Common pre war. My mum told me a tale of one family paying for having all one daughters teeth extracted as a wedding present to her.When my Mam was pregnant with me, one of my Aunts (married to my Dad's much older brother) told her that she should get herself to the dentist, get all of her teeth out and get some dentures made as it would be free because of the pregnancy. She'd had it done when she was pregnant with her first child.
My mam looked at her as if she was daft, but apparently it was fairly common at the time of my Aunt's first pregnancy.
My Mam is approaching her 80th birthday and still has all of her own teeth.

Old ones are the best ones.I used to know a lass who only had one tooth, she was called Juanita.
Could you sing before you decided to have the new dentures?I'm getting my teeth tomorrow...I've only tried the wax ones and I couldn't talk, so wanted to know how long it takes to talk properly,
because not only do I have to speak properly by Tuesday, I also have to be able to sing by Monday.
I'll take a mean average of estimates.
Yes, but the accuracy is now stunning...I couldn't sing a bum note if I tried. Me and the ex sang all the way home, it sounded aceCould you sing before you decided to have the new dentures?
Excellent. A sort of Luther Vandross moment.Yes, but the accuracy is now stunning...I couldn't sing a bum note if I tried. Me and the ex sang all the way home, it sounded ace![]()
Thank you...it's like having a youth injectionExcellent. A sort of Luther Vandross moment.
Edit: except that he's dead of course !
You may need your ears looking at as well mate.Yes, but the accuracy is now stunning...I couldn't sing a bum note if I tried. Me and the ex sang all the way home, it sounded ace![]()
GotchaYou may need your ears looking at as well mate.
Although I'm 76 the bone hasn't deteriorated and I was told early doors that they would be very secure. I haven't used adhesive, they just fit wonderfully...I'm very lucky.My mother had all her teeth out back in the 1960s and never seemed to have much trouble. However, from age 85 up until her death at 90, she had all sorts of problems. Her face and jaw was shrinking so her teeth didn't fit. When she got replacements she didn't have the patience to let them bed in. She kept insisting on getting even more replacements which wasn't cheap. She was on the dementia scale so trying to get her to see sense was futile. The dentist said the major problem was if she'd had just one natural tooth that could be used as an anchor. However with none they couldn't be anchored. She then insisted she wanted implants, but the dentist said the work would be very expensive, could cause major trauma and potentially kill her. It was quite a stressful experience.
Great news shipmate - for both your hearing and your teeth. It used to turn my guts over watching my mother using that fixodent - yuk.GotchaHad a hearing test yesterday...100%

I'll still have the glass on the bedside table...I'll position them in a nice smiley pose though.Great news shipmate - for both your hearing and your teeth. It used to turn my guts over watching my mother using that fixodent - yuk.

Luther was famously (or maybe not so famously) pitch perfect and never missed a note whenever he sang. He did actually know this and would joke on stage about how he thought he might miss a note, but he never did.Excellent. A sort of Luther Vandross moment.

His accuracy was what put me off his voice. I do piano tuning, many singers can do this...in the middle of my range I sing pitch perfect, but if I go lower I flatten the notes accordingly, and if higher I gradually sharpen the notes. Celine Dion and Steve Perry are fine exponents of this craft...it gets to the soul and is often the difference between a singer and a performer.Luther was famously (or maybe not so famously) pitch perfect and never missed a note whenever he sang.
