I've had a plate for several months

Let's face it they're false teeth

Not a joy when eating

And food gets stuck beneath

Of course, my smile was stunning

I looked a handsome gent

And no one knew t'was held in place

By yuck pink Fixodent

The answer from Rebecca

A bridge to fill the gap

As long as my own canines

Do not turn out as crap

And now in just a short few weeks

I should get back my bite

And gnashers though not genuine

They will stay in at night.
