Not exactly an inviting sign, despite the considerable talent of the artist.

Apparently they specialize in dentures:

PS: Hope your the pain has subsided. Take it easy out there.

I found lots of mouths full of gold in Quetzaltenango and nearby villages (like Totonicapán).

Not unlike the urban black male of the USA who sports a "grill" full of (often fake but not always) gold teeth, being able to afford to have your teeth outlines in gold is a sign of prosperity and social affluence. I've seen the entire set of upper teeth outlined in gold (in what I would assume is a rather permanent procedure).
