I inherited my Dad's teeth. By the time he was a 17 year old in the Canadian Navy (he lied to get in), he had a full set of dentures. Fortunately, for me, dental procedures have come so far since Dad's day, that now, you don't have to have every tooth that cracks, or breaks, or chips, or gets knocked loose pulled I have a bridge, and several crowns. If it wasn't for this advanced technology, I can't imagine what my front teeth would look like! I had them knocked loose a couple of times during sports, and eventually they need replacing, of they were just going to "fall out". I got a bridge put in there, and it just made a world of difference in my appearance and my confidence! I've had them for 20 years, and I'm so glad I went through the procedure to get it done. Find a dentist, if you're new to an area, or don't have a dentist you're satisfied with!
