I was talking about myself. How could I otherwise?

Ok, jumping in late here...but, I myself have used teeth as a qualifier but always it included dentures! Just can't see myself sharing a meal on a regular basis with someone who gums their food. My late husband had dentures, dentures show you care enough to look your very best!

True.But what if the person has all their teeth,but they are crooked and/or just aren't very nice?

Funny how I still hear this and yet the result is the same:
"What's that there you have? Can I SEE more?" drool dripping from the side of the mouth.

Besides, there is wonderful makeup to hide tat's when needed to be hidden. A lovely evening gown is just not right with exposing tat's on a formal occasion (or at least to me in mine).

Teeth are always a plus, it makes for better chewing and digestion, eh but I have a fairly good sense of humor about such things. As long as a man got dentures, bridges etc. I'm good to go.

Now the pulling of the dentures out as my step dad anywhere at any time...no I could not hang. What was my mother thinking? No wonder I am mental.

I have to agree with that! There is a time and place for everything! Taking out dentures isn't for the general public!
