Whew, not bad

[Pitchy]

Just got home from dentist, nine down six to go, not bad so far.

[Pete44ru]

I hope the rest of yer family don't torture ya, with pizza fer dinner ! .

[Pitchy]

Just the wife and she`s pretty easy on me
I`m glad to get these teeth out, probably half my health problems.

[.45colt]

Man I hope ya didn't bust them in that Air-E-O-PLANE ride?..Get well Soon Kimosabi.

[Blaine]

Are you getting some store bought?

My last dog, Oreo, died from infected teeth that caused his whole body go septic. Real bad for your heart, too.

[Pitchy]

Man I hope ya didn't bust them in that Air-E-O-PLANE ride?..Get well Soon Kimosabi.

naw, too much drink and smoke over the years and not taking care of them.
I even get a little back out of the deal, have one gold one.

Yep, full plate on top and partial on the bottom, six good ones left on the bottom to anchor too so that`s good.

[AJMD429]

I'm disappointed in you, Pitchy - you seem to figure out how to do or make just about everything imaginable yourself - I'd have figured you'd pull 'em out yourself, and make some new ones the same weekend...

You will probably feel much better with them out, if they were chronically infected and inflamed; and it IS bad for your heart to have chronically infected teeth and gums; get rid of them if you can't fix them...!

[Pitchy]

Thanks bros, i`m feeling good about getting rid of them and hope it makes me feel a little better.
Make teeth, hmmmm, wood or steel, weld or glue.

[ollogger]

Hope it goes good for ya & im sure youll feel better
dont try any of that goo to take the slop outta the teeth
for me it was like getting glue off your hands, im slow so I
had to try it a few times, but no more

[Sixgun]

Ha! 'Ole Doc says he would pull 'em out and make new ones himself!

Yea Pitchy, you will wonder why you did not do it years ago. You will feel so much better. Back in 1978 I left all of my front teeth on the steering wheel (my wife found a couple on the floor board) of a brand new 1978 Trans Am after a night of drinking at the Phillies game. Thought I could make this sharp turn doing about 70. Well, this 200 year old Beech tree pushed that 400 C.I. motor right on my lap. Anyway, the dentist put this $3500 fancy permanent bridge around the rest of my teeth and it was nothin' but trouble ever since.

Toothaches, infections, and bad breath were the norm. After 20 years I went to the dentist and told him to rip everyone out. He says, we can save 'em, blah, blah, blah. I says that I'll find someone else to do the work.

After they were all out (one visit) I ate scrambled eggs and soup for about a month. No more brushing...no more toothaches...............just a tab of Polident everyday............simplification

Hey! Lets see a picture with you smiling! Now, try to say "soup" ----------Sixgun

[Pitchy]

Thanks guys, little hurt at the moment but took a pain pill.
I`m not mean enough to post a picture in this condition bud.

Praying for ur recovery

[Mescalero]

Heal well, Viejo

[pwl44m]

Hey You still talk pretty good for being almost Toophless.
I keep trying to get them to pull the rest of My bottoms but They just say "We can save these".
Go as long as You can before impressions, give Your Gums time to heal and shrink then the need for fillers and relines deminishes. I have never used anything and no relines for about 30 years.
good luck and happy chomping.

Hope you feel better soon. Got a few new toys for you to try out

[LeverBob]

The funniest thing I ever saw was when my old great gramps pulled his teeth out & let his face completely collapse...Heh! I was 4 or 5...thought it was the greatest fun. If he chewed his jaw it lookid like he was eating himself from the top down. Gadzooks, I may be giving y'all ideas for some pranks.

I can't do that because I still have all my teeth & still in good shape. Dingdangit...

Yeah I am surprised you had to go see some fancy pants dentist. Seems like a vice grip, some JB weld, maybe some scrap lumber and you would have been OK

Thank the heavens for pain killers. I had all mine removed some 20 years ago and I don't miss them one bit. They hurt me most of my life but I haven't had a tooth ache for two decades now. The bottoms don't need anchors, just a little adhesive.
I found that life is better once I got rid of the things that caused me pain. My teeth, that mucked up finger, the 8mm mauser, the push mower, ole what's her name.......................
Gobbler

[Pitchy]

you guys brightened up my morning, thanks
Feel pretty good, the other six uppers go tomorrow then i`ll let them heal for a month or so before impressions.
Bummer is it`s taking away from my flying time.

[madman4570]

Hang in there Pitchy!
When all done you will feel much better!
Prayers up

[Mescalero]

I think your flying time was curtailed by lack of altitude, air speed, and air foil design.

[Bill in Oregon]

Feeling for you bro. I had an emergency root canal last week myself.

[Pitchy]

Thanks buddies, get through tomorrow and should be good.

[Pitchy]

Well i`m now toothless, on the top anyway, whew glad that`s over with
Thanks for the good cheer.

[J Miller]

About three years ago I had the remaining bad teeth removed all at once.
The dentist was fast, efficient, and actually complimented me for not fighting him. I had no desire to fight him, I wanted them gone.
They were one of those one day dental places and I got the first set fitted right then.
The problem was my gums were so swollen from years of infection that when they shrunk, the relined teeth lasted about a month and the gums shrunk again.
Without glue I couldn't even talk with them. And the glue didn't last very long. I need new teeth, but even without them the lack of pain is soooo very welcome.

Hang in there Pitchy, as soon as you get the new choppers you'll look like a new man.

Oh and a tip. When they show you the color chart pic the color about one shade off to the dingy side. Real paper white teeth show up like a flash light on a older guy.


Joe

[Pitchy]

Gotcha buddy, i`m going to wait at least a month befor getting impressions.
Taking pain pill and heading to bed, later brothers

[redhawk]

I had a great uncle who was a preacher who blew his false chompers out while preaching. I was a youngun' when this happened and thought I would get a whuppin' for laughing so hard in church. One of the funniest things I ever saw

I`ll probably have to go through that stage too.

[Pitchy]

For you guys that have been through it, i keep finding slivers of tooth in my gums where a tooth was pulled. Went in the other day and he pulled a couple out but now i`ve found three more. One feels like a pretty big piece of tooth, is this normal to happen.

[J Miller]

I'm pretty sure it's more normal than not. I had bone chips and slivers work out and my wife had to have removed.

That jaw bone just don't want to give up that tooth sometimes. Something gotta give when that old dentist has the vise grips on the tooth.

Joe

[Pitchy]

Thanks Joe, thought maybe no one else has dentures.
Sure be glad when its all done so i can pig out again on some good pork steak.

[Gobblerforge]

I only had two bone chips work out and the both worked out the same day. About a month after the big pull.
Gobbler

[Pitchy]

Thanks bro, the slivers arn`t to bad but there`s one chip that`s pretty big

Leason being for all the young whipper snappers, brush, brush brush, keep them in good shape this denture thing isn`t no fun.
