Hi! I'm Harley. No matter how good your oral hygiene is, there will probably come a time in your life when you need dentures or cosmetic dentistry. For me, it was earlier than most. In elementary school (unfortunately after I had lost my baby teeth), I was playing tetherball during recess. My hand-eye coordination has always been horrible, and in this case it caused me to miss the ball--which then proceeded to hit me in the head at full speed. It knocked me over, and when my chin hit the pavement, I lost three front teeth. Needless to say, I have since had teeth implants and a really good relationship with my dentist. So I started this site to show that things like the dentist, dentures, and implants are all normal things! I hope you enjoy learning about them.
