The Hole Tooth

The Hole Tooth

By the time you move into the Old Folks Boarding House, you have lost that first tooth you cut and a bunch more.

Maybe that’s why several years ago my dentist located a block away from my senior lodging.  The better to make and fit dentures.  I get a new one this Tuesday.

Daughter said her daughter told her she wasn’t the first to throw dentures into the trash.

If you cover the false teeth, hide inside a crumpled paper, lay on the table, then any diligent table cleaner will throw away dentures.  Also retainers, my oldest Granddaughter consoled.

The good news is that my dentist manufactures less expensive dentures with a 3-D printer.   Going to save “grand”.

Memorable. This episode helps me recall when we tied a string to the tooth, tied string to the door knob, and the Tooth Fairy left a dime on my pillow.
