Anyone here ever had to wear a flipper until getting a tooth implant and how did it go. nm
:
Me too! One time hubby and I pulled in front SM
of a car doing that and put our turn signal on. Then another car pulled in front of us and did the same thing. It was a TRAIN!!! For miles it went on like that down the highway, and the guy behind us never got a clue.
Have friend who has false front tooth. Can be done. Looks
xxx
Did anyone ever have a dental implant for a front tooth and wish to say what
they thought about the whole process with wearing a flipper, etc. until the implant.
I have to have a front tooth removed because it cant be fixed anymore and has had all it can have
done to it. It was damaged when I was young along with the one beside it. Has anyone had a front tooth removed and instead of an implant had a partial or something put in for 1 tooth. What do you recommend other than an implant. I have lost a lot of bone with this tooth so it would be a very long process for an implant. This tooth has cost me a fortune so far.
/;) umm no but a friend lost a front tooth and had to go without - which is worse? she'd say us
:)
I have to have front tooth removed after multiple apicos on it and it just keeps reinfecting. The
tooth next to it is also not the best having had surgeries so bridging is not an option. These teeth were broken when I was a kid. Any suggestions other than an implant for the space. This is quite upsetting as I have spent a fortune on these 2 front teeth.
She needs hard things to help wear the tooth down. Try clean branches, a wooden spoon, wood chews

flipper....sm
You can get a flipper for just the front tooth. It's mostly just for looks, and hard to tell it's not the real thing. You just can't bite down with it like for an apple, but you can with soft foods, I think. DH has two of them. One is kind of tight and really, really hard to get out, but he got a second one that fits in perfectly (although with a big sneeze, it kinda pops out....lol).
Anyway, his dentist made it for him, so just check with yours and see if he will make it for you there, or send you to someone else nearby.
I'm not either but every once in awhile
there is one that comes along who's personality just captures you!
Yep, I had therapy for awhile too
Therapy didn't take the nightmares away and didn't take away my fears. My anger from it is better but not gone.
I think if I stay a little angry, I will be a little more vigilant and protective of myself. It will not happen to me again.
I can feel sorry for the jerk but can't forgive him for taking my security away from me.
And, before the "holier than thou" people jump on the religious aspect of forgiveness and healing, let me just tell you this.
I have seen many different counselors over the years for this. I even sought counsel from my church back then and I was basically turned into the church sideshow.
These were people I trusted but they let everyone in the congregation know that I was a little sinner and had brought a horrible shame upon myself and my church family.
This was not some kind of fanatical church but I won't say which one.
So in case Georgia Gal is wondering which church, she will continue to wonder. Just know that I will never get over this and I just can't see how she could. Church or no.
I believe in God, I just do not believe in church anymore.
This happened to me awhile ago - sm
This advice worked for me - click on VIEW, TOOLBARS and make sure ADDRESS is checked. If it is then uncheck it and check it again and see if it reappears.
Also check on your standard toolbar where the front and back arrows, refresh, stop and home buttons are. I have accidentally drug mine onto that line before and it was a smaller version of it. If it is there you should be able to click and drag it down to it's own line.
We Haven't Done This in Awhile
Show me the area where you live and what attractions are close to you.
Here's where we live:

Couger is fun for awhile. s/m
For 2 years after my divorce, it seemed the only men that wanted to go out with me were younger (10-16 years younger!). I guess all the guys my age were going after the 20-somethings!!. It was fun for awhile -- they have lots of energy -- but I really wanted someone with a little more experience in life, but who could still keep up with me (and also liked new music!). Finally I met a guy closer to my age, still 3 years younger, and it will be 6 years in March!!
Sorry, haven't been to the board in awhile
and just saw this message. To scan slides I have a scanner that is a Visioneer OneTouch 9020USB. I bought it at staples for I think around $99. (bought it in 2004 or 2005). I think on the box it said it had capability to scan slides and inside has these little mat type things that I put the slide on and it centers it right in the middle. Then I had to do some readjusting the settings. I forget how, but am going to have to figure it out again because I've got more slides to scan. I think I either looked it up on the internet. I don't think all scanners have the capability to do slides but am not sure.
