    Bone Graft 3 days before memorial day.
    WOOOOHOOOOOOOO.
    I honestly think that would suck no matter Memorial Day or not.  :still cringing:  Um, why did you need a bone graft?  

    I have one tooth that has been crowned 3 times. (once is supposed to be a lifelong procedure)
    A week and a half ago it just fell out.
    I am so sorry. How are you doing now? Any limitations? 

    Ate yogurt for three days, then ate everything for the weekend (carefully)
    Get stitches out in a couple weeks.
    The worst of times..they don't phase me,
    even if I look and act really crazy.

    Just had the implant put into the bone graft.
    They put safety glasses on my face and said they didn't get the grafted bone far up enough.
    Proceeded to take a mallet to my face for several minutes.
    Yes it cost extra.

    I just cringed . . . a lot. Here's to hoping your face feels far better that I think it does.

    I remember a doc wanted to do that to me when I broke my nose.

    No thanks. I'd rather be ugly.

    This happened twice actually. Unfortunately, the second didn't break didn't fix the first break.

    @Malroth , I'm glad you'll stay pretty. Even if you're just crying pretty right now.

    That was me not too long ago! Everything was completed in February and all is well. 

    I know this part sucks, Mal. Just a bit more patience!

    And cry ugly, dammit; pretty crying is for pussies =)

    Thanks Dead-Dan-ist.
    Overall, this doesn't hurt at much as the removal did.
    I am going to have one good looking bionic tooth.....The rest of me........
    I do cry quite a bit but not usually for physical pain....so I'm not sure if that's uglier or I'm pussier or what? ;)

    I've been doing the invisalign thing since October last year. Have until April 2021. And then: have 2 crowns removed, bone graft put in, heal some and then 2 implants (2 front teeth were knocked out when I got hit my a car 25 years ago and the crowns need replaced).

    My friends wife mockingly asked if I was going to get them whitened too. Uhh...invisalign, multiple implants....fuck yeah I'm going to get them whitened and I'm going to smile unnecessarily big for no fucking reason when this is all done. =) What a dumb question to have been asked.

    No joke! Only a brighter shade of white. And great call on the stache! Reducing from goatee to a mustache should really accentuate the smile!!! :rofl:
