My mother has broken seven of her upper teeth at the front of her mouth, so she will need to have a bridge/false teeth made. OR she will need to have implants put in


Where did you find "to stitch duplicate teeth"?

My mother didn't broke her tooth, they fell itself. Maybe because her gum became loose.

How to say that?

Maybe, "My mother 7 upper teeth has fallen at the front of her mouth, so she will need to have implants put in." Is this correct?

It was just my idea. I did hear "stitch teeth" once somewhere though I don't know where it was.

We would just say "My mother has lost seven upper teeth...."

As to stitching teeth, it would sound as if she is sewing new teeth to put in. I would forget it as a phrase immediately  Smile [:)]

I suppose a dentist might sometimes stitch up the gum, after removing a tooth.

Very difficult to stitch teeth together, though. (Except hens' teeth.)