A friend of mine did some prostitution for awhile
It was before I knew her. She was very young and homeless and trying to survive. While her case isn't what we're talking about here, as she would have been underage anyway, I still can't imagine putting someone in jail and calling them a criminal because they're trying to survive the only way they know how. And of course, once you have that criminal record, it makes it even more difficult to change your life circumstances. It breaks my heart to think of her as young girl and everything she went through. Today you'd never know she lived that kind of life unless you really knew her and could see the emotional scares she carries (most of which aren't from the prostitution but from the abuse and incest she survived). She's an amazing person, with a huge heart, who spends most of her time fighting against poverty for those who can't speak for themselves.
While I don't know the mind of a prostitute, I'd imagine that most fall into the profession because they have few options available to them. Some don't have options, family support, education.
I think by leglizing and regulating it, you'd have less disease and less drug abuse.
Can't be that. I stopped reading your posts to her awhile back.
She laughed a lot, but it was making her vomit so I had to stop.
Thanks for yet another one of your brilliant brain dumps. They're much better for the tulips than the horse manure we were buying.
Also DUI, pulled over at 2:15 a.m.
between 0.12 and 0.13 alcohol level. 0.08 legal limit. Reportedly was smuggling drugs into rehab. She needs to get out of LA fast.
i just pulled it up and
it says "online tools" and then click on "where's my refund" below that.
Whatever you do, DON'T get them in right after the teeth are pulled
Wait at least a year to get fitted. I was a receptionist and had to either quit my job or get my dentures immediately. Mine fit great at first and was told never to take them out (I didn't) ...then one day when answering the phone at work, my bottoms fell out. Thank heavens no one was in the waiting room. How embarrassing!
I don't think I was fitted correctly as they hurt like heck where the bottom jaw met the top of the mouth. I cannot wear the tops now either. They are too loose. I had them religned after a year but it didn't help. Always had trouble eating and drinking anything. Gagged and choked all the time.
I can't eat in restaurants because I at least wear my tops when going somewhere so I don't scare anyone, but can't eat with them.
As for your question, it cost me $700, 12 years ago and another $300 to get then relined. What a waste of $$
Think I'll change my name to Gums. 
Zoey not pulled unfortunately
From Google....
She's already pregnant, so what other kind of shenanigans could Jamie Lynn Spears get into? Nothing involving her show "Zoey 101," according to Nickelodeon, which set the record straight Thursday (January 3) regarding rumors the network was yanking the show in light of Spears' much-publicized situation.
"No truth to that rumor," the show's spokesman Dan Martinsen told MTV News. "We have not made any change to our schedule."
How about $4,000 for one tooth?
I live in North Georgia and having 1 implant put in, 4000 smackeroos.
I'm a secret fan, too, but I got pulled away from the end. I have a feeling what's
s
No it wasn't, it was pulled off the table to be
reworked and submitted again in January. It won't stop the BYB, they will pay for the licence cause they are making money on all those poor dogs/cats they keep in those cages. That is disgusting and it is inhumane, but those kind of people are deceitful and rotten to begin with and they always find a way.
a long time ago I had a cat who pulled out fur
clear down to leaving an oozing sore that had to be surgically sewn up - vet then said it was an allergy.
I pulled 5 puppies the other day and guess what?
A lady had turned her Pomerarian in because she said was aggressive. I asked the lady who was with me if she wanted to pull that one also she said no, those were highly adoptable and so we left that one. The lady at the place said the dog not aggressive, just being the breed it is with the nipping and such.
Could be tooth abscess?

One tooth, implant
$4,000.00 for me. Have lower partial and all top teeth are crowns but I would estimate, oh, a small fortune.
Long in Tooth (!)
Some amount of gum recession is normal -- That's where the phrase came from: Long in tooth means "getting old."
I recently had some caps redone. They had been put on when I was 16 & now my gums had receded so that you could see the silver part at the base of the ceramic ceramic.
But there is definitely the problem of losing enamel from the surface. I tried a SoniCare for awhile & my dentist told me to stop because he could see little scratches. I think I was being too aggressive with it, but I just didn't feel like my teeth were clean unless I was scrubbing away. Now I just use Oral-B with soft bristles.
What the women wear or don't wear is not the
issue here. They can wear what they want. The issue is what is actually going on in the compound and the laws that are being broken.
