All I Want for Christmas
is a set of Dental Implants

Life used to be so simple and food easy to eat. I could go to a restaurant, order a meal with corn on the cob, and eat the corn right there in front of the food server and the rest of the restaurant's patrons. Now when I order a meal that comes with corn on the cob, I take the corn home, remove a sharp knife from the drawer (hopefully without cutting an important finger off), and cut the corn off the cob before I eat it.

I can remember hearing Nat King Cole sing All I Want for Christmas is my Two Front Teeth and laughing at the words because I could remember loosing my baby teeth. I remembered the tooth fairy slipping a quarter under my pillow for the tooth and then taking the tooth back the fairy land or where ever she went after paying me for my tooth. I remembered having difficulty say some words and letters because I did not have my front teeth. I do not remember asking Santa Claus for my two front teeth, but I imagine there were a lot of children who did. Now I am 67 going on 68 and all I want for Christmas is a set of dental implants.

All I want for Christmas is a set of dental implants,
a set of dental implants, a set of dental implants;
All I want for Christmas is a set of dental implants,
so I can eat a Christmas dinner.

It's been so long since I could eat
a piece of pecan pie,
Oh how happy I would be
to eat an entire turkey thigh.

All I want for Christmas is a set of dental implants,
a set of dental implants, a set of dental implants;
All I want for Christmas is a set of dental implants,
so we could go out for Christmas dinner.
