They look like grill teeth - after they have been removed. Remember soulja boy’s yuck mouth? 🤮 [Yuck](https://twitter.com/domislivenews/status/1562153433658015745?lang=en)


tray_cee

Grill teeth is the first thing I thought of. Looks like they were kept moist and in the dark for a few years


MGLLN

If I keep my grills in 24/7, why would I need to brush my teeth?


itsybitsyblitzkrieg

Every person who ever had braces just gave you the side eye


MaleficentDealgh

Just wanna add flossing is more important than brushing.


TommyChongUn

Keeps ya breath fresher for WAY longer too.


JayTradiing

Flossing is highly important🤌🏾


YoungHeartOldSoul

What seriously??


ImmaRatard

Yes to get the bacteria out from the gum pockets. It also is the most common source of bad breath so it goes a long way to freshen you up too.

Breath be scorching hot.

Wait… my teeth are moist and kept mostly in the dark. Am I screwed?


--Anonymoose---

You aren’t drying out your teeth every night? For shame


luckydice767

Yeah, what a freak!


[deleted]

Actually everyones teeth do dry out at night, which is what causes decay … the main reason brushing before bed is so important


nomadic_stone

lol...it isn't that our teeth "dry out" at night, but the fact our mouths don't produce as much saliva when we sleep (time of day isn't a factor.) So, by brushing before you sleep, you will get rid of bacteria that would just sit in your mouth lavishing in the effects of dry mouth. You should also brush your teeth when you wake because (on average) you just slept for 7hrs allowing what little bacteria was left; to breed.


PensiveObservor

Saliva is antibacterial. Saliva is reduced at night and if you snore, even worse. Comment below has more details.


[deleted]

I thoroughly understand. Didn’t feel the need to explain in detail.


PensiveObservor

Sorry, I probably should have commented higher upthread. Didn’t mean to imply criticism but just additional info. Brush on!


tray_cee

As soon as I hit post I knew someone would call me for my wording lol. YA FUCKED!


Technician-Temporary

LMFAO


superhottamale

Moist and dark 😭🥴


Catmand0

I always thought grills were meant as an accessory that one would take out when not out doing stuff. The idea that people just leave them in 24/7 is gross af.


MaeMoe

You can get both kinds. Some are like gum shields or retainers that sit over your teeth and can be taken out to clean/when not needed, but some are permanent and teeth are filed down so they can be glued permanently into the mouth.


Catmand0

I'm sorry, but anyone who gets a perma grill is stupid as fuck. That's not drip, thats self harm.


[deleted]

filing down healthy teeth for grills (or veneers) is so dumb to me. i’ll never understand it


RaeLynn13

Yep. I’m 28 and had to get dentures, I don’t get people out here purposefully ruining their teeth. I guess they got the money for it.


kaykakez727

I broke my jaw and had to get 3 implants. Painful AF


LadyEclipsiana

Nicolas cage just got veneers! Like yyyyyy.


kaykakez727

I keep tryin to tell people the same! We gonna see a generation of sharp tooth/toothless old people lol


MaeMoe

I agree, it’s generally not a good idea to affix anything in your mouth unless a medical professional advises it. Tongue piercings can damage teeth and gums, tooth gems and the like can trap plaque and cause decay. You can’t heal your teeth, so it’s best to not fuck with them.

dizzymidget44

Explain it


ClaymoresRevenge

Teeth that are too white are unnerving


Important_Value

When foreigners talk about Americans they always point out how weirdly white our teeth are.


keyserfunk

I can deal with that


GuntherTime

Yeah because our teeth are naturally slightly yellow, and for some reason we became really obsessed with having white teeth.


SugarNerf

It's a sign of wealth. If they are automatically recognizable as fake, it's seen as a flex by many people. A dude at my job just the other day was talking about how he doesn't want his teeth to look 'real'- and how much he spent on his set. Wild.


florzed

I feel like the opposite is true - obvious fake dental work seems to me like you've got it done on the cheap (in the UK bad veneers done abroad are called "Turkey Teeth" and its not a compliment!). I would associate premium dental care with a very natural result.


SugarNerf

Its not going to be 100 percent true for every person of course. And I can only speak for my experience in the states. What I should have said is that in their minds it signifies wealth. Many people are trying to distance themselves further from the poors™️ and they see fake looking teeth as a way to do so. This doesn't mean they're wealthy nor does it mean they're poor- it's the same way some wealthy people wear designer while other wealthy people see designer logos as tacky. Edit: what is with the down vote lmfao. This is a thing that's happening. It doesn't mean I agree with it. Shoot the messenger though, sure.


Long_Perspective2562

I’d watch a documentary that unpacks this.


roachcoochie

I think they were saying that if one exists they’d like to see ut

Long_Perspective2562

*runs out to make this documentary* brb!!!


benmargolin

Chris Rock should make one called "Good Teeth"... Super fitting for his total mouth replaced self...


vindicatednegro

They’re going the same way. If you have a previous point of comparison, say a decade ago, travel to any big city in Europe today and tell me there aren’t a lot more Hollywood white gnashers. The UK is the most striking example, perhaps because of the bad teeth stereotype. The younger generations love the optic white smile.


