I think he just really wanted to help you out. So which did you end up going with, braces or veneers? I would’ve gone with the braces, since they’re more of a corrective solution than the veneers. The veneers are more like cover-ups, and they don’t last as long as the correction via braces and retainers do. Braces take more maintenance, but then sacrifices must be made to achieve perfection!

You have the superpower of having more footnotes than encyclopaedias in just one blog entry.<BR/><BR/>Your secondary power is to not number them properly.<BR/><BR/>You could avoid the whole series of issues with your teeth entirely by running into a Jungle Gym again, knocking out all of your teeth. Pureed foods are the bomb, and I hear it would help drinking become even easier!<BR/><BR/>Dave - good that you can go off so casually on the dental profession like that. You might want to talk to Dan about your lack of trust in his line of work. If anything, knowing dentists gets you free gas.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14327898.post-19173191631425380102007-06-03T13:31:00.000-07:002007-06-03T13:31:00.000-07:00Awww, thanks Jody!Dave - agreed.

In my experience, the dental industry as a whole got <I>real</I> bored with what they do somewhere around five years ago, and now it's not enough for them to just clean your teeth. Now they have to do oral cancer screening, and under-the-gumline cleaning, and goddamn uvula cleaning. Have you smoked at any time in the past, like, ten years? Why don't they check your fucking prostate while they're at it?Davehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06856187137331544258noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14327898.post-48603756458176033992007-06-01T19:11:00.000-07:002007-06-01T19:11:00.000-07:00I actually noticed a long time that you don't do a...I actually noticed a long time that you don't do a full smile in most of your photos.. I noticed that, because I rarely do either, after undergoing years of braces and have weird contraptions in my mouth (one of which is still cemented to the inside of my lower teeth).<BR/><BR/>I hate dentists.. Last time they tried to convince me to drop $500 to whiten my teeth. I was like "why?" and he said because they were stained. To which I replied "so are yours."Duane Storeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13482186139417171610noreply@blogger.com
