Hey folks ...been a long time. Missed the Forum and you all. Doing ok. A few health challenges here and there but that's part of this life, right? Still playing the B3 and just had the Leslie power amp rebuilt.

 

Will check in from time to time nd sorry for the long absence. Cheers!!

The jury is still out regarding an implant as a long-term solution.  Any thoughts or experiences about implants, especially a front tooth?

I needed two incisors back in the late 80s (don't ask) I've always been around 5'8" 150# with an extra *ocky attitude when I used to get lit. That led to a lot of black eyes, busted lips and bruises.  ** For me too.

 

The specialist dentist told me they would last five years tops. It hurt, the root canals and all but the posts and their porcelain are in there forever I'm sure!

 

Can you talk like a pirate? That expression looks like your going Arrrrrrr! 

Good Luck

FYI breaking off a living tooth at the gum line would hurt like hell.  I’m not that stoic. The tooth has been dead for more than 5 decades.  Root canals and grinding had reduced the dead tooth to a post.  Several crowns have served me well over the years until the remaining post broke.

Yes it did for about 24 hours, couldn't take aspirin (thins the blood) couldn't drink... would harm the gums. Lucky it was on a Thursday night instead of the weekend!! Got replacements the next day.

If my math is right, that makes 500 years for that dead tooth.

That's a good run.

I was thinking you looked a little rough, but for your age, you look marvelous!

A decade is 10 years, i.e., 5 decades equal 50 years.  Five hundred years would be five centuries.

Is it safe?  I mean does it shut off automatically when it detects phil effing Collins?

There must be some kind of mistake.

You sure know your Phil C stuff for someone that claims to not like him!

I bet it goes deeper, some underlying truth. Jilted ex, cd playing when your goldfish died, ......Deep down, you're a fan.

I bet you even know what what Sussudio means!
