Bionic teeth

Today marks yet another milestone in my life. After 9 years and 3-4 different "stages" of progress, my teeth are now functional and look really nice. on March 6, 1998, I was in a car accident that led to 9 years of dealing with teeth issues. I cant yet claim them to be over, but they seem to be getting done. In '01 I started to have trouble with my top front teeth. They were changed to implants, finished in June of '02. Then, in June of '06 I had all that metal and porcelain removed and started with what would be a very long journey to have my gums and my teeth restored to a much nicer look. Its been a long, expensive road. My mouth is now worth about $176,000. Its a good thing I invested as much as I did, rather than just go shopping. We struggled with the loan as it is....but its all good. I already tested out the new chompers tonight with BLTs. They were yummy, and much easier to eat when you can bite down into them. Anyway, Im happy to have teeth that work!

Congrats on the teeth milestone...there's a pizza in your future. I was trying to think of a pun but couldn't get past rhyming molar or bi-cuspid ??? However you spell it. Yay teeth :)
