About the artwork
A few years ago, I was 7 months pregnant and I felt one of my teeth moving a bit too much. So I went to see the dentist, he was recommended to me and it was the first time I saw him. He told me very bluntly this day that I was gonna lose all my teeth in less than 2 years. I remembered trying to keep my feelings for myself until I got out of his office, and then cried for hours. I went to find another dentist this day, who explained to me that I had a very bad case of periodontitis and that I needed to have my plaque analyzed. Turned out I had amoebas ! It is now completely treated and cured thanks to this dentist with a microscope. This experience was really an emotional rollercoaster for me and so it inspired this short series about teeth. Enjoy !
