CraftyChara | 2120 comments Any books that have somebody losing their teeth in them? Whether it be a treatment, punishment or just have them fall out.

Not yet. I forgot that Gypsy Rose's "treatments" caused her teeth to fall out.

As always Rosa, you come thru with recommendations.

Rachel | 1527 comments A Million Little Pieces has a very memorable dentistry scene.

The main character in Case Histories has recurring problems with his teeth although it's not a major part of the plot.
