Pulling teeth

[Malthus]

My wife is a medical oddity in that many of her baby teeth never fell out and there was no "adult" teeth underneath them.

You mean baby-baby teeth or childhood teeth?
The former would really be weird...
I think I have a bit of the latter though, or at least I've never lost some of my teeth

People usually have only the two sets, I thought. What's the difference between "baby teeth" and "early childhood teeth"?

Don't babies have some that they lose at a really early age?
Could be totally misremembering here.

WTF.

People aren't sharks. They have bebe teeth and man teeth. They don't have seven rows of razor sharp fangs, despite what some of you child haters here would like to believe.

I saw Carl's recent pics, I don't believe you.

Was he able to eat regular food from the getgo?

My mother painfully pulled out my older siblings' baby teeth for them, but she let me do my own. My half-assed scaredy-cat efforts left me with a deformed smile that led to expensive braces.

What teeth-pulling methods did you use/suffer?

Seriously, this sort of thing should be reserved for professionals.  Every single one of my baby teeth was pulled that way.  The only situation where pulling out your own teeth is acceptable is when you are cast away alone on an island somewhere in the Pacific.

Leave it to Mono to fall victim to the racket known as juvenile dentistry.  A lifetime of scrimping and saving, wiped out before it even began.

Who cares.  My parents paid for all that

It means that your savings karma is already shot.  You might as well buy your wife a Rolls-Royce.

I would imagine not. His digestive system would be the same as any other infant.
