I hate eupemisms especially those that are designed to conceal the fact that a nation or an organization is doing some nasty things to a group of people.
I had lost both of my two front by the time I was 10. You can do root canals a few times but at some point after more than 3 decades there is no tooth left. So I have been faced with a new solution. One is an implant for each tooth which is expensive and does not always work. The cheaper solution is to get a "permanent denture". While I liked it being far cheaper, just the word "denture" conjured up images of my grandmother going to bed with her teeth in a glass on her night table. I was just not prepared to admit that a I am well down the path to someday being old.
I think maybe "appliance", a total euphemism for sure, may have sounded nicer. How about "Freedom Crown"?