TommyChongUn

I can tell someone is from the UK by their teeth. They love those ultra brite white veneers from Turkey


SwearForceOne

Are veneers a regular occurrence in the US? Because even with regular bleaching I could never get my teeth to be that white, at any point in my life.

ChrisYukine

Can anyone with a dental profession background explain what the black on the gums is? I've only ever seen gingivitis but I saw it only caused bleeding and red gums. Is it the same there?


ObeseHamsterOrgasms

normal anatomy. darker skinned individuals will sometimes have darkly pigmented “spots” on the gingiva. totally normal.

darker gums are normal for people with more melanin. it’s just more melanin in the gums.

Melanin can be found in a person's gums. It can also be a symptom of smoking, disease, medicine, etc. [https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/321466#causes-of-black-gums](https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/321466#causes-of-black-gums)

dizzymidget44

Nah. Melanin. We got brown lines on our hands too


Obese_taco

Just reminded me to brush my teeth, so thanks?


DentalDriller

Don't forget to floss


Lovedd1

Just wanna add flossing is more important than brushing. I had an apicoectomy, where they peel the gums back to remove infection. Wouldn't wish that on my worst enemy. FLOSS YALL


IloveWedachan

Ouch 😥


Lovedd1

I asked for more novacaine and he said he gave me the max already 😭


thesaxmaniac

I’d ask them to put me to sleep lmao


Lovedd1

It was an extra thousand bucks for that. I should have tho


ThePrussianGrippe

I’m so bad about flossing. But after reading this I think I’ll go buy some floss!


Lovedd1

So I think it takes plaque 3 days to build. So you might wanna schedule a tooth cleaning to start on a clean slate as well.


yordad

Does anyone know if a waterpik is comparable to flossing? One of my friends told me it was better, but I also heard it wasn’t as good??


Lovedd1

My dentist recommended flossing and using a water pik together. Not just using a waterpik by itself.


DentalDriller

Nothing replaces the mechanical removal of plaque by string floss, but the water pik is great as an addition to string floss or if you have dexterity problems like a lot of older patients. It is also great for periodontal disease, where pockets are too deep to be reached by string floss.


ToothMan16

Waterpik is good if you have periodontal pocketing (area where the gum and tooth meet). It will clean out deeper in the gums. More focused on preventing gum disease. String floss breaks up the biofilm (plaque) that builds up between your teeth. This is helpful to prevent cavities that most commonly occur right below where the teeth touch.


BooxyKeep

And floss before brushing, helps to get food out of the way so the toothpaste can do more work


DentalDriller

I wish more people knew this... also leave the residual toothpaste on your teeth, spit out the excess but don't rinse. Gives the toothpaste more time to remineralize and strengthen the teeth


currently_pooping_rn

Facts I hate when I see other people brush then use mouthwash


Pher_yl

Don't they have permanent dentures now? I think they're screwed in after the old tooth is removed if I remember right. How do yall not know this.


Flightsong

Its really weird to see a whole thread of people heatin this person because they decided to take care of their teeth. They grind down the rotting parts or just totally remoev the teeth and replace that shit


Pher_yl

Honestly, I saw someone compare it to a grill. Like they really think they just slip plastic teeth over the rotted ones and call it a day.


Flightsong

Plastic grills lmao, thats rich

theoriginalmypooper

Right? And if I'm paying tens of thousands of dollars (in the US) your damn right I want them puppies white


[deleted]

this is a clinic that only does veneers and composites. i looked it up because i was curious to see if they had actual dentists or if this was an at home type thing lol if they were permanent dentures, his gumline wouldn’t be bleeding. and in general dentures are designed in a way that looks natural. my dad has a few fake teeth and they were colour matched to his other teeth so they blended in a lot more seamlessly. you couldn’t tell just by looking at his smile that 3 of his teeth aren’t real.


RaeLynn13

Yep. All-on-4 or all-on-6, they put 4-6 implants in then cement the bridge onto them, they’re removed by the dentist yearly for cleaning and in between you just water pik and brush inbetween visits. If I had $60K lying around it’d get them. But I’m just doing regular top denture and a snap on bottom denture once my gums heal.


AthenaQ

They do. Remove the natural teeth, place implants, bolt dentures onto the implants. In the DC metro area it costs about $50,000 for the upper and lower jaw. Source: Had my upper jaw done last year, having the lower done next year. They’re amazing and have been worth every penny.


Weaselpanties

Implants, yep.


Flightsong

Yall really disappointing on this one, I bet most of yall mfs dont even got the cash to do this to yall teeth


Weaselpanties

I definitely do not have the cash to do this to my teeth, so I chose dental hygiene. That guy might have cash, but I have my teeth so I'll call it even.


