“AT, I can’t believe it, and it frustrates me.  You haven’t been to the dentist in over a decade, and theres nothing wrong with your teeth.”

-The hygienist

 

OK, go ahead and curse me in your infinite jealousy, internet…

    Only you, AT, would have that kind of luck. You just saved yourself an assload of money and one-upped your dentist. . . however you will miss out on the nitrous you would get with fillings. It’s a Catch 22.

    Be thankful for fluoridation. And quit being so smug.

    Fluoridation is a communist plot to take away our vitality.

  5. timsan1 Says:

    Bos I thought is was fertility not vitality. I could be wrong… maybe both?

    I’m one example that fluoridation has no impact on fertility, although fertility seems to have an adverse impact on the benefits of fluoridation.

    At least it seemed that way to me.

    Good for you! The dentist is not getting rich off me either. I’m 37 and have never had a cavity or anything. I’ve moved states in the last year and my new dentist wanted to know if I was raised on a farm because my teeth were so strong. (Apparently from the drinking of fresh whole milk or something. I do not know I’m a city girl!!)I hope your boys got those good dental genes!

  12. Jennifer Says:

    You are lucky!!

    Alice…nail…head.

  14. mjf Says:

    I went to the dentist a year ago and on my most recent visit found out I have three cavities. I second alice’s remark.

  15. AT Says:

    Boy, I bet you guys could make some good wine out of those sour grapes…

  16. Bullet Says:

    Gotta thank damama for those teeth. Seee…it’s our fantastic genes that makes the ladies (uhhh, and guys) crazy about us.

  17. Kuni Says:

    I used to be like that, until I had to go on meds that dried out my mouth…now I have to struggle to keep my mouth purdy. :(

    My partner, on the other hand, just went to the dentist for the first time in seven years, and he’s cavity free.

    CURSE YOU BOTH!

  18. amy Says:

    you beat me. last time i went was in 95, in Cali. Dr Kane. i don’t miss him… is that wrong?

  19. LGirl Says:

    So tell us how often do you floss and what toothpaste do you use?

  20. Julie Says:

    Oh wow, snap,, we were doing the same thing yesterday!I had gone for years and finally went and I had a good check up too!
    Zinx! :) Good for us! I even admitted to the dentist I am a midnight eater!

    The last time I let someone mess with my teeth was when I got my wisdom teeth out in ‘99. I got two chipped teeth right now and I don’t want to go back — I know that just will look at me and say boat payment — uh I mean crown x2.

  22. Jenn Says:

    You, like I, are very very lucky! I do go to the dentist every six months but have never ever had a cavity in my 32 years of life. People sure do look at me funny when I tell them that. Keep up the good teeth!

  23. The Hearn Says:

    So not fair. My wife hadn’t been since just before we were married (going on 6.5 years now) and as a result she’s got something like 874 calories, which is costing me something like a thousand fucking dollars.

    On a per calorie basis this is kind of a deal, I guess, but on a “me not getting my big screen TV this spring in time for opening day” basis, it’s pretty shatty.
