As many of you know, back in February I had a full mouth teeth extraction done, too many hard drugs and lack of dental care in my younger years had them rotting and breaking in my mouth, so, had 26 teeth pulled at once. The last 2.5 months have been mentally taxing to say the least, you dont realize before hand just what a difference it is going from teeth to no teeth, even crooked broken bojangled teeth like I had, then to just gums, its been a time i tell ya! But, light at the end of tunnel has arrived! I got my prototype dentures today. I wear these for a week and report back any issues, rubbing, tight spots, sizing ect. Color will be decided in 1 week as well,currently teeth and gums of dentures exact same color, the final ones with have proper coloring and such So here is pics of my smile before extraction, after extraction and with prototype dentures in...what a difference!!! also, any members with full dentures who have any advice on adjusting/eating/talking please feel free to drop your advice here15 points

It is with a very heavy heart to say, that early this morning, my wife and I lost our boy Baxter, he would have been 13 in September. His health took a turn last night and was up with him 2-3am this morning but sadly did not make it through the night. He was a rescue, so we'll cherish the times and years he was with us and in knowing that he had good home and a loving family. He is and will be deeply missed, he was quite the character. Rest in Peace buddy.11 points

Been a gamer since i was young but the people and the adventures kept me logging back in. Your first game you played?

Mostly DayZ Standalone, myself and a few XI members host 3 servers. I quit gaming for a few years except for every Sunday i would play cod4 with XI for a few hours.

I officially joined recently in late 2022 maybe ? im not sure i have been part of this group so long im not sure when i actually joined. What do you get from being in this clan? I have made some good friends with alot of XI members and we continue to stay in touch when possible. What is your favorite hobby? modding has always been the root hobby i always come back to. I have alot going on with a small hobby farm but i am always thinking of modding servers or games. What is your favorite travel destination? My back yard, i have some acreage and a pool. everything i need is at home so why travel. I'm just not drawn to far off lands. Are you married? Yes Do you have children?

Hey guys just want to say that I’ve finished a goal of mine of getting a degree, even though its just an associates, its still the first in my family so its something I am proud of. I also landed a job in hopefully my career as a Jailer which I hope to eventually move up to be a deputy for the sheriff’s department.5 points

Looks absolutely fabulous. I don't have dentures but I do take care of them daily and deal with them for my residents. Feel free to message me if you ever have questions. I wouldn't brush them with regular tooth paste. That makes scratches on the dentures and causes bacteria. Soft brushes are better. Keep your gums clean as well.3 points