I just pulled mine out of private school - sm
It's not all that it is cracked up to be. Our one local one that is not affliated with a church is $6K a year per kid (we have 2), plus an extra $100 a month they squeeze out of you for all sorts of stuff. The other schools in town were half the price but all were church schools which we did not want. So that is an aspect you need to look into if you chose to go private. Also the quality of the teachers, are they all certified, etc. We had a headmaster that lied to the parents and the schoolboard on a regular basis, last year he raised tuition $400 a kid, and shortly after that about 7 teachers/aids quit for various reasons, and in all this I dug up a ton of dirt and things behind the scenes that totally stunk, hence kids now go to public school. Class size is the same for us (19) and the discipline is so much better at the public school. A girl in my one daughter's former class is the class bully and at least once a year tries to choke another classmate, has she ever been suspended? NO. Has she ever been expelled? NO. 2 reasons, they school wants the money no matter what, and the kid's mother is an alumni. So not all kids at private school are well behaved angels. They expect a lot from the kids, but I think this particular school is overpriced unfortunately. ------my other daughter is also in 1st grade. She is struggling terribly in reading, though I take blame for some of that as I am very guilty of not reading to her on a regular basis. I am trying to get better at this, and her teacher at school reads with the kids one-on-one to check on their status. My daughter is slowly improving through her and my efforts. On every other level she is average. She cannot add in her head as yet, but I think that is a little advanced for a 6-y/o. She can do simple math on paper and is doing fine with that. ---If you chose to keep her in the public school (and I would because they have lots of resources that most private schools do not have, our private school had no special services at all despite the high tuition), pick up the slack at home, work on whatever subject she is weak on every night for 15 minutes. I do this with my 8-y/o in 3rd grade math, which is her weak subject, and it has made a huge difference. I am also reading with my other daughter at least 3 x a week (need to do 5 though) and it has helped a lot now. Reading a simple 12 page book used to take 45 mintues, now we can do it in about 10-15. --- It is hard to fit this into my schedule but I know I have to do it so they will improve and eventually excel. You just need to figure out what you daughter needs to do, what you need to do to help her reach that goal, go slow though and don't set the bar so high that she will never reach it.
I know from where I speak, daughter pulled same stunt
caught her at guys home, he probably in his 20s or so and she was 16. If I had broken the door down in order to get her, I would have been arrested. I knocked, they did not answer, went to the phone and called the police and they came and got her out. You can do things illegal if you like but I have never been in jail and I don’t think I ever want to be. Just me, though.
IMO a lot of pulled posts didnt violate TOS but

Have you used a tooth whitening system?
Like Crest Whitestrips or something else? Anything other than having the dentist do it? (That's so expensive!)
I have a similar problem with an eye tooth
had to have taken out due to bone loss and all and got a flipper until I decide on something more permanent. Mine looks so natural and has no metal so you can't tell at all. Insurance won't pay, was 300.00, but it was worth it because it went in immediately after the tooth was pulled. At first was hard to eat bagels etc but as I got used to it and now have no problems. Here's a site I found and I'm sure there is a lot more info and pictures if you search dental flippers.

Huh? How did you break a tooth there that you wouldn't have (sm)
anywhere else?
I had 1 tooth implant and my gosh,
had no idea it would take thatttttttt long, over a year in fact for 1. Like the above poster said, you have to let heal between this and that. I had a canine tooth done and actually it was from 08/2007 to 12/2008 before finished. What I did not like was the false tooth they tried to insert between going back and forth to do this and that, lots of office visits making sure healing, etc. It also cost me $4,000 for that 1 tooth. Quite expensive but maybe if you have more done, might get a reduced price? My mouth probably most expensive place on me, lots of dental work in the past.
Cost of tooth extraction
How much does a tooth extraction cost? I have no dental insurance so will be paying out of pocket. I am pregnant and since being pregnant this toothache has gotten worse and worse. I am to the point now that I can't take the pain anymore. Also does anyone know if you call a dentist and tell them you are in pain if they will work you in asap? Thanks.....I just never knew that a toothache would be so painful.
