You may have noticed the complete and utter lack of teeth in most of the visible part
of my upper mouth. This was because I had four teeth pulled at an early age -
they had simply started to rot, so they had to go. It didn't even hurt when they were pulled, and
I have been told the dentist was the most nervous of the two of us. Mind you, he
tricked me into believing they wouldn't be pulled until later, and before I knew of it, I had lost them.
So... there I was, smiling like Count Dracula.
