I had dental surgery like, a month ago. Posted about it here. Instead of a front tooth I’ve got a metal (titanium I think?) cap sticking out of my gums. The tip of my tongue constantly touches it and I’m really over it.
The weirdest part is every time I brush my teeth it feels cold for like an hour. The button has a female drive to it (I think it’s Torx?) and it holds onto toothpaste.
At least I’m off my no biting things diet. There’s stuff that’s still impractical to eat but I can have sandwiches now.
I’m getting dental implants, no button. Not sure if it’s because you have a different situation. For me, after the titanium screw was put in, the gums got stitched over it to heal for 6 months.
These luxury bones are so much maintenance
