I was born with this exact defect. I only have 8 adult teeth. Most people hate going to the dentist, I needed to go really often between 18 en 21. I have 4 wisdom teeth, 2 up and 2 down. 2 molars and 2 front teeth on the upper side. My front teeth became my fangs using braces for a few years. So somewhere around my 21st they finished the work by creating a bridge using gold and porcelain on the upper side residing on my molars and the 2 fangs. On the lower jar, since I only have 2 wisdom teeth there, I got titanium implants. The weird thing is that my teeth feel real. Since teeth do not have sensors you feel everything in your mouth with vibrations that go through your teeth to your jaws. I only understood that when I got my false teeth.
I am really pleased with this news, as I hope that no one has to go through what I have been through. Getting this extensive dental surgery on the age I was leaves a deep mark. I never had any confidence due to my bad (small) teeth. I never smiled on photos. I think the first time I ever did was a few years back; I am almost 45 now.
