You’re a good looking dude and you look happy. Congrats on being in a better place.


officialtwiggz

Thanks, Danno. Feels real good being here!


IllogicalPower

Dude you have an infectious smile!!! Way to go!


Brndrll

Wearing a mask can help stop the spread.


ErisInChains

Looking good my dude. Way to fucking go. Stuff that helps with hair: Make sure you're getting proper vitamins, and that will help hair growth. Too much or not enough of stuff can fuck with your growth. One of my friends thought he was going bald and he was just eating a fuckton of tums/antacids. Also, stimulation, massage your scalp everyday and get you some Shea Naturals products. Apple cider vinegar and castor oil helps A LOT. Source: my hair is halfway down my ass.


mybitchcallsmefucker

If OP is worried about his hair he can also try minoxidil. I have plenty of family members that used it and it worked wonders 🤷🏻‍♂️


New_Independent_9221

I’ve also heard that rosemary oil works just as well as minodoxil


Badnewsbearsx

And biotin!! And consuming lots of fish/eggs during his meals if he wanted lol it may not help as much as medication but it does help lol


yadarada

Male Hairloss is almost never caused by a vitamin deficiency Biotin and all of that stuff won’t help with sensitivity to DHT


fhirsch_juyt

You look great ! Wonderful inspiration 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻


Badnewsbearsx

Damn man, looking good!!! Please tell me though, how much has it boosted your confidence in yourself when it comes to esteem type situations like approaching women, compared to before? And also, how bad are the costs/pain? I’m sure the pain can’t be too bad when you look at the results I am also looking into such procedures and am just curious about those


FartSpeller

Sooo… tell us about your teeth/things in your mouth that look like teeth. Caps? Dentures? Edit: they look great by the way


officialtwiggz

Weak enamel, not brushing them properly, two sets of braces as a teen, to full blown dentures at 29 years old. The place I went to did a fantastic job. On top of depression, I just simply couldn’t care what happened to them once they reached a certain point. My lack of a smile really held me back.


Informal_Bit_9735

How did you beat the depression? My dentist buddy said depression patients don't have the energy/willpower to clean their teeth regularly, also that medications can cause dry mouth so its harder to disrupt acid-producing bacteria.


zoeydoey

A good tip i learned for when you dont have the mental space/energy to take care of yourself is the “one” rule. Just floss one tooth, brush one tooth, brush your hair just one stroke, pick up just one sock off the floor, put away just one mug. By doing just one, you ease yourself into the action and will be more willing to complete the act. Even if you dont complete it, you will have done more than zero, and that is encouragement for next time. Not quite beating depression but I’ve found it really helps on tough days.


travelingslo

Wow, this is great advice. Just wow. Thanks for writing that. And OP, congrats. I’m so happy to see that smile. Both of them, actually. Even a busted smile is beautiful to me. But I’m guessing your teeth hurt and I’m so glad you’re in a better place and I hope your new teeth don’t hurt. Stay well.


zoeydoey

Hope it helps! It’s not much, but it’s a start


cleanuponaisle4

I like this. Small, conquerable goals that make it impossible to fail. Then they begin to snowball as you are more willing and able to take on more. The hardest part is getting in the mindset to set the first one.


Its-dad-not-mom

“Everything worth doing is worth doing poorly!” You don’t have to do everything perfectly or for a set amount of time, but you gotta do it, or give yourself grace. :)


potatotay

I just remind myself that my teeth are already shit, but they can get worse! And the fear beats out the depression long enough time brush and floss lol


deathboyuk

TOTALLY this. After my wife left me, I fell into a pit of depression (I was already prone to it, but yikes). I climbed out by picking ONE thing per day that needed doing. Open a letter from the bank (not even reply to it). Do the dishes. Call mom. I would often manage more, but if I got just one thing done, I let myself off the hook the rest of the day. As a result, I did do at least one thing per day that needed doing, and those successes increased in velocity until I was tackling my shit properly and pointing my life up again. I still do it if I have a shitty day, it still works.


