That could buy me a paint job, or an engine, or another motorcycle, or some other one-time deal.

$3K for invisalign crap for my teeth, basically clear plastic that you wear over your teeth to help move them. Along with all the other hassles of brushing and removing them and probably having to wear a retainer a few days a week for life.

Parents gave me the choice to do braces or not when I was about 10. And of course I said no, what 10 yr old wouldn't? Now I'm payin' for it. Without insurance it's $4700.

But considering I hadn't been to the dentist in maybe 12 years, I probably saved enough there to pay for this.

My teeth are so crooked I can clench them shut and still drink through a straw...

So you have some gaps in the grille, eh? Think of it like getting some body work done. If you ever want to win "Best In Show" you have to have all the parts. Nice detailing too.

Take care of your teeth!!! People do not think about teeth until there is a problem. A paint job can come anytime!

Not to forget, dental health affects your heart health too.

If you can afford it, it's an excellent investment. My dad's 87 and still has all of his teeth because he's always taken care of them.

I just dumped in $3k on a pair of root canals and crowns.

I checked on invisalign after that - $5k. Where did you find $3k??? Chain clinic? Mine sure ain't so bad.

Get em. Best to take of the grill so the ones you have dont fall out!

I'd go for it. If it makes you feel better about yourself it's well worth it. Small cosmetic changes can make a big difference (thought about breast implants?)

Your health is more importatn than the material shit you can get later.

Here I fixed it for ya:

"Thinking of spending $3K on my nuts. Am I teeth?

I agree get the teeth fixed. They are very important to good health.

Teeth first!! Car second

The two questions in the thread title are unrelated.

It's a good investment.

As you advance in any professional career, your look becomes even more important. When you are 40 with bad teeth, people will be more inclined to dismiss you based on appearance.

This is so true with high end Europeans. Seriously. Joke all you want about English dental work, but at the high end professionals are all about the look.

I agree, get the boob job instead.

But have them mounted on your back.

But then I wouldn't be able to fondle them and bury my head in them.

Lipstick on a pig.

Be like a NHS treated British Woman and have decent breasts and terrible teeth.

You could ride your crotchrocket by yourself and still appear you had a chick on the back. Think of all the gas youd save.
Brilliant idea if I do say do myself.

smile when you on the bike.

Maybe the bugs impact will straighten them out for you.
