Thinking more about Scarecrow's mask turned into doing a variety of burlap sacks based on phobia themes whoOPS

CW: Odontophobia

Inspired by a page in @deadeyedfae 's comic Moribund:

All immortal people would eventually have HELLA dental issues, right? Like, even if you heal from every injury, teeth simply do not heal. Those "permanent teeth" are gonna seem a lot LESS permanent to somebody who's lived for hundreds of years! They'd eventually decay or get knocked out or even just get chipped until they're worn down to the nub!

I could totally imagine a world where one way to tell that someone is immortal is if they look like they're 25 but have the dentures of a 90-year-old! Like obvs you'd need other signs since there ARE young people who need dentures after all, but that could be one of the first indications to help you narrow it down!

Only exception I can think of might be vampires. A lot of sharp-toothed predators IRL (like sharks and alligators) keep growing new teeth and replacing their old ones over time, so maybe vampires would do the same since they're predators (dietary not sexually ofc) as well!

I could totally imagine a young vampire learning the ropes from an older one, and then one day a few of their teeth just fall the fuck out and their mentor says "yeah they do that sometimes lol"

(You should read Moribund btw, it's good and it's about a trans woman vampire, but be warned it may make you sad. I promise the teeth thing isn't really a part of it, I'm just hyperfixating on a throwaway line lol. It's on both @deadeyedfae 's Tumblr and on Webtoon!)

My mom has been drinking beer since forever and its left her teeth stained with a permanent beer smell. My father has been an smoker on and off throughout my life too and his teeth always scared me because it reminded me of those psa ads ;[ (iykyk) now as an adult I take extra precaution to care for my teeth and its always satisfying when dentists tell me I have perfect teeth✨🦷 I've been blessed! I have a rlly bad phobia of losing teeth or having oral infections >.< in my dreams there are rare times where my teeth will fall out of my mouth and it would scare me to death.

Uh oh, new hyperfixation
