    Check up, 3 years overdue.

    Incredibly attractive girl, about 16 at a guess.

    She asked me if I wanted restorative work, implants or false teeth, I said
    my daughter would rather have the money than bury it.

    Sound about right?

    Like; but chewing gets harder the less teeth you have.
    You can guess how I know this.

    Hear here. It's nice to be able to chew things. I can eat rice much
    faster now it doesn't all get lost in the holes.

    Dentist said "Some people take to them okay, other people just don't".

    It may also be a question of how much zbarl they want to relieve you of,
    of course.

    For the first ~ 20 years of my knowing him, I never saw my
    father-in-law with a big broad smile on his face - his bad teeth
    were an embarrassment to him. But once he eventually got dentures
    it was pleasant but quite odd at first - to see his face
    open up into a _real_ smile !

    All his life and until I was 20, my father had a front tooth that was significntly rotated maybe 20 or 30 degees around its long axis. Not
    senstive about it, had a nice grin.

    No longer able to chew much, age 65, went to the VA hospital to have
    everything out and (eventuaally) get full dentures.

    After that his smile seemed strange to me. His only complaint was that
    he had lost the ability top generate an ear-piercing whistle that
    could be heard for half a mile. Never learned to do it with nice,
    straight teeth, much to his annoyance.

    Need to keep all soldiers in a row and replace absentees with something
    or the rest tend to wobble and run away....

    Get a recommendation of a good dentist from someone if you are worried
    about overcharging.

    I recently broke a tooth and got it capped. Was over 10 years from the
    last visit, but dental practices and their tech has changed. I was dead
    scared of that dr&#l as a youngster but now me visits are as painless as having the car serviced.

    PS.

    Cheapest fluoride toothpaste = good
    Electric toothbrushes = good
    Flossing = good
    hard bristles = bad.
    brushing immediately having sugar = bad
