I do all my own dentistry. Theres nothing quite like scraping calcium deposits off your teeth.

@ ldngrrl, letting blood & having molars taken out at the root are not even close to being the same thing.
Dammit, i think people are afraid of the dentist because it's fundamentally invasive, they speak in a strange number code language & it's generally uncomfortable.
And they say stuff like buccal and lingual and then tell you you're not flossing enough.

hoping for carbon fibre, will probably get some rusty shit 531 metal instead!

True.
The pegs have to be Titanium apparently- for reasons beyond my limited understanding, but to do with it's non reactive nature.
Then probably ceramic over the top- which might look better than carbon fibre to be fair.
At £2,500 per tooth this will be the most expensive bit of Titanium that I own.

for that money you could have got a custom fitted serotta
am sure that replacement teeth will get cheaper as the population ages

Apparently one option would be to go to either an Eastern European country or some parts of Asia- but friends of mine who are dentists say that some of the implant teeth that they use are indeed a touch Soylent Green.
I am debating whether or not I would like an American smile or a 5K custom road bike.

Anyone know the recommended dose for the following?
Zapain Capsules,
Codeine Phosphate 30mg
Paracetamol 500mgI've just had one- wondering if I can take two safely?

i think the smile riding a 5k bike is better than a hollywood veneer

i looove going to the dentist.
Having read what you've had to go through, I've got to say you're a better man than I am.
I'm not a huge wuss, but I do a proper whitey when I have to have injections of any sort, and God knows what I'm going to be like when I have a blood test on Friday.
Chapeau sir - chapeau...
