Dental Visit

Nov 25: Dental Visit

Going to the dentist reminds me of getting a test back from my school teacher, and believe me or not their comments can be quite similar...

Dental hygienist (Lisa) : Any problems with your teeth (homework)?
Me: No! Not at all... no bleeding gums, no pain, no concern.
Lisa: How often did you floss (study)?
Me: Every few days or so. What? Did I do something wrong?
Lisa: (Checking on the X-ray - "test")....... Oh dear! I will have to discuss further with Dr. Rush.
Me: How do I do? (Please don't send my parents in!!!)
Lisa: You've gingivitis! (failed in xxx subject)
Dr. Rush: I need to refer you to a periodonist (tutor), and in the meanwhile, you need to floss (study) every day.
Me: Will do... (Oh great, I am in BIG trouble!!!)

So, What have I done to deserve a "E" on my test? Brushing twice a day is obviously not enough, and the only trick that could save you from another trip to the dentist is to "floss, floss, and flosssssssssssssss!!!!!!!!!
