Team Dental Hygiene

Mrs. Marzullo will be happy to learn that I recently joined the company tooth brushing team. After lunch, this prestegious ‘invite only’ social club gets together in various bathrooms throughout the building to clean their teeth.

I’m still an amature, using Crest Kids bubblegum flavor toothpaste (<-- NASTY) and an older model toothbrush. even still, I am a proud brusher. It's a good team to join, especially with dental insurance being so expensive. One has to do everything they can to avoid Kurt's classic dentist trip with 12+ cavities.

    Wow, did Kurt really have 12 cavities? That’s got to be some kind of record.

    Actually, I only had 11. I had 2 cavaties from childhood, so I guess you can say cumulatively I have had 12+ cavaties. It takes a special kind of something to get twelve cavaties in one visit. I think I have 4 teeth that don’t have metal in them. I’m rather proud of them, I gave them names (Bitey, Chompy, Jimmy, and “Gnasher, Slayer of Steaks”.

    ahh yes. I’ve heard legends of Gnasher, Slayer of Steaks. Some say it can gnash through the raw hide of an African boar in a single bite. Others have suggested that Gnasher has an enamel coat thicker than three nickels stacked high.

    Bitey, Jimmy, and Chompy just can’t compare.

    Just wanted to say that I’ve never had a cavity. That’s right – never.

    However, my parents seemed to have perfect teeth until age 27 or so, when they suffered catastrophic collapse. So it could all be for naught.

    Have there been any studies that show that brushing after every meals leads to fewer dental issues than the standard once-in-the-morning-and-once-at-night routine?

    Yes Mike I am very proud of you for joining the toothbrushing club, but you may consider starting the very first ever flossing club. Remember, you don’t have to floss all of your teeth, just the ones you want to keep! :)

    12 is nothing. When I was 16, I had a cavity for every year of my life. They came out of nowhere. We did 8 fillings at a time. Needless to say, I brush a lot more now than I used to.

    I’ve never had a cavity, either. And I have all my wisdom teeth.
