There is a korean saying 'Teeth is better than son and daughters', it means people can eat delicious food only when they have teeth. It stresses the importance of teeth. Healthy teeth are very important in one's life. It's true that we can keep them healthy by brushing our teeth, but as people get older, their teeth weaken and some of them even fall out. Because teeth are quiet weak, they also can be easily damaged by accident. As people realize the importance of teeth, dentures(틀니) have been invented. Several years ago, when my dad helped my grandfather to do farm work, he was hit by the cultivator by accident. By this accident, his lips were torn and some of his teeth fell out. After the operation that sew up his lips, he came back to home and went to dental clinic to fill his empty gums. Until that time, I just thought that the dentures are the only thing we can do to replace missing teeth. The dentist said "As just two of your teeth fell out, you'd better do implant dental". And he also said implant is as comfortable as real teeth. Hearing this, I was very surprised. All of the elderly I had seen wore dentures, and it seemed very uncomfortable because they have to take out their dentures to brush them. My dad decided to do impant dental, and he came to chew his food well again. Implant was invented in 1980s, but because of its high cost, dentures can cause remainng teeth decay and fall out, implant dental don't. Also, implant dental is very similar to one's real teeth in shape and function. I really agree that teeth is very important in our lives. Of course, real teeth are better than artificial teeth, but if the case that my teeth happens, I will choose to do implant dental. Now I can speak with assurance that implant dental is one of the best inventions in this world. |

- It has facts and reasons that support the opinion, but I think the writer should add more to it. For instance why it was invented(the dental implent) and more details about how it could function like the real teeth, etc.
5. Put a check in the margin next to the points that you understand and agree with. Explain why you agree.
- I agree with the sentence "It's true that we can keep them healthy by brushing our teeth, but as people get older, their teeth weaken and some of them even fall out". I've seen many people around me having trouble with their teeth because it become weaken as they become old. It can be a very disturbing problem because we use teeth when we eat every day.
6. Write one or two questions about something that needs clarification or additional support.
- How is the implant dental similar to one's real teeth in shape and function? Can you specifiy it? And doesn't it have side effects when you wear it?
