Save Your Teeth

As happy as I was to get rid of my painful front teeth and begin the process of having a permanent bridge put in, I’m sorry I didn’t take better care of my teeth over the years. Unfortunately money was a factor for me but as I am getting used to my temporary bridge I realize now that I should have made my mouth a priority. Smoking was a major factor in destroying my gums and that makes me feel sad that I have waited so long to quit this Vile habit. To those of you who still have all your teeth do Whatever it takes to keep them. Ain’t nothing like the real thing my friends.

Me too, I accidentally broke two temporaries, but the tooth he attaches it to was loose.

Didn't have to pay extra.  I've avoided pizza, because even tho it's soft, it broke anyway.

I have an appointment today, and then in one more I will have my permanent in.

Yayyy, for dentists.
