    I got my front teeth knocked through my upper lip in 2016 and ended up getting paid a handsome sum precisely because it wasn’t my fault, and I got myself two implants, a bridge, and a crown thankfully on the NHS. I was eating those little twiglet pretzel things one day and I suddenly felt an extra object in my mouth; it was the bridge. I couldn’t go to the dentist with the pandemic on and all that so I ended up getting used to it and not getting it seen to until recently. Lots of people told me it was charming to have a gap, some people said they’d get it fixed if they were me, and I managed to conduct a few relationships. Lucky boy, it seems.

      I didn’t get so lucky lol, during the pandemic I lost 20 teeth for a reason I won’t get into. But I essentially had to walk around with no teeth, no denture, nothing for about 3 months while everything healed.
