Dentist.....

Why don't we hear much about his teeth,
we know he lost some at an early age.
I bring it up because I just returned from the
dentist, I had a tooth pulled, it's amazing how
such a little thing can bring so much pain.
The dentist did a great job, thankfully no
complications that I know of, (I didn't feel a thing)
if there were I didn't feel it.
I kept thinking of that dentist song that's from a new
group.

lol.....on Jonathan Ross many years ago he said his teeth were all fake ....but i think he meant his top ones are veneers.....i think his bottom ones are all his though and he'll get them whitened to match the top ones........
lol.............but why do the British have a reputation for horrible teeth??........It seems that the whole world thinks our teeth are nasty......lol.......(mine are great BTW....... )

Dentistry is still advancing and it's good to know that
not just the elite can have nice looking teeth

i swear by my Oral B sonic toothbrush and those tiny little brushes you use to clean between your teeth...... They're a helluva lot cheaper than root canal treatment..........lol........

@ Fluffy LOL

It's not always considered that British or Europeans have bad teeth. My husband has a enamel thing that as he ages the inside of his teeth discentegrade, leaving them very brittle and breakable. He's had root canals and everything. Also an idiot of a dentist shaved his gums to make his teeth look bigger (all it did was leave parts of his teeth that had no enamel on them exposed to outside elements. He is very self-conscious of his teeth. Since then he doesn't smile with his teeth, just his lips.

I think that when we can get the moola for it, I'm so signing him up for veneers. I would love to see him smile again and boots his self confidence!

awe that sounds awful for him..........my friend is getting veneers because she's literally ground her's down to tiny stumps in her sleep......... .......

That's the major way to extend teeth but as
age creeps up, I have friends that have had
plates since they were 30 yrs old.
I figure even if I have a partial at least I
can smile again and it is not as costly as
having several root canals done and I've
already had one fall apart after 10or so years
too bad they can't do a plate that will be similar
to veneers with a partial.
I hate it when I chew and end up biting my tongue
arghhhhh! because my front tooth is really jagged
