Little known fact. Hockey players start out able to read. The longer they play the sport their abilities just degrade.

If they don’t go the same way as implants

I have a tooth that simply decided to check out (I think they called it internal resorption)

My insurance only partly covered a bridge (a fake tooth glued to the others on each side) and said an implant was only for "aesthetics" and so wasn’t covered. So, according to them, the thing that looks like a real tooth, acts like a real tooth, get taken care of like a real tooth… the real "set it and forget it" solution….. was just for show!

I could totally see them argue that regrowing a tooth is just a luxury….. 🤦‍♂️

Insurance company CEOs' limbs should be considered "aesthetics".

Dental insurance is a scam

How much is it without insurance?

[–] minorkeys@sh.itjust.works 6 points 8 hours ago

Do root canals or any other dentistry prevent this from working?

[–] hperrin@lemmy.ca 13 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

I already had supernumerary teeth, so if I took this, I feel like I’d be a super hero. A bad one, but one nonetheless.

[–] ouRKaoS@lemmy.today 10 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

And they call him... Overbite!™

Finally. I'm very much looking forward to this

[–] ApathyTree@lemmy.dbzer0.com 28 points 18 hours ago (2 children)

Same. I’m down to have all my teeth removed and let new ones grow in, to repair the gum-line corrosion from my early childhood that leaves me highly susceptible to cavities. I have more fillings than teeth at this point.

[–] WorldsDumbestMan@lemmy.today 5 points 10 hours ago (2 children)

I would rather do a hollywood smile for all my teeth, just replace all that weak, natural mineral.

Replace it with glorious artificial matter! The flesh is weak, And so are it's products!

Interesting, but the article also feels llm-generated.

[–] kieron115@startrek.website 2 points 53 minutes ago

Definitely LLM... the "author" has 1624 posts since December 10, 2024. And all of the early ones are those stupid SEO-optimized "how to fix x" posts. (including one that's literally about how to fix X/twitter lol).

Pretty sure the photo would be. Teeth grow inside the gums....

Some pictures are meant to be demonstrative and intentionally inaccurate for said demonstration.

My assumption was that's what they were going for.

I like how someone who is making fun of another's literacy, did so with poor grammar.

[–] dream_weasel@sh.itjust.works 8 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

You don't need that comma, bro.

[–] tomenzgg@midwest.social 9 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

What I've noticed is that most poor comma placement is because people forgot the leading one; "I like how someone , who is making fun of another’s literacy, did so with poor grammar."

It's astoundingly common, including (especially) amongst publications.

[–] dream_weasel@sh.itjust.works 2 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

I'm not sure I buy that. It's not exactly a non-restrictive phrase in this case because the sentence "I like how someone did so with poor grammar." does not seem like the original intent. You can shoehorn that argument I suppose, but it certainly just looks more like an errant comma.

If I were to guess, I think OP thought they had an adverbial phrase (I think that's the right term) that needed to be set apart with a comma, but, in actual fact, it both was not and did not.

No fucking chance. I don't want teeth growing in my asshole or somewhere. You guys can be the guinea pigs first.

[–] Grabthar@lemmy.world 20 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

You sure? Kinda solves the whole corn problem.

[–] JackFrostNCola@aussie.zone 2 points 7 hours ago

The corn problem is already solved by chewing the corn with the teeth you have - in your mouth.

[–] teyrnon@sh.itjust.works 6 points 14 hours ago

Oh come now, you will only have teeth growing out of your asshole if you have a certain type of tumor on your asshole, that does sometimes grow teeth and I think hair, it's weird.

Does that mean we can now get multiple rows like a shark?

[–] Hayduke@lemmy.world 35 points 18 hours ago

See, that’s the sort of forward-thinking that I want from everyone.

[–] SparroHawc@piefed.world 8 points 16 hours ago

You kid, but the reason we can regrow teeth like this is that we actually have the cells for a third row of teeth. Once these ones are gone, though, you don't have any more back-ups.

One more step towards humans becoming sharks, let's go for cancer resistance next

[–] Speiser0@feddit.org 5 points 12 hours ago

Humans can become crab. Or how we say it in german: Menschen können Krebs bekommen.
