please check my sentences for grammatical errors

Is there any way you could get all my teeth even? All my teeth look real jagged.

My teeth are a disaster. I need a makeover to make my teeth look nice.

I'm in a great agony. I had a root canal yday and the pain is excruciating.

Thanks

You should change "real" to "very" in the second sentence. Some compound sentences would make the writing flow more smoothly. You should always double space after a period.

Anonymous You should always double space after a period.
This is old advice, and generally a single space after a period is practiced now. It's a matter of style, not grammar.

I agree with the other comments, except I don't object to "makeover" and "make" - although I like the suggested revision.

Hi,

The Present Perfect is not normally used in cases where the sequence of events is clear without it. Words like 'before' and 'after' usually make the sequence clear with Simple Past Tense.

eg After Marko spent his holiday in Rome, he wanted to learn Italian.
