a while between tips

i have one tip for you, dear readers.

it's possibly the biggest and most important tip i can impart.

floss your teeth. always. no matter how tired you are, how drunk, how sure you are there is nothing stuck in between them.

i have just returned from an hour in the dentist chair - session #2 of my SECOND root canal.

it's uncomfortable. it's expensive. and it's probably avoidable

BY


FLOSSING


EVERY


DAY.


that is all.

Comiserations dear Melba.
Think of the poor dentist though - there is not enough money for me to think I would enjoy working all day in the mouth of a careless person (or even a careful person, come to think of it.

Gum health is the key.

I had root canal in the 80's.

Heh - I have braces right now. I know the importance of flossing! Six months between my last dentist vist and the one before that. The former I was praised on how clean I was keeping my traintracks....the next visit I was reprimanded for not cleaning them enough! Only 6 months between! And I only got a little bit slack, flossing 4 times a week instead of the usual 6. Tsk Tsk.
