I dated a young lady who'd had some kind of hoof and mouth disease when she was a baby and never grew teeth, just kept getting plates as she grew. Funny how I learned this... the first time we were necking and my tongue pushed her lower teeth away... She was embarased all to hell until I told her it was unusual, but I'd still be her BF and not tell anyone. Until now, I've kept that promise. Oh, that was fifty years ago.
Getting implants 65 yrs old, not an overnight or next day fitting, process is this in case your thinking about it: pull all teeth get cadaver bone implants to fill gaps where teeth were, wear denture for 4/6 months while its healing, after that will be fitted with dentures that are screwed in so the bone can grow around screws (think molly bolt and screw). Another 4/6 months the real implants will be installed. Before any work to be done there are xrays, scans and measurements for dentures to fit, the cost $50K. Long and painful at times process, the key find a good dentist and oral dentist that work together for best results. End result, never have to worry about fillings, crowns, cleanings (1x a year to ck implants), bad breath from bad teeth. Zirconia for teeth and Titanium screws to hold in place.
No teeth equals ugly face/mouth, hard to eat anything & dentures are just a pain as you never are sure the adhesive will hold or for how long because after 6/8 hours the holding strength begins to wear off and flapping begins. $50k is worth not having the denture hassle.
Things she will do for a dime bag

DeleteHow does a young lady lose all her teeth like that? I'm almost 65 & still have all my original.

I'll keep my bad teeth and spend the $50k on booze, broads, and cigars.
DeleteMe Too - spend the $50k on booze, broads, and cigars.
DeleteHow long do you think you will live as a healthy human?
