    If you don't like brushing do what my dad and a lot of other brit men his age did in their 20s - have them all pulled whether they're in bad shape or not:eek:.

    It used to be a 21st birthday present ...paying for your daughter or son to have all of their teeth pulled.

    Not only in the uk. There is a museum in Hobart with displays of rooms fitted out from different eras with lots of info on the era. One of the info pieces indicated that the same thing was done in Tasmania too.

    Think back to how many of your grandparents had most of their own teeth, not too many at a guess, dentistry has come a long way from the time when all dentists did was rip 'em out.
    no-one said on their death bed I wish I spent more time in the office!

    I have dentures so the question is somewhat irrelevant to me.

    However as I have paid for my dentures with good old fashioned cash, at a time when a dollar was worth a dollar , I consider them my own teeth.

    Maybe not my original teeth but still my own.
