			Don’t Grit Your Teeth To ThisAssisted Living, Golden Years, Sweden | Healthy | October 18, 2019
 (I am helping an old lady getting ready for bed one evening at the nursing home. A part of that includes assisting her with brushing her teeth. Some old people have dentures, and I can’t remember whether this lady has or not.)
 
 Me: “Do you have your own teeth?”
 
 Resident: “Yes, I do.”
 
 Me: “Okay, then, here’s your toothbrush.”
 
 (The lady then pops out her dentures.)
 
 Me: “I thought you had your own teeth?”
 
 Resident: “I do. I bought and paid for them myself.