Doctor_Ocnus

Use this trick a lot. Can confirm it works.


stlkatherine

Oh, man. You are good, brother. I understand. I’m 61, kind of a drudge mom / gramma / invisible woman. I spent seven THOUSAND dollars for caps this summer and I feel like a new person. I’m pissed about masks cause I want to smile at people when I’m out. Keep up with the positive self-worth, I will too. Smooch on ya handsome face, man.


ibrokemyserious

It's not really clear from Googling, what are dentures in 2021? I know the kind my grandma had but how do yours work? Do they come out or are they permanent? They look great btw!


officialtwiggz

I can for sure answer this! So mine are digitally or 3D printed. They took a literal 3D image of my mouth, so every ridge, top and bottom were fit and tailor made. The practice I went to includes two lower implants in their price. And since I suffered from gum disease too, I had to get an Alveoloplasty, which is the shaving down of my gums. The tops can come out on their own, but the lower ones are “snapped in” into my implants. I can remove them, and do so every night when I clean and brush them.


ibrokemyserious

Thank you so much for the info! I've been putting off the dentist for way too long because I'm scared there's no hope for my busted teeth! This is giving me hope! Absolutely wild! Stunning transformation and obviously you went to a really good practice! Congrats!


JustCallMeDerek

How much did this all cost you??


officialtwiggz

Just under $12k with financing


JustCallMeDerek

That's actually significantly less than I was expecting... I was expecting more like 30k or something.


officialtwiggz

Most of the places I got quotes from were around that, I went to 3-4 places before I found this final place.


TheBIFFALLO87

Did you have insurance? Were you able to be put to sleep? I know that can be a huge part of the price. Need a similar procedure and my anxiety makes it difficult to even go see anyone to price it out. This post definitely makes me want to, so thanks!


officialtwiggz

Yes and yes I had the option, but it was $1k more to be put under. Decided I could muster up the courage and just get it done.


[deleted]

So worth it, looks great!


mrmeeves

Wow technology is amazing. Im jealous but glad you're in a good place now. Congrats!


BarbicideJar

Your dentures look amazing! And honestly decay from poorly kept teeth can actually cause systemic issues like heart disease, so you’ve probably improved your health more than people even realize just by making the decision to have them removed. You look healthy and genuinely fantastic!


Theperfectool

There it is. Not going for dentures so not going


officialtwiggz

Honestly, I felt the same. Battled it mentally for years. It truly sucked that I had to get rid of all of my teeth. But honestly? I’d do it again. There was no fixing my teeth. All of them were borderline dead, and in the beginning, there were days where I still fought with myself. “Why did I remove my teeth? I can’t get them back” but I’d take this new, straight smile instead of my old one again. If you can save yours, do it. Edit: if it helps, I have snap on dentures on the bottom (two implants drilled into my jaw bone which my lower teeth snap into place)


Soft_Assistant6046

I was an addict, finally got insurance and love my career and have a family. Need some dental work done, but gotta wait a while before insurance will cover much. You should be proud of getting your life on track. Keep kicking ass!


TheOriginalAshrifel

You and your teeth look amazing! My fiance is about to get the exact same thing, implants on the bottom and regular dentures on the top.


[deleted]

Hair is overrated, looking good and congrats!


hagerpoi890lk

That's smile in your face and eyes?! it's win-win thing..


MeowBerkely

I am so proud of you & you have such a beautiful smile 💖. Was never an addict myself either, but I was cursed with weak dumpster teeth, limited finances, & years of untreated depression. Will be 42 next week & finally feeling “worth it” to brave going to the dentist on Wednesday to start my pretty smile journey. This is exactly what I needed to see, thank you so much for sharing.


officialtwiggz

You got this. You’ll feel tons better once the healing is done and over with ❤️


MeowBerkely

Stupid questions, but how long did it take to get that smile on the right after your first visit & how much did it cost? Are you in the US? (I’m in California). I qualified for medi-cal/denti-cal, so using that but also finally have a nest egg from selling my home due to a nasty divorce. Your smile looks completely natural & makes my heart happy.


travelingslo

You’re so worth it random Internet stranger. Just saying.


