If you want trouble, find yourself a redhead

They already have sealants, Jon. I'd be more inclined to go with those. |

I've never had a cavity. Ever. When I go for cleanings, the dentist looks at how deep the roots of my teeth are from my Panorex, then looks at what little cleaning needs to be done, and just marvels. I gots good choppers. They're in there like ROCKS. Arrrrr......

My younger brother, who is about your age, also has rock solid perfect teeth. The was a movement in the mid sixties through the seventies for women to use fluoride supplements while pregnant. I always assumed it was that, but it could be just good genes. |

HOLY CARP!!!

Pretty soon the only thing dentists will be able to make money from is orthodontics and cosmetics. |

Civilisation, I vaguely realized then - and subsequent observation has confirmed the view - could not progress that way. It must have a greater guiding principle to survive. To treat it as a carcase off which each man tears as much as he can for himself, is to stand convicted a brute, fit for nothing better than a jungle existence, which is a death-struggle, leading nowhither. I did not believe that was the human destiny, for Man individually was sane and reasonable, only collectively a fool. I hope the gunner of that Hun two-seater shot him clean, bullet to heart, and that his plane, on fire, fell like a meteor through the sky he loved. Since he had to end, I hope he ended so.

Hrmmm... That's very interesting. I didn't know that. The only dental work I've ever had to have, was capping my top front two teeth and getting root canals done on them. They got smashed in a nasty bike wreck I had as a teenager, and I had all four wisdom teeth dug out, because they were impacted, while I was in the Army. They weren't causing me a bit of pain, but the dentist noticed it on the Panorex and said, "All four of 'em gotta' go." It was cool... I was sitting in the chair and the assistant started an IV on me. She put a syringe into the port with the anasthesia in it, and said, "Where did you say you were from again?" as she depressed the plunger. I said, "California........." Blackness I remembered nothing else until I awoke, in total darkness and silence. I thought I was dead, for a moment. Then I realized that I was in a bed in the hospital, in a sitting position, my mouth stuffed full of gauze, and an emesis basin on my chest. It was pretty strange.

Yeah. I'll bet the syringe was a distraction while someone clubbed him over the head. |

Actually, it was done at Yokota Air Force hospital. All we had at Camp Zama was a little clinic. They could have done it there, but I would have been conscious for it, and I'm sure it would have sucked badly. Apparently, they had to dig through the gums to find all four teeth and actually break them into pieces and dig them out of the bone. *shudder* |
