Comment from Joy Graham
This poem is a lot of fun to read :) I'm not a fan of the dentist. Your mention of the high pitched whine made my hair stand on end. I had a cracked tooth removed recently and the thought of them drilling an artificial tooth into my jaw bone scares me stupid. I can't afford it so that keeps me safe for a while.
I haven't seen your work before so came by to check you out. Nice to meet you. congratulations in ranking in the top ten poets. Looking forward to reading more of your work.

Thank you Joy, but that?s just so far this year. Nice to meet you too. This is an older poem from several months ago. I?m happy you liked it. I hate the dentist,, especially at the prospect of dentures. Anyway, I hope you enjoy my poetic expression in the future.

Yep, my friend:
We can look great and feel great at any age but some things about aging will still always be, like the need for dentures. However now a days people are receiving full dentures at a young age. I get the humor though. Great poem and love the photo

Thanks, I had a dread of the dentist when their drills got hot, and the aenesthetic used for extractions. I now have a good dentist who I feel relaxed around. Your reviews are always welcome.

I can relate to this poem so well, except my artist was not as good as my smile should be. Still have time for liners though. lol Glad yours came out all right.
Great penning

It's funny to look at yourself differently after so many years looking one way. But to new people, they don't know any difference. this is the way I look now, it's me that needs to get over it, not the onlookers.

Nicely done poem about your new dentures. Funny thing, we fight all our life to keep our teeth, then in the end we finally have to give in to dentures. Your set-up is beautiful and the rhyming is right on. Cool how you didn't divulge what you were really there for until the end. Blessings, Carol Good luck in the contest.

Comment from Sandra du Plessis
A very well-written poem about the dentist's art. It is not my favorite artist to go to. I still have all my teeth but one that was removed after an absess. The single false tooth is enough for me.

The art of denture making is a skilled job. His 'studio' is the lab where they are made. The dentist is next door drilling someone's teeth..
Thanks so much for reviewing
Comment from Alcreator Litt Dear
This speaks about artwork that is something different in forms and structure, funny to be seen, something in part that appears awful and a bit humorous to see and enjoy, I liked.

Comment from Irish Rain
Ha ha...what fun, right?? I am quite used to mine, but it took a while. The bottoms were harder to adjust to than the tops. But now....no more dentist!! Yay!!! Great entry, blessings...

Thanks Irish, it's something I'm dreading! Thanks for the complimentary review

Best decision I ever made in my life!! One suggestion...I don't know what type of denture cream....that sticky stuff that holds them in....that they have where you are, but DON'T use 'Fixodent.' I did, and got zinc poisoning. I use 'Poligrip'...it works wonderfully.

Useful advice thank you
Comment from Gert sherwood
Hello author
This is good of how you made me laugh while you were telling us your day at the desist (in rhyme) when i read
I was open-mouthed, his creation done
as I looked into the mirror I cried in awe
my toothless mouth, puckered, no fun
now had a set of dentures in my jaw!
Hope you could smile
I know you made me do so
Gert

Comment from nbonner
I really enjoyed the read. The way the poem flowed and it caught me by surprise as I thought it was about actual art instead of a dentist. It was a nice surprise to see something different. Thank you for sharing and best wishes in the contest, N.B

Comment from Teri7
This is a very cute poem you have penned for the Dentist contest. You used very good ABAB rhyme. You used such great descriptive wording and very pretty appropriate imagery with the art work. Best wishes in the contest. Teri
