I've lived in a few developing countries where none of this is happening. There were plenty of children with rotten teeth and so many adults with missing/decayed teeth. Be grateful for the procedures you have available to you, because people who don't have them. There are a lot of places where getting a cavity means you end up having the tooth just pulled, and a lot of people end up with graying, decaying teeth at a fairly young age.

It was that way in the US until recently and depending on the dentist.

Putting breathing in the same system as eating

Putting the waste system in the same system/vicinity of sexual organs

Knees and hips too.

The original designs were for single use and limited timeframes! You guys are the ones abusing the equipment!

Rotting teeth and gum disease help cardio things kill people earlier. Part of the obsolescence plan to get turnover. We keep trying to thwart that.
All us knee replacement people...we were supposed to get caught by lions long ago.

So god changed the design of Adam and Eve after they ate the forbidden fruit?

Yeah - hadn't you heard? At least he told Eve that all women would henceforth bring children into the world in great pain.

A religion created by men that blames all women forever, and for all time. There is nothing misogynistic about it.

Eh, the human body was only 'designed' to last 40 or 50 years. In the olden days, people died of natural causes or got eaten by tigers by then. Our teeth and hips are good for 50 years, so the design meets the requirements. God was one heck of an engineer.

It's only as humans began living longer through artificial intervention that these parts started wearing out.

We're like cars that were delivered with a 100,000 mile warranty. With lots of maintenence and perhaps a new engine, we've made it to 200,000 miles ... but the door hinges are creaking and the seats are wearing thin.

Your god designed people to only last for 40-50 years, yet those same early people supposedly lived for hundreds of years... great engineering plan! Very well thought out for an omniscient entity.

Apparently God didn't design you with intelligence.

People have been complaining about rotten, painful teeth for as long as we have a historical record. If evolution ever got it right, it’s about 10,000 years behind.

Have you noticed many dentists and orthodontists don't have "perfect" teeth themselves? It's even easier for them now wearing facial masks to mask their imperfect teeth.

I think perfect teeth are not in fashion these days.