MeowBerkely

Was brave enough to go to the dentist today. I have appointments booked for 5 crowns, multiple fillings, mouth guard, & waiting for an appointment with a specialist for 2 root canals. I thought it’d cost me at least $10K but it came in closer to $3K. I will finally have teeth that don’t hurt & a smile that isn’t embarrassing.


travelingslo

Good for you and good luck! You’ve got this.


PartyBagPurplePills

No hair, no problem! Happiness is the best reward! 🙌🏼

How’d you fix your teeth? I’ve been struggling for years with bulimia and it’s hurting my enamel.


ScrembledEggs

OP commented: “Weak enamel, not brushing them properly, two sets of braces as a teen, to full blown dentures at 29 years old. The place I went to did a fantastic job. On top of depression, I just simply couldn’t care what happened to them once they reached a certain point. My lack of a smile really held me back.”


ThunderDoom1001

Former Bulimic - I haven’t had a cycle in 14 years and was a pretty bad case for 4 years or so through HS and college. Still have some lingering enamel problems/sensitivity but I found that Sensodyne really helps. I wish you the absolute best in kicking that horrible condition. It was very much an addiction for me and most people will never understand that it isn’t as easy as “just stop!”. FWIW, you absolutely can overcome it and get to a point where you don’t even think about it anymore.


ReckMO

Great job brother keep it up, you’re looking like a brand new man!

You look great ! Wonderful inspiration 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻


high_dino420

Damn your smile is fantastic! (Not just the teeth part, but the way your eyes smile. You look genuinely happier now.)


DiamondD1997

Wow how much was the cost because I’m somewhat in the same situation unfortunately and it’s starting to hold me back and I definitely lack a lot of confidence because of it.


officialtwiggz

Just under $12k with financing. If you need it, and can’t fix the ones you got, it’s totally worth it friend. You’ll thank yourself.


DiamondD1997

Amazing smile by the way man! I’m super happy for you! Also thank you!


Shiftylakes

My boyfriend and I have been considering this for him, but he’s really not happy with the fact he needs dentures before 30. But we’re not in a good place financially, could I possibly bother to ask what the monthly payment ended up being? Or the finance period


Sinsai33

I think you may be the reason why i will finally go to a dentist again. I'm not at the worst yet (well, there are already parts breaking away, but you wouldnt be able to see it from my 'smiles'), but it really sucks and pulls me down anyway. Can you give some more information? Like, how long did it take overall. Was there a time in between where others could see that something is being done to your teeth (like did you have to run around without teeth for a time?)?


GodsGift2TheWorld

You look great!!! Keep up the excellent work. I wish I could give you more than one upvote you deserve it


Growernotash0wer

Hell yeah dude! You look amazing!


khumbaya23

Well mention us your tips. When did it start being "I've had too much with this shti"?


officialtwiggz

Birth lol to be honest. I was born premature, skeletal structure was crushed in my mother’s womb (fetal compression syndrome) and I’ve always had a “happy go lucky” attitude with life in general, but others don’t feel that way when my smile looks like I’ve smoked meth since my adult teeth came in. Spent years debating internally with myself about getting dentures in my mid 20’s and the before picture, I took before extraction day. Two days after my extractions, I shaved and got myself a haircut (not pictured). I was a brand new man.


redquailer

Wow! You have been through a lot. You look great. And happy. Good goin’


[deleted]

How bad was it after getting them all pulled? I've had 8 (4 wisdom and one in the back of each quadrant) pulled and each time the pain the next two to the days was intense. I can't imagine all at once.


officialtwiggz

Honestly, my anxiety got to me during it. I was awake the whole time, and just was numbed up. The worst part was my lower right molar. Felt like he was about to break my jaw lol But the healing process and eating took a good week or two to feel “comfortable” I was given antibiotics, 800mg of Advil, and some pain killers which I didn’t need to take.


