I don't believe Jesus is God because I'm not a Christian, but supposing he was/is as Francis Spufford and a few billion others believe would he really have bad teeth? It seems to me like Spufford hasn't really given this the level of consideration I would give on these details.

Say he broke his leg would he just leave it broken for the human experience while healing the lame, the blind or whatever? I would think he would just regenerate himself seeing as it would be basic general maintenace. He would keep himself in prime condition. Like say he would avoid dying of cancer or something before being able to sacrifice himself on the cross for the sins of humanity. I would guess whatever it was he did by getting himself killed in that specific way wouldn't work then. There aren't really any books out there that would deal with the kinds of questions I would ask.
