Many of us here have endured the various experiences, good and bad, of growing older. I recall that long ago, I read of the human face becoming changed with age, as we here are certain to know it does, this being caused aside from skin-tone loss, but rather a tightening of the facial skin about the skull, which, obviously being unyieldable bone, stays the same. So, basically, the skin of the face, neck, scalp, becomes less pliable, while it is shrinking, which brings me to my "imponderable" on this:
A few years ago, I noted that for the first time ever, I had been biting the insides of my cheeks, way back where the still-present Wisdom teeth reside. I realized it was happening usually when we dined out at some buffet affair which provided the necessary psychological "oomph", that, "OKAY", (which I knew wasn't), go ahead and overindulge. That incentive seemed to be resulting in my inner-cheeks' "ouch".
Lately, it seems more of a problem, as I awake of a morning with pain due to the back molars biting my inner cheeks as I sleep.
Is this the isolated experience of a non-sensical old fool, or have any of you experienced similar things? imp
