It’s a strange feeling, going from having teeth, to having them removed and replaced with a temporary bridge, to getting implants and crowns put in.
I’m no longer popping the bridge on and off of my teeth.
I can eat without feeling the bridge come loose on the food.
But it still feels different on my tongue, where the crowns meet the other teeth, and the different seams.
I am careful now, but in time, I’ll do something stupid.
Break a crown, or pull it loose, and it’s back to the dentist.
Until then, I am grateful for modern dentisty.
