Maybe there was less money in pulling teeth, but then you end up without teeth. Not a good result. The strategy, and I think it's a good one, is to save one's teeth, not remove them.

If you have a tooth pulled, you have to live toothless (no more cost) or replace the tooth with something artificial which costs much more than a root canal.

Hey, since I know this is a busy blog...I started a poll over on The Polling Place about people's first experience seeing Brokeback Mountain. Please go add your thoughts to the thread! Thanks!

There is a guy in my office that can detach his implanted tooth and twirl it with his lips like a chicklet.  :laugh:
