Smile!

Ok I don't remember if I ever explained why I needed to have all my teeth pulled or not at such a young age. It isn't because I didn't take care of my teeth I did very much so. It is because of three reasons really.
The first one being I had an inherited dental disease which was eating my teeth up from the inside out. Basically that means by the time we noticed the cavity and were trying to fix it my tooth was pretty much hollow. Even if I got them filled and did everything right with my dental care it wouldn't stop the decay.

The second was from when I got very very sick with the pneumonia the fact that I was vomiting (I hate to put it this way but don't know of another way to do it) a minimum of 4 times a day that I basically brushed the enamel off my teeth because I had to brush them after each time. In case you don't know too much brushing of your teeth is almost as bad as not brushing at all. So follow what the dentists say of how many times to do it.

The last is the HIV medications they put me on after I got so sick. I don't remember what they were at this time, but they ate my teeth up too.

So as my dentist put it was screwed any way I looked at it. So we pulled them and I got ready for dentures. So without further ado here is a pic of me with my dentures in (which I just received today) and that's my other half on my shoulder there he was so happy for me.
