Shane MacGowan seeks dentist

Although it’s a shame that anyone would alter a signature look like that, I think dental health is really important to maintaining good health as you age. I was pretty involved with my grandmother’s care at the end of her life and probably the biggest factor affecting her health was her inability to chew properly - both because of dentures that didn’t’ fit well and people’s swallowing reflex gets worse as they age. Both my dad and my mother in law have had extensive dental work that has caused them to both lose more pounds than is healthy since they were reduced to eating liquid diets for a long time. So, yeah - his teeth are pretty fierce and I’m sorry he is wanting to change this, but I assume it’s not a cosmetic reason only - not just about starring in a movie but also maybe he just can’t chew with such crap teeth.
