I am blessed and grateful that God gave me the option. And I LOVE my new teeth.

I had fantasies of getting the dentist to try a different structure for the base of the implants.

1st to wound the bones where the implant bases would go.

Then put a sort of rigid bit of mesh structure for the implant to screw into down in the bone for the bone to regrow into as well as around.

That was because I understand that one of the drawbacks of implants is that they don’t do well with lateral stresses.

Anyway—just more of my fantasies! LOL.

Congrats on great implants.
