I think TCG is going to be a really good dad some day. He was so cute with G today, and now he's all worried about the poor, teething boy.

All my life, I have had my teeth cleaned twice a year. I brush. I floss. At every dental visit, I bask in the glow of the technician telling the dentist that I have the best home care ever.
My teeth:
- Tetracycline stained, so they'll never be white
- Four pulled for braces
- Four wisdom teeth pulled the old-fashioned way. Two turned out to have weird mutant roots and took forever to heal.
- 2 that are about half bonding, because I broke them in a fall
- 11 gold onlays (Thank you, late lamented Emory Dental School)
- 2 root canals
- 1 crown
- 1 missing because it was unfixable and not replaced because it's in the back
- 1 replaced with an implant after a root canal, gum surgery and crown failed to save it

Tetracycline stained, so they'll never be white
Me, too! When I was a kid, I got teased about it, because my teeth were not just not-white; they were sort of mottled. In high school, braces covered them, and finally after college I got veneers, but because the veneers are a polymer and not porcelain, they've gradually gotten discolored from all the coffee. They can't be lightened, so if I want non-coffee-colored teeth, I need new veneers, which I *really* want (I'm vain; so sue me), but I'm not even considering it until I have my credit card paid off (which I hope will be by July or August).

I'm really thinking about veneers, but the drilling and grinding kinda freaks me out.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I have a friend who has been self-conscious about her teeth all her life, and at 67, she's finally getting the whole Hollywood mouth.
I've thought about it, but there's no possibility of my having the money in the foreseeable future, in part because I've spent so many thousands just trying to hang onto the ugly teeth I have.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Steph, have you tried Ensure? It can be drunk at room temperature, and it's supposed to be all balanced and stuff. I love the chocolate. Got me through my smashed up lip back in the day.
Amych, glad to serve.
