Hey, I got some well off grandparents. Even if they tell me to **** off I can still ask. Won't make my teeth any worse. At least it's a couple molars that aren't doing so well I guess. If it was an incisor I'd cry like a bitch.

Plus, you probably got a couple fillings along the way and if you need a crown goodbye to another $1000.
Disgusting tbh.

I feel sorry for Americans when I read stuff like that.

I still say it's better not to let them start poking around in there unless you can see it through but that's just me.

Yeah seriously it's the fact that most people who aren't at least middle class ever have to go in for dental exams until they tie their tooth to a doorknob and still don't go to the dentist that it's not a thing that people care about. I guess the middle class simply don't think that a simple missing tooth can be a significant divider between class. Or they enjoy it. Not sure when I stopped thinking of myself as middle class tbh but apparently it happened when I wasn't paying attention.

You're totally correct that bad teeth means no job.

I mean it's not even necessarily a lower vs. middle class thing. I'm sure the lower class looks at lower class people with missing teeth and puts them in a class even lower than them. I know I do. Missing teeth people are basically the scum of America and will never do anything but flip burgers or fix cars if they're lucky.
