New teeth new problems
Jevon:
My advice: If your gonna spend 21 grand on something, you might want figure out how to protect it before it before you buy it...
otherwise, I like Mark's link...
kmck:
I look for peoples opinions, research a piece of kit and then see if I really need it. Don't see any problem in using a resource if it's there. Part of what Kate said mirrored your advice of body position, her concern with a gumsheild was swallowing or blocking your airway. Also she pointed out that most knocks to your face are due to your paddles or your hands rather than rocks.
Since you broke your teeth in the alps, where able to fly back and get them checked I thought you may have had an insurance policy on them or the vhi dental cover or something similar.
Jevon call it being short sigthed, I was more concerned in trying raise 21 grand than what to do afterwards.
Does anyone know about British mountaineers and their outdoor insurance?
david:
BMC are cock suckers and didn't pay a penny for my teeth, they Felt front teeth are a cosmetic luxery.
noone will insure your teeth on a river.
Fake teeth are no more expensive to replace than real ones. I'm on my third set and they cost no more than the first set.
Just tuck up and your teeth'll be fine.
mmmmm:
Saying just tuck up and your teeth will be fine along with I'm on my third set of teeth in the same post seems kinda contradictory Dave!

Of course you've never added an off-topic, vague or random reply to a thread, have you Kmck?
Would the gumshield prevent you from keeping the water out of your mouth/airway while capsized? A full face looks like a good way to go, that Stormtrooper one is pretty deadly.
