For the vast majority of people who experience hair loss, it’s... normal and expected, maybe somewhat romantically limiting. Poor dental health can be poor health overall. Traveling to Eastern Europe to spend $10k for something I actually need is not an option for me.

Yeah I can close my mouth. And suffer. And let it keep rotting, crossing my fingers that related health impacts don’t get to me before I can pay a car’s value to get health care. Or people can look at my bald head and... nothing meaningful happened.

I appreciate your kindness in expressing this contrarian view, but it’s not helpful.
