I have terrible teeth. The ones at the front are okay, but my molars are a disaster. They’ve been giving me trouble for about ten years. At this point they’re literally falling apart.
About a year ago, I decided to start saving up to get implants. It’s a big job, and expensive, but I just don’t want to deal with them anymore. Replacing them with fake teeth that will last until I’m dead is a great alternative.
So I went to the dentist to get them removed, and he won’t do it. He says they can be repaired and that I just need to book 12 appointments to have a root canal, a bunch of crowns put on, and a filling. I know full well that these god-damn things are going to start falling apart again as soon as he’s done.
For some reason he refuses to contemplate removing them. I’m going to have to travel to a different country now to have the work done because the dentist at the end of my road is too much of a fucking pussy to do it.
No serious dentist would replace original teeth with implants if he still sees a chance of saving the original. Implantation is always their very last resort. Also, having implants doesn’t mean you can live a careless life „until you’re dead“. To not loose them too, it’s even more important to maintain a proper oral hygiene. If your jawbone-structure starts to degrade, you rather end up slurping your dinner through a sippy cup for the rest of your life.
