My Medication Left Me With No Teeth | SHAKE MY BEAUTY

NATALIE had no idea that a minor car crash would lead to losing her teeth. Suffering with back pain from the accident, doctors prescribed her medication, but after just a week, Natalie experienced extreme vomiting from the meds. She told Truly, "My stomach was on fire, almost everything I was eating was like a hot, deep burning, stabbing sensation. Then it turned to vomiting. I was just vomiting non-stop and because I was vomiting multiple times a day, I was brushing the same amount I was getting sick." The following year, Natalie was taking a sip of her coffee when she lightly knocked her tooth with the mug. To her horror, half of her front tooth snapped out. Natalie explained that she rushed to a dentist, "They asked what happened and that's when they told me. The brushing after vomiting, especially for that long, would have been enough to totally obliterate the enamel." Since then, Natalie has lost more teeth and relies on dentures - something that she has sometimes struggled to deal with getting at such a young age. Natalie explained, "Getting dentures was a knock on the confidence. I put a lot of my identity into my looks at that time and so everything changed." In this episode of Shake My Beauty, we'll hear about Natalie's journey and how now she doesn't just embrace her dentures, she loves them. Reflecting, Natalie said, "Dentures do not mean the end of smiling, if anything dentures are just another reason to keep smiling."
