Do you have any fillings in your teeth?

Lots 🙁

No one in my family has had "good luck" with teeth. I'm hoping I'll be a candidate for dental implants in a few years. Hopefully, the procedure will be a lot cheaper for multiple teeth.
 
Had a crown done last week (already broke the temporary) and having another tooth crowned on the 26th. Dental work is expensive as hell. Good thing that despite my separation, my "wife" still letsl me ride on her dental insurance plan. Even with that, I'm still paying close to $1000 for two crowns.

No value on teeth though. Small price to pay to keep your chompers.

(although you might have to change a couple of the composite fillings you have to match)

how are your gums? 😛

they can be pristine teeth and still fall out of your head when you've lost enough bone due to gum disease.

and just have vacant holes? 😕


Nah... I want to get them replaced with something like composite... I think the mercury in the fillings is giving me significant health effects.

don't buy into that. if that were true don't you think all dental professionals would have replaced their amalgam fillings?

nah. amalgam (silver) fillings are better suited and more durable for back teeth which we do the majority of our chewing on.
