My Dad got dentures when I was maybe in my early teens. I remember during my childhood how he would wince during a meal when he ate something too hot, too cold, too chewy, or whatever. When I look back, he must have been in pain most of the time, but we couldn't afford to get his teeth fixed.
After he had them all pulled, he stopped at the store on the way home and bought a half gallon of ice cream. I still remember him sitting there...he'd take a spoonful and put it in his mouth, then go "Ahhhhhhhh" and his smile was so big!
