Hi

Just wanted to tell you that I had a molar taken out 1 and 1/2 years ago. I am 60. There has been no change in the alignment of my teeth, my smile is the exactly the same.

Actually, I was the one who asked my dentist about a false tooth there and she said it was not necessary. When I went to the oral surgeon, he said the same.

It was the 3rd tooth in from the back. The only "complication" I had was getting used to the space there in my mouth. It felt very noticable to me for the first few weeks. Now it is just a part of my mouth.

Wishing you well