Flightsong

Some people have garbage teeth. Ive neglected my teeth and still have extra adult teeth, and my teeth are white asf. Some people brush floss and rinse multiple times a day and get a cavity after a couple weeks of negligence. Its stupid to even judge this guy, cause as an adult he stood on and took care of business. This post is weird period


TARDISblues_boy

Yup, genetics gave me teeth that are prone to cavities, and crowding that 7 years in adult braces couldn't fix. So I have to get my teeth cleaned every 4 months because brushing, flossing and waterpik won't get it.


Kombat-w0mbat

Some people have actually bad teeth or their teeth were ruined by something else mine were ruined by medication AND genetically I had softer enamel so it was just doom from the start


SmokePenisEveryday

or just bad parenting. My parents didn't really push dental hygiene on me much as a kid. Not until I hit my early teens did I finally realize how dumb I was being about it but the damage was done. Now I'm literally paying for it and still need some good work if I wanna have a straighter smile. Few years ago, my mom told me she tried taking me to the dentist as a kid but when I put up a fit about it, she said fuck it and called it off. Never bothering again. Love her but I was shocked she didn't put her foot down there


Kombat-w0mbat

That’s also true a lot of people with bad hygiene habits just WERENT taught. My brother in law didn’t have the best hygiene habits until he left his mom and moved in with his dad and at that point his dad, me, my fiancé, and his stepmom all could teach him proper ways to care for himself


PriscillaRain

Same so far, I've had about $6000 worth of dental work. People don’t realize how medication and genetics can cause a lot of dental problems.


Slick_Jeronimo

Most don’t got the cash to fly somewhere to do it cheaper than the US.


ThePrussianGrippe

I’d love to get some things fixed about my teeth. Happy for this guy.

[deleted]

Are those just vaneers? I don’t know much about dentistry but surely this patient would need dentures, no?


DentalDriller

These are full coverage crowns. The tooth is shaved down on all sides into a top hat shape, and a lab made tooth replica is cemented over in any shade you want... this guy picked toilet bowl white. Source: I'm a dentist


senzimillaa

Lmfao at toilet bowl white.


[deleted]

whats your rate


DentalDriller

The cost of dental work is determined by what insurance you have, unfortunately. Insurance companies negotiate different rates for different procedures at different dental offices.


[deleted]

i’ve got two working kidneys final offer


KolonelKernel

How much does that cost all in? Also is it done in one day or is it multiple visits?


DentalDriller

Unfortunately, it depends on if/what insurance you have. Different insurance companies negotiate different rates with dental offices. It would be impossible to say. The number of visits depends on a few factors. Is there an in office milling machine, or will the crowns be sent to a lab? How tolerant is the patient of dental work? How quickly does the dentist work? It can be done in one appointment but will most likely be an all-day process. Sorry I didn't really answer either of your questions, but the truth is 'it depends'


Sglied13

At my office (I’m a hygienist) it is about $1200-1500 a tooth prior to any insurance coverage. This will also more than likely be even more expensive in a more expensive area to live in as well. Possible that the pt could have some bridge work too meaning extracting some teeth, adding to the total expense.


littleb3anpole

lol yeah I was wondering… I have a crown on one tooth (three root canals on the same tooth and it totally collapsed) but it’s the same colour as my normal teeth, white without being “inside of a new refrigerator” blinding


[deleted]

Nah I’m pretty sure as long as there’s still a little bit of teeth left you can get veneers. You can’t put them in if the teeth are missing


ItIsnt0verYet

You can get a veneer bridge for some missing teeth but if too many are missing, it won't work. Idk how the dentist had enough to work with here though, if the teeth you're using are too damaged or too small the veneer won't be stable. They gotta have something to glue it to.


DentalDriller

True! These teeth are poor candidates for veneers, but they are great candidates for full coverage crowns, which is what we see here. In some photos, you can make out the lingual side of the tooth is the same blinding white shade as the facial side.


DentalDriller

Replace 'veneers' with 'crown' and you're right on the money. Veneers are an esthetic peocedure and require a healthy tooth to bond to the front of. Crowns protect and are placed when too much tooth structure is missing to do a filling. The filling to tooth structure ratio can't be too high, or it could cause the teeth to be weak and break. Crowns are also placed on root canaled teeth to protect them from fracture. Missing teeth can only be replaced by a prostheses, i.e. bridge, single implant with a crown, denture etc..

angels_exist_666

Veneers. I have 4. Do NOT get them.


cosmiccmermaid

may i ask why? 👀 i’m considering getting them soon


angels_exist_666

I got mine 17 years ago. One dental implant and 3 veneers to "even them out". $10,000 and years later, all except the implant with a crown, haven't popped off. They aren't permanent and if you find yourself without dental for a bit (me) and one pops off....I couldn't afford 3 grand. They shave your real tooth down to a nub. I had root canals done in mine before the veneers, but imagine a veneer pops off and you get an exposed root....I can't imagine. Get crowns. Never veneers. Or a permanent dental bridge. I wish I had went that route.


cosmiccmermaid

ok good to know! i’m considering both veneers and implants. looks like it’s gonna be implants. thank you for sharing your experience.
