gross out jewelry!

[John Fenna]

OK - You have been warned!
I do not like fish much.
My wife insists that I eat fish as "It is good for me".
She fed me some fish a while back and a bone stabbed up the side of a tooth and deep in the gum.
This created a "pocket" in which bacteria were prone to breed.
Several times I developed bad infections - which lead to bone loss around the tooth socket.
The tooth became loose and more prone to bacteria penetration.
Another infection came along and the dentist advised that the tooth came out which should remove the pocket, stop infection developing and end my misery...
So today I lost a perfectly good tooth.
I got the dentist to let me retain the tooth (he gave it to me in a "Fairy Envelope" - yup - Pink!)
Just to remind my Wife how good fish eating is I have drilled the tooth, made a cord and created my own, very much made by me, pendant...
So - with total Gross-Out potential - my DIY Tooth Pendant!



Anything that fornicates and defecates in the same place it eats and sleeps cannot be a healthy food!
MODS are free to move or delete this if they think it is too gross....

That is brilliant! But fish is good for you, if you take the bones out first though.

Bloody hell John.. must have been some size fish bone to cause that. What fish was it.. Big cod have canny size bones as thick as knitting needles.

If people ask what tooth is it.. tell em it a sharks tooth

Stay classy John.

Fish is one of my favourite foods. Sorry about the tooth though

And there was me thinking this was going to be a discussion about Copralites.

I'm not going to say a word about my reaction to your tale of woe now that I've picked myself up from the floor where I'd been rolling around after reading this

My wife read it and her response was 'what's he complaining about, he's not lost it truly as it's still around his neck!' That's women's logic for you

Ok... so you won't want the ponassed salmon that I was planning to do this year at Dingly Dell

Mr Fenna, you are the undisputed King of this forum!

 

[RonW]

Hardcore!!
But this is the kind of jewelry I like; not fancy or shiny, but with a good story!

 

[Robson Valley]

Ugh. Dreadful way to have to lose a tooth. I was hoping that you'd have some innovative design suggestions for deer bean jewellry.

I wear a boar tooth and my wife hates it so next time she comments I'll show her this thread... I'm sure it'll get me off the hook !..nice one.

 

[Samon]

Made something similar a few years back.



Two of mine and one from an old dead dog I found. (Always carry pliers my fellow womblers!)

Cool. Mr Fenna, that tooth of yours has a very short root! Unusually short!

 

[Countryman]

I wear a bear tooth.

Each to their own.

The tooth is about 3cm long - the root of which is about 2cm the hole is about half way up the root. I think this is about the normal proportions...

I'm having a couple of teeth out next week because I'm having a brace, I might steal your idea!

Go for it!
I can recommend having a dentist - rather than a bar brawler or martial artiste - remove your chewing gear.
As an aside...
Having experienced both, the dentists' way is not only less painful, less bloody and less likely to make you look a prat ... and if your dentist is like mine, the conversation is more full of jokes than swearing AND you get to carry your tooth home in one piece in a nice pink "Fairy Bag" rather than in your bare hand... and you escape with your dignity intact!
