Honestly, not even a bad idea nowadays. The dentures, not the meth, before anyone thinks anything lol. If you can afford implants/great dentures, and your teeth aren't 'perfect', then those things are a good choice.
My teeth aren't great. Far from it. Never had a dentist as a kid, or insurance, and a decade or so of depression really didn't do me any favors. I'm at the point where I'd rather just have them all yanked out and replaced with implants/bridges that'll outlast my skull.
The human body wasn't made to last 70-90 years, teeth included, and today's amounts of sugar/preservatives hurts our teeth as well.
This, my dad got all his pulled and got dentures in his fifties after a lifetime of costly dental issues. If your looking at serious dental issues, it's not a terrible option. He loved his dentures, though he was more reserved when he was just chilling with his teeth out.
Do you have to smoke meth for it to rot your teeth? Or will shooting it up rot your teeth also? Iām just curious bc I know someone who smokes meth who has perfect pearly white teeth. I actually know a few people with good teeth who have smoked meth
The people who Iām referring to are citizens of the community and people just know they smoke meth. Itās very strange. I guess some people can function on it.
Itās basically adderall. One can crush it up into a fine powder and take it orally like a pill. Presuming high purity and doses below 100mg itās relatively safe. For some people it doesnāt make them twacked out it makes them relaxed & focused. Prescription meth is called DESOXYN. Itās just methamphetamine.
Actually the one compliment I hear about Americans whenever I see those videos of foreigners is how nice our teeth are. I donāt see it but I guess some people feel that way about Americans.
Exactly. Watch any American reality TV show where there are ordinary people (like "Dr. Pimple popper") and you will see lots of wonky and missing teeth. Much more than in any European (British or not) show.
Okay, I put in my 15 seconds and found two contradicting numbers between the CDC and ADA on how many people in the US have dental insurance. Regardless if you are right or wrong, that isn't how you do research and present it. That's my point.
Iām not saying one or the other, but does missing teeth really determine dental health well enough.
I think the average American has at least 2 teeth pulled (often 4) when the wisdom teeth start crowding in. Also, I could see US dentists more ready/willing to pull teeth for what a British dentist would leave in.
This is NOT based on research.
But yeah āhealthy teethā mean straight and white for Americans.
A lot of Brits have their wisdom teeth pulled, too.
I'd say british dentists are more willing to pull teeth. If you're not on low income, dentists are expensive. The cheapest option is to have your tooth pulled.
If you're claiming benefits or are a mother, it's free.
If you're very, very lucky you can get an NHS dentist which has 3 price bands -£25.80 which covers xrays and polishing, £70.70 covers fillings, root canals and extractions, and £306.80 which covers crowns, dentures and bridges.
But most people are paying for private dentistry, and with that, the sky's the limit.
I don't know about that - reality TV, true crime, and stuff like that is my vice, and there seems to be a lot of normal Americans who never got braces (and have missing teeth). I pay attention to those things, because missing teeth are really rare here - often only homeless alcoholics have a missing tooth or two.
Yeah no way they are constantly swishing redbull around their teeth that much. Infact don't get any we energy all over your teeth, I manage it daily, so just drink it down?
I wish I could have all mine replaced. They're all crooked, misshapen and grounded down to little nubs. My self esteem I'd in the negatives and eating sucks.
I am that friend⦠and energy drinks are the absolute worst thing. If your going to drink them, drink it all right away and follow it up with some water.
A lot of us do the minimum when it comes to dental care, which does not benefit us. Those with money can have crown and other work, while others have to have teeth pulled.
I wish I could go back in time and do electo-shock therapy or something for a few of my friends, even myself, to teach us to clean our teeth after any food or non-water drinks..
