Like if they die with braces, a metal retainer, earrings, a gold tooth, a pacemaker, et cetera.

    Because the person you replied to is acting purposely obtuse? It’s clear that the OP was asking what is done with any non-organic materials that may be inside a person when they die. Are they removed? Are they left to be buried in the ground? What about cremation, do they burn the body with any of that inside? That’s pretty obvious to anyone with above a 5th grade reading comprehension, so a snarky reply is unwarranted and obnoxious.

        You don’t? lol I thought it was quite obvious and the top comment is just a funny joke sans /s

        This is not intended to be a criticism, more an observation that our perceptions (mine, in this case) are not universally shared

          I also did not think it was clear.

          Honestly my first thought was “is this a religious question like do your braces go with you to heaven/hell or something?”

          I had an idea of what they wanted, but it was a wide scope. I don’t actually know the answer, but I’d imagine it’s different whether it’s something like a pacemaker vs golden teeth. The phrasing was poor and vague, so I rolled with it.

      I was being a bit obtuse, but the question was worded poorly. If OP wanted to know what happens after cremation, or an autopsy, or something else like that, they should have clarified. You yourself literally came up three additional questions, all of which might apply to the original question. I just decided to answer it literally.

      Thank you, exactly my point:

      Nothing is clear about what OP meant. It is a very vague question. Yet here we are, you are super confident about what exactly was meant.
