"Still Smiling"



Amazing what they can do with a few titanium pins and some good glue. Good as new and then some. There's quite a story behind those front teeth of mine. When I was a kid my right front tooth had come in turned almost sideways and my parents spent money they didn't have to get it fixed. They could have saved their money because when i was about 15 I had it broken off during a high school wrestling match courtesy of an elbow to the mouth. There was enough toooth left to put a peg in and glue a crown to it. That lasted on and off until I was about 30 when the remaining tooth split down the middle and they had to pull it entirely. That's when I had my first of 3 different bridges, this last one having lasted for about 10 years. The only thing I was really afarid of this time was that they would have to pull the one that broke when the bridge came out. But thank you Dr Busvek....I think I was in the chair for less than 45 minutes and good to go!!

The whole thing did kind of mess up my day however. I should have been taking care of this mess



But it will still be there tomorrow....and maybe the next day?

And I really wanted to be putting this together.



It really is amazing....carbon fibre, aluminum, ceramic, and of course some titanium to match my teeth. The whole thing weighs just over a pound. I'm pretty sure it's gonna go together tomorrow regardless of the mess on the kitchen table.

After all, the ones about making money, and the other about spending it. Which would you rather be doing?
