I am in a mood......I do not want to know if you have false teeth......just wondering if this the kind of question we put on the senior section, rather then a joke?
Yeah I know, I will be in HOT water by some....couldn't resist.......

The question is in the right place, if you're are truly interested in the number of 'seniors' who have their own teeth, if it is idle curiosity,, GOOD, it shows your mind is active .. if you are wanting to be mischievous then perhaps you could have re-phrased the question .. as for being in hot water .. I doubt whether any of us, 'serious seniors', would belittle or deride the questioning of younger minds .. and in answer to your question at 66 I am proud to say I have all my own teeth and only one filling

Should imagine it'll be the British respondents who don't have all their own teeth as we are renowned for having terrible problems with our dental service.....and to prove my point....Tc is currently struggling to cope with a top partial denture and I've got a full denture at the top and a partial denture at the bottom. I've only got 6 of my own original teeth left, good grief! As for whether this is the sort of question that should go on Seniors is entirely up to you....if you want to ask it...and that goes for any other question. We're all getting nervous about what we can and can't ask or answer these days but we'll all keep this section going coz it's a blooming good section to come into.

Actually, I don't think you will be in hot water. I do have a false tooth on top in front. When I was in middle school I was at State in softball and the first night we got there, I was wearing my cheerleading shoes and the laces were long and I tripped on them and knocked my tooth out. I was also wearing braces at the time, so those also were bent up into my gums. I know the hospital kept harrassing my parents for payments. So the next day my mom came to get me and I missed out on going to State. But then someone else got hurt two days later.
At the hospital, they tried to shove my tooth back in my mouth but it wouldn't stay. It fell out later that night. And it really hurt when the dr. did it.
So that's my story.

No, I don't have false teeth. Yes, you're in the right section here with your friendly neighborhood group of 'seniors'. Tell those party poopers to take that hot water and make some tea and to get over it. lol

Honey false or not they ae our own as we will have paid for them. This is the place to find more people with experience so you are right on. Many young people and vistims of wrecks and accidents also have them.
So what was it you want to know about false teeth. I heard yo Momma has 'em and hates 'em. Better listen to her before you make any drastic changes sometimes Mother knows best.

Let's see...at the rate I am having bridges installed, I will qualify within another 6 months! I cannot believe the cost of bridges! By the time you have extraction, then root canals, then temps, then the final bridge...gees! And I only need two more of them before I am finished ...this round! And I am usually asked, "are those your own teeth?" To which I reply, for what I paid for them, they damned well better be! Trust me, I did not lease them! "
Peace and love, Goldwing

CHERYL...........Soooooooo funny!!!!
I have toofies. My Aunt (my guardian) got drunk and knocked out the front ones when I was 16. (oh so dysfunctional) I left home and bought a partial after getting a cleaning job and later on in life, the wires ate through my other teeth.

To the divil wit' dem trolls. My teeth are falling out. Missing two lower, no molars on the left upper, only one lower left. Right molars are still there with one where the filling fell out two years ago. Upper left beaver tooth as a hole in it. And upper right fang has a cavity forming. Can't get Medicare until February. But I still kiss good!!!!
