    Coincidentally accurate comment for me. Just had a tooth that I had grown very fond over the years removed and left vacant because of the cost associated with replacing it rivaling that of cars I’ve bought in the past. As the teeth shift and get loose because of the missing soldier, I’ll just have to allow them to fall out or have them pulled until I can have dentures made up.

    I have dental insurance, it’s just none of that necessary tooth replacement if you want to keep the rest of your teeth stuff is covered.

      Same boat here. I’m down 2 teeth already thanks to this bullshit medical system. 2 teeth I absolutely did not need to lose completely. Thanks guys. Also thanks Navy for pulling those wisdom teeth that didn’t need to go, I really could have used them now.

        Same for me. MC pulled my wisdoms literally while I was at Mt. Fuji. They just decided the entire platoon needed them gone. It didn’t matter if yours were problematic(like leaning or sideways). If you had them, they took them.

          Yeah they wouldnt listen to me wouldnt do x-rays, nothing. “Winsdom teeth bad, must go”. Meanwhile I was very aware of the fact that I have sufficient jaw space for wisdom teeth. My dentist was really happy that I didn’t have to get them removed… fucking navy dental is so bad.
