Japanese Dentistry

An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. Something my wife learned the hard way many years ago growing up in Japan. The dentist there used stainless steel as caps and filling in her mouth. As the years went by those heavy fillings weakened her gums to the point that she lost most of her teeth with ease.

Today the dentist removed her back molar, her last upper tooth out of the many that were capped or filled using stainless steal.
