Well, this is my awkward attempt at trying to get some much-needed teeth.

I'll also take this opportunity to point out just how important teeth are to one's overall health, both physically and mentally. Every time I eat starts with a near-death panic as the first couple/few bites almost always get jammed up in my throat.

For certain, anyone you see in your travels with no teeth wrestles with this experience on a daily basis, not to even mention the nutrients they are missing, as chewing is the first and every bit as important stage of digestion as any other.

To be clear, I'm pretty tough. I'll be fine either way. But others aren't so lucky as to have people who care about them as I. I am truly more blessed in this way than I likely deserve.

I'd appreciate any help to finally get this taken care of, but independent of me, please help in whatever way you are able the many, many others far less fortunate as I.
