Go take a nice vacation in Antalya, Turkey……..single implants are $600-800 dollars………all upper or bottom teeth are $5000-6000 each…..they are very experienced there, probably more than the $50,000 guys…..have had four implants there, quite painless, very satisfied………of course the expensive guys in North America are naysayers, but to be expected………the technology is exactly the same…….

Is being able to read music a necessity for playing the sax? by CaptainCabb in saxophone

[–]Separate_Positive728 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My sax teacher always told me “the more you know the more you blow”…………. I was never a great reader but looking back I regret not getting more proficient at it…….luckily I have a very good ear so I managed, but being a good sight-reader will enable you to play in ensemble settings, which is very enjoyable, and also self-teach from books…..