Need advice - ex has pulled my kid out of school re MRSA scare
My son lives with his dad 500 miles away. It was his birthday today, he's 13 and in 8th grade. I called to wish him happy birthday. He said his dad had pulled him out of school due to paranoia about MRSA (staph infections) outbreaks. I asked him if there'd been any in his school, he said no, just some of the surrounding communities. He said his dad won't let him go back to school until the school "does something abou it". The ex got on the phone demanding I look up two vaccinations for it online and give my opinion "because I'm in the health field". I type radiology, for goodness sake, and even if I was familiar with the names of the drugs, it doesn't mean I'd know all about them just because I could spell them!
Upon researching this, it appears the chances of getting fatal MRSA are pretty slim, and I had much more chance getting it when I worked on site in the hospital than my son does (son does not play sports if he can keep from it). I think my ex is off the deep end, and I'm afraid I might have to take him to court (again) to force him to let the child go to school. His school is closed tomorrow so I'll have to wait until Monday to call them and see how long my son has actually been absent.
Anybody have any advice for me? How long should I give my ex to work through his paranoia before I call a lawyer (again)? Has anyone else taken their kids out of school over this?
It would take VOLUMES to explain all the crap she has pulled over the years. nm

Many posts hafta read fast cause they are pulled if
x
I do have a crown on this tooth and have had a lot of surgeries on it but it is failing now so the
next step is removing it. The teeth on either side are not the best because they were also damaged when I was young with this one.
Funny about Tooth Fairy reveal
When I told my children I was the tooth fairy, at first they thought I meant I was the "Tooth Fairy" ... as in, I was the one leaving money under everyone's pillows. - Lol I got such a kick out of that! :)
Just goes to show you how strongly they believe in what their parents say and scarey that we have such influence (when we are so flawed).
Zoey pulled, great for that, Britney has been a train wreck for
some time. I am glad her sister's show got cancelled. She supposedly is looked up to by these little teeners, not good. I have read there are money problems for the mother, good about that too, she has lived off both her daughters, let them get a regular job. Britney has been spinning out of control for at least over a year and hopefully someone will have her committed. If you or I, and not answering the courts with their demands for parenting clases, drug checks, depositions, etc. we would have already been jailed. It is no different with her. The mother is accountable probably for her sister's pregnancy, heard she let the boyfriend live with them, just trailer trash all of them.
Did anyone ever have a tooth removed after it was root canaled etc. and very brittle. I am
concerned about it breaking off in pieces being so brittle from all the work done on it and now is infected again. Brother, always something. It is a front tooth no less.
I think it's better to be up front
and honest from the start about lending $$$ and stuff (cosigning loans next?), kinda nipping it in the bud as it were. I'll be thinking good thoughts for you.
I had a guy jump right in front of me
As if he didn't see me. I didn't want to make a scene, but I thought it was very rude. I absolutely hate cell phone usage in public. It is very annoying. I will purposefully make noise to interrupt. I think cell phone usage while driving should be banned as well. Most people are not paying the least bit of attention when they are driving and talking on a cell phone. It is worse than driving drunk in my opinion.
especially in front of children
Once I was waiting of food at Taco Bell and a girl was talking to an employee and bragging about how when she worked in another restaurant she and her co-workers stole so much "sh*t" over and continued to repeat the word as well a further other words my son didn't need to hear. Finally I said "Please, he is only 9, can you talk about something else. She did shut up after that.
My little dog rides with me in the front
Most newer vehicles, including mine, have the ability to TURN OFF the air bag on the passenger side, which mine is unless there is a human rider. Also, we have a "Doggie car seat". A basket type seat which he rides in. There is a hook to secure him that attaches to his collar/harness. It allows him to sit high up where he can see out all the windows, plus he cannot climb on me to cause an accident. We need to treat our dogs like children and put them in a car seat. He loves it; he gets to see around and go anywhere momma goes. PS: DO NOT LEAVE YOUR DOG IN THE CAR, EVEN WITH THE WINDOW DOWN, IN ANY KIND OF WEATHER. The interior of your car can heat to over 100 degrees even in 50 degree weather. My sister lost two of her babies when her husband left them in the car last spring.
I liked the part where the guy had to run in front - sm
of his truck and put a rock under the tire to try to stop it, and it kept rolling over the rock. I had a truck like that once.....
better shot of the front - sm
try, try again. This is before the previous owner refinished it, it is totally black now (with all the rust removed).
