Even my dentist or my exwife could believe I lost them to this stuff. I had mine out because beside the rads and chemo I was also getting rad seed implants. That is one of the reasons to lose them. Last decent food in this mouth was before Jan 17 of 2008 and none since. The imlants do a job on your tongue, It burns all of the time and hurts , and even the soft food and any type of juice , including coffee makes it worse. I hope you keep yours
