Lend me your ear....

Because he preferred painting another farm field to eating bread or patatoes, the Dutch painter Vincent Van Gogh lost approximately ten teeth from malnutrition. Of course, he did not spend any money on false teeth (or a false ear...) either.

Until only one generation ago, many elderly people had no teeth at all. The problem with that, is that people without teeth prefer soft foods to meats, grains, fresh fruits etc. Therefore they do not consume enough of the important nutrients and the chance of malnutrition is enormous.

So.... malnutrition leads to tooth loss and tooth loss to malnutrition?

Some people live without premulars and molars (back teeth) for years. They simply chew with their front teeth. The problem with that is that these will quickly wear out.

Fortunately, there is this simple formula:

dental holidays + starry starry nights (in Bulgaria) + our dental implants = the perfect way to replace missing teeth
