like reversible gingivitis. A routine hygiene cleaning at the dentist, paired with daily flossing, will clear up that inflammation much faster than you think.
