Love you and love our family. Thank you everyone for the love and warm wishes – we all feel them.”While the b-day soiree certainly was touching, many fans couldn’t help but notice that the actor appeared to be missing a tooth.“Does no one care Bruce is missing a front tooth… What happened there?” wrote one concerned commenter in the comments.“Bruce is missing a tooth,” said another.While many gawkers repeated this question, one viewer told the original commenter to “mind your own business.”Last month, Willis’ announced that the “Tears Of The Sun” actor had frontotemporal dementia, a degenerative disorder caused by neuron damage in the frontal and temporal lobes of the brain. “FTD is a cruel disease,” they wrote in a joint statement last month. “Today there are no treatments for the disease, a reality that we hope can change in the years ahead.”It came nearly a year after the actor was diagnosed with aphasia, another brain disorder that forced him to retire from acting early last year, as the brain disorder affects his ability to communicate.

Willis had reportedly been struggling on set prior to his diagnosis.In fact, earlier in the day on Sunday, Emma Heming Willis uploaded a heartbreaking Instagram video, in which she described feeling grief and sadness on her husband’s first birthday.