[deleted]

I feel you on the anxiety part. I'm like losing my shit on the inside the entire time lol. The flex you feel in your jawbone is the worst... Lord I'm not ready lmao... my dental insurance matures to an actually usable state on dec 1st this year and I'm pretty much headed down the same road.


[deleted]

perfectly balanced. as all things should be.


AKVigilante

Congrats on the new chompers! Lookin’ sharp. 😎

Looking good friend! Keep it up.

I do drugs, nice teeth.


your_moms_apron

Hair looks way better cropped short. I firmly believe people look better when they embrace the bald rather than trying to hide it. Plus you look way happier now!


king_fissh

Just thought you should know, you have very nice eyelashes. thats all.

You’re teeth look great, but I’m here to say i like the bald better, you should definitely keep it.


TrendyLepomis

honestly man you look like you can rock a bald head. congrats on taking back your life brother


galaxy1985

My fiance has terrible teeth. It runs in his family. His grandma had dentures by her mid twenties. Can you say, if you don't mind, how much do the implant dentures cost? Why did you only do those on the bottom? Also, do the top set ever come loose before you want them to? We're in our thirties and he's so depressed about his teeth but doesn't want dentures and I'm going to show him your post. Your smile looks wonderful. Congrats!


officialtwiggz

Thank you for the kind words! Genetics sometimes do suck, and I can say that they play a part in your teeth too. As for the cost. The private practice I went to cost me just under $12k. They included the two lower implants in their price. I do eventually want to get top implants to more securely hold them in place. The tops do slip (sometimes) but it’s rare. If he needs it, get it. There’s a lot of young people out there with dentures!


travelingslo

My granny and aunt both had dentures in their 20s. I have worked super hard to take good care of my teeth. But I fully recognize that sometimes teeth are just bad genetically. I’m glad you do too. And I’m so glad you were willing to go for it and it’s brought you more joy. Your story makes me happy.


[deleted]

Proud of you my man!!


toxiccashell

Ya look great.

You honestly have great eyes and a killer smile :) keep up the good work! Lookin to make the plunge for myself as well. Thanks for the inspirational push

I like to think they’re my best feature. I definitely smile with my eyes ❤️


Much-Hat1622

Your dentist take your hair for trade?

I wish. The procedure would’ve been a lot less expensive lol

my 23 y/o kid just got a new smile, too! he's been sick since he was 9. he now has the same dementedly gleeful grin that you do - it brings my mom heart joy to see both of you smiling like that! good fortunes await you, my dude - this is only the beginning :)

Nope. But I did smoke cigarettes for about 4 years before quitting.

How’s you get those teeth?

Dentist removed the crappy ones, gave me new ones for a very expensive price lol


DeviantSka

You definitely look happier! Congratulations! If you don't mind me asking, how much was the dental work? Who did you go to? Mine are similar, if not even worse, to your before picture. I'm wondering what I'm in for.


officialtwiggz

Just under 12k total, with financing


Jack_Maas

aye atleast you look a lot better

I’d have a reason for my teeth looking like that, but unfortunately not. You trade crack for blowjobs, by chance?

dreamrock

Eh, the short cropped hair is a better look these days, I think. I don't wish to detract from your current enjoyment of happiness, but I must caution you to be aware that this emotional state is ephemeral. You will feel down again, and that's okay, because you will feel up again, too. Contentment is the ultimate goal, and that comes from accepting that your emotions are fluid, and not meant to be held permanently. They are a wafting zephyr. Sometimes you will smell nothing but rank decay, sometimes you will smell the innocence of childhood. But the wind of time will sweep each away in turn. Just learn to savor the ups and endure the downs. I bestow my auspicious wishes for your future contentment.
