[QUOTE="THAT Gurl, post: 4171191, member: 45551"] Uhmmm ... Sheepishly raises her hand ... 🙋 I have had my entire mouth done. Bad genetics and a life-long Diet Coke addiction did a number on my teeth. By the time I was 40 my teeth were less teeth and more mercury-laden fillings. Plus I had knocked my 2 front teeth out in junior high (middle school to all you youngsters out there) and the crowns they put on were wearing out. (Yeah, that stuff doesn't last forever.) I have to say I really can't recommend it. I've had my implants for about 25 years now and I am already starting to have trouble with them. Actually they've ALWAYS been a bit uncomfortable and bothersome. For a few reasons: 1. The dentist who put them in did a miserable job and my bite has never been right. 2. Because of number 1 (I think) I have several teeth that are cracked. But I'm not going back to get them fixed because everytime I go to the dentist I wind up looking (and feeling) like someone has taken a baseball bat to my face for a couple weeks after. No thank you. 3. I have a ... I dunno what it's called ... Basically a piece of teeth that the tree broke the one post holding it in so I can take it out like people who have dentures can take out their teeth only I'm not supposed to be able to do that. I'm just careful not to eat anything sticky and I chew slow and gently so if the post does pop up out of the hole I can take it out and reposition it and put it back in. I probably should go get it fixed but 🤷🤷🤷 Ehhhhh ... I dunno. So ... There you have it. Oh I do have a few of my own teeth. I think 3 ... Maybe 4. I haven't really ever thought about it. Lol [/QUOTE]
