Went to the dentist and -
 

He says I have great teethe - Yay, that's a win!!!

Then he says 'its just just a shame your gums are fucked' - DOH!!!!!

I think he was just pissed because I was late...

Now I have to go back next week to see some creepy nurse.....

So you telling me protein is good for teeth enamel but not gums.

You must not floss. When people have gum issues, they typically don't floss.

lol - It seems that way...

I never used to until about a year ago and I found these great stick things - Its like floss, I think they might be too harsh though and done more damage than good...

What is a 'Dentist' ?

Its some guy you hand money over to - He inflicts pain and then tells you that you have to come back and pay them more money...

Like prostitutes or drug dealers but with less ethics.....

You probably aren't flossing *properly*

baking soda does more good for your gums and teeth than regular flossing ever will..

Like a proctologist, but works on the other end. Both make you pay out the ass for their services

Probably going to go back next week and they will take most of them out like happened to my dog.

Use floss not those stick picks theyre much different and will make your gums receed. Just reg floss or the threaded flossers work great for those hard to reach places. You also may be brushing TOO hard. Let the brush do the work

i love going to the dentist. i'm a fanatic about oral hygeine and like it all, especially that feeling of super clean teeth after a cleaning. i've been lucky and not had too much tooth pain associated with trips to the dentist. if they don't have to work super hard on the cleaning, it's much more pleasant.

They all find something to take our money.
