      That makes sense. His teeth look a lot better than they did back in the day, I was wondering why. I mean, does a 50yo man get braces done no matter how much money he has? Would it even work? Probably not.

            And floss, it’s really not that much work for how much better you feel. Think of it as wiping away the tooth pain before it can sink in.

      I immediately recognized it as the same thing my dad did for awhile after he got his. Dentures lower the roof of your mouth a bit, so you have to get used to it and your mouth still tries to fall back on muscle memory for awhile, so you get weird sounding S’s.

      I think it’s this.

        Seems highly unlikely he’d get dentures when implants are a thing now. He’s not so poor that he can’t spend $50k on implants.
