	It would be an extremely clever person who could recognise their very own lost false teeth from a " Lost false teeth depository " in a Hospital..............lol.............makes me SO glad that I've still got all me own real ones : ))

	One of my sisters worked on this ward... and if someone died in the night, their false teeth would have been whipped by the morning, lolol!! Hayley.... I do so hope you find them...... my mum would be devastated to be without her false teeth!! Love Daff xxxx

	They are a box ......not just a pair of teeth hanging about...

	Oh, right you did say brand new.... that should make it easier for the staff to find, then, but I won't hold my breath.... they may not have the time to look very hard..... it is no laughing matter, really... my mother's last pair took 10 months to sort out and cost about £500, so they aren't cheap, either. Love Daff xxxxx
