With regard to this tale of allegedly trading free dental work for placement in the New York Observer's weekly "Playground" supplement, all anyone wants to know is: exactly how much dental work could possibly be worth $45,000? (We're thinking the allegedly backroom deal-undoer has either eight gap-toothed children or she's got some really badass grillz.)
Paul Wall will see you now. (Hah! Like anyone remembers Paul Wall!)
I don't know how I know this (honestly!) but I think porcelain daVinci veneers can set you back $2000 per tooth.
A: Titanium Kennedy teeth, with a white ceramic glaze.
Yeah, I have this friend of a friend, we'll call him "Don". He had dental work done by BriteSmile, where they filed down his real teeth and made custom porcelain ones that, in his case, problematically resemble chicklits, and I know he is in the process of suing them for tens of thousands to cover just the cost of replacing them (I am quite sure).
My question is, who ARE THESE PEOPLE that have the confidence of having thousands of dollars in ten years to pay for the upkeep of their teeth? Veneers aren't even permanent!
One implant. Like social security, one of those old people things with which we won't have to concern ourselves.
Ooh, didn\'t read through. Those are major cosmetic guys, so, veneers. (I\'m really back to giggle at GRAFT.)
