About three weeks ago,I broke one of my front teeth and had to have the remainder extracted by my local dentist.
Today,the wound having healed,it was time for an impression to be taken of the gap in order for a new false one to be added to my top plate.This was duly done,and I am now toothless until midday Friday!
It's a good thing that I'm duty cook this week,as I can avoid the crisp and crunchy things that would be painful to eat.
It reminds me of an occasion in Lemgo,when (I believe it was Dick Akem) went round to Mick Holder's quarter to take him out for a beer or five.
Mick,answering the door,apparently said that he couldn't come out,as he had to clean the oven and his wife had taken his false teeth to stop him going out until the job was done!
Happy Days!
