After not visiting my dentist for 7 years I suddenly got dental coverage at my work a couple months ago, and then a chunk of my molar fell out while I was eating a sandwich. I didn’t floss so I got gum disease and cavities and my tooth rotted and my nerve died. A sad story. Only you can prevent forest fires, or something – DON’T LET THIS HAPPEN TO YOU! Cleanings are $200 whereas root canals are over $1000, so visit your dentist if not every six months like they tell you, at least every 2 years.
Also my dentist now has actual fangs. Things change in 7 years. Did you know?
In a way, this is a happy result. You might not have gotten dental insurance, but your tooth would still have fallen apart.
Shouldn’t the title of this post be “Do What Donny Don’t Doesn’t Do”? As in, flossing.
