is that eating leaves some food in the holes left by the extractions.

The slightest bit (especially toast or meat) of food in the remaining holes ferments/rots, whatever and cannot be removed until my body decomposes it.

I did not have the same problem with the upper teeth years ago - I suspect gravity has something to do with it.

will be in a better frame of mind soon, but heaven help the person that gets "in my face" in the near future.

My patience and tolerance are at a new low.

And that ain't me . .

(sigh)
