Americans are getting dental implants more than ever — and at costs reaching tens of thousands of dollars. Experts worry some dentists have lost sight of the soul of dentistry: preserving and fixing teeth.
Originally I had just 1 top one removed, I wanted to do top and bottom separately.
By the time I got around to the bottom one, it righted itself and was no longer dangerous to rip out. I cant even remember which ones I got out at this point, I know I only pulled 3/4. That's how unproblematic the fourth was. I only got the other pulled because they were getting cavities from their bastard positioning.
The dental surgeons looked at me with disdain when I didn't fund their car payment on unneeded work. Simply waiting made it go from "very risky" to non-issue and not a single dentist/surgeon thought of it as a possibility for me.
I just remembered the second part of this story.
