Wonder why Trump doesn't get implants?

[raccoon]

I mean dental implants.

Some of y'all say he has dentures. Which I find completely believable. But I wonder why with his money and his vanity he doesn't get implants.

I read somewhere that Keith Richards has them.

1. He has an implant.

It's lower.

2. Do you remember his doctor? I don't imagine his dentist would be any better.

4. I don't remember his doctor. Nt

7. "All of his tests were positive."

USUALLY you want a negative result for whatever you're being tested for.
Also said he was the healthiest man to ever become president.

3. People die under anesthesia...hoping.

5. You don't need to go under for an implant

I was freaking out because i needed 2 implants and it was nothing. Lidocaine is all you need and it actually takes about one minute for the dentist to drill for the implant.

12. I had one. Easier than a root canal. n/t

6. His man-boobs are big enough already.

Trump have anything medical done to him? He is afraid of germs, no way he is going to let someone slice his gums open.

To do implants, they have to make an incision in one's gums, down to the jaw bone, so they can drill increasingly large holes to accept the titanium bolts that screwed in using a wrench. It's not a pleasant experience. I had mine done with just Novocaine - they would have to sneak up on him and give him general anesthesia in order to implant the bolts.

8. He is waiting until the procedure is completely painless.

The traumatic memory of agonizing, life-threatening bone spurs still haunts him to this day.

9. he's in extremely poor health. And...

Dental implants are expensive and he doesn't pay his goddamn bills

[milestogo]

10. Its really nobody's business but his.

[pnwmom]

13. His health is everybody's business. If he wasn't wearing dentures, then he does

need to explain why his speech deteriorated the way it did.

11. MY guess: hes afraid of anesthesia.

You’ve got to be out to have someone drill deeply into your bone structure. My guess is he’s never been under anesthesia in his life, fear of loss of control being the key factor here.

[pnwmom]

14. No, you don't. Mine was implanted with just a local. The dentist gave me the option

of general anesthesia, but I've never had that for any dental procedure and it's really unnecessary for an implant.
