tooth Implant

[Paul B]

Anyone ever get any tooth implants?
I just had my 8th one. Great invention but expensive.
Of course I am older than most of you people on here with baby teeth but I had a tooth pulled in Viet Nam and they pulled the wrong tooth so I had to get another one pulled. They didn't have X rays there or the capacity to fix a cavity so they just pulled teeth. I know, like the dark ages.
Anyway when I got out the Army paid to replace those 2 teeth with a bridge.
They last about 20 years then kind of ruin the teeth they are connected to so you eventually need to fix them.
This is all from a tooth ache 40 years ago.
But implants are great. You can frag corals with your teeth. You just need to hold your breath while you stick your head in the tank :shhh:

Paul I am going to need 4. The Union just authorized to pay for them so I am going to do it. Can't wait to frag

I think the union will give you $700.00 for each implant unless with the new contract they are paying for the entire thing. If so, the dentist owes me a lot of money back.

Yeah, sometimes when I am bored, I go to the dentist and tell him to drill a few holes just so he has something to fill. It is better than going on vacation :tongue1:
