TY Krupa much appreciated....

Shasta I make up words all the time....

My mother told me to find a woman with good teeth.
First-Good genetic background, less likely kids will have bad teeth and dental-orthodontics is expensive.
Second-Indicates she takes care of her health.
Pregnancy is less likely a cause of teeth going bad, prenatal care is is cheap and available though country health depts.
And if her teeth did go bad from pregnancy, see first statement

what if the dude had all of someone else's teeth? or if he was like a bully and had all the teeth from people he knocked them out of over the years, but still had a full set? do the teeth have to actually be in their mouth? what about the baby teeth lost over the years? the ones the tooth fairy stole....does the person still have to have those? do fake teeth count? does the person have some way of testing the authenticity of the teeth in your mouth? what about chipped teeth or cavities? do missing parts of teeth count against having all your teeth?

There are just some things that totally TURN people off physically. I can understand if toothlessness is one of them. Has anyone ever kissed someone with 'dental issues"? I have, and its not pleasant,,wouldnt do it again... EVER.

Set your sights farther North than usual then. I hear the further south you go the fewer teeth you'll have. Now quit picking on the toothless wonders, people. Use floss instead. I think it's a good plan to have as many spare body parts in a tightly sealed jar in your bathroom. That way you won't swallow any of them in the middle of the night.

I would pass. It is one of the first things I notice when I meet someone. Kissing is important and if you got f@cked up teeth, then I ain't going no where near that. I'm shallow like that.

Of course, some men wouldn't mind a woman with no teeth. It's better for oral sex.

I'll agree with some of you,a person with bad teeth looks bad and not many would want to kiss them and it cost a lot of money to go to a dentist and I don't know any that work for free,but if they can't afford to fix the teeth that need fixing,maybe get them pulled one at a time then get parcials?pardon my spelling,but even that's hard to do when you have a family to support and need to spend your money on your kids for food and clothes,I also lost some teeth to accidents and not taking care of them when I was younger and now I wish I would have taken better care of them.So now I brush the ones I have left and keep the others in a cleaning solution by the bed untill I need them!LOL

I don't think it's the outfit,there must not be any single guys where you live or they're all blind.

I think what this person might mean is for her,Teeth are very important, only if it's just in your smile.
I understand some people have dental issues,and have other responsibilites financially. I know there are offices that do take payment for dental work.(thats how my sister pays.)

Also decay of teeth, or gum issues could be other health issues.
And putting it bluntly their mouth stinks, if you think a smokers breath is bad,try teeth rot.

As A few have stated store bought, is better then unhealthy teeth.

You may have to give some things up,short term to pay for the dental help sure.Like down size cable bill,less eating fast food,less drinking,just ideas only...only you know what you can give up short term.

Some people don't care for men or woman that for from perfect shape.
I tend to agree with the woman thats looking for a healthy smile, that i'm not afraid to swap spit with.

Awwww ya a sweetheart, but I live in Texas plenty of single guys, actually could be due to I need to get out more.


But actually as far as the question it all has to do with appearance. We all tend to go with what is pleasing to our eyes when we look at another. We want someone that appears to take care of them self as far as hygiene goes. First thought that comes to mind for some is if that person is missing a few teeth that is very noticeable but yet they smoke. Why would they not put down the cigs save their money and get their teeth fix if it is due to the money why they have not fixed them yet.

If they have dentures ect I see no problem with that at all. I''m sure those that say things of the sort. At one point or the other has meet someone that is missing one or more of their front teeth but make no effort in getting it replaced or fixed.

A smile paints a never ending picture....

No,it's deffinitley the outfit......


I would NEVER date a snaggle tooth

I would rather date a man who is missing some teeth than a man who smokes and drinks all the time,or even often.

I wouldnt date any of the above. Oral Hygiene is pretty important to me. Especially at this point in life, at 40 years old, I dont find any excuse for peers to not have taken care of their teeth or their dental issues.

A quick story...on teeth.
Met a man at a casino, that was meeting place.During his phone conversations,he always talked on how he was helping his adult kids out with cars repairs,rent etc.Also talked about how he has people over all the time for BBQ's.etc etc.
Met in the lounge for a drink, had this very long mustache over his lip.
He never smiled, and talk with his hand over his mouth.So I just came out and asked why.And yes he said his teeth, they were nubs only with decay.Can't say I wasn't shocked.We did talk about his dental issues.When he said they were that way for over 12 years, and he didn't care.I just said i'm sorry you don't.Your a very nice person, and truly helpful to your family and friends....but what about you?....said my good bye and left.

When you don't care about yourself,are you truly caring for others is what I thought.Or buying a placement in their lives.

Here's one for you. I'm pretty sure he doesn't smoke and is single. I don't know about the drinking.

I understand what you are saying.But men my age could have a number of reasons to be missing teeth.I feel that as long as their breath if fresh and they take care of what they have...like other posts have stated,they can buy teeth at the dentist.As long as they are otherwise healthy,great.

Very funny
Aman can replace teeth,but his lungs and liver are a whole different story,let alone his mental health.
