i really do

hey people who don’t like reading about teeth this is all about teeth, shed teeth, but non-traumatically shed teeth at least. Sorry! I do not intend this but this is apparently who I am as a person!

Anyway, snoutbeetle, it won’t let me tag you, but I wanted to ask what agnesia is because I couldn’t find anything about it!

My tooth had to be extracted because it was ankylosed https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tooth_ankylosis, which was interesting for me to finally read up on just now. Funny though because most of that is discussing how it would impact the secondary tooth, when in my case part of the problem likely was that there was no secondary tooth at that location. I’m missing four molars apparently, but like, I can’t easily identify which of my supposed-to-be-deciduous teeth are still there, and I can’t imagine having more teeth in my mouth? Anyway RIP to all y’all who had to get your wisdom teeth out but I’m different. (Thought I bet your collection of wisdom teeth would make a bomb-ass necklace, exrayspex https://tmblr.co/mruY9DVFXYfa_5PRq1biDHQ.)

MM said when she had her wisdom teeth extracted she kept them initially, and her husband was like “why?” so she threw them out, and then shortly after that her dad was like “oh hey kid, I saved all your baby teeth, do you want them?” and handed her this bag of teeth, and she was like what, and then she was like aww if only I’d saved my wisdom teeth! and then she was like no the set’s incomplete, so she discarded her baby teeth too. but. WOW, MM’s dad, I don’t know why I’m surprised you did that though, having known you this long.

I tried to convince my sister to save Farmkid’s teeth but she is not that type of person and I believe has declined to do so.
