I freaking hate them but I go every 6 months like clockwork. I have one today.
I bet a lot of you have horrible oral hygiene, you don't floss and your breath stinks.
Amirite?
I don't like dental appts. either but like you I keep them because I like having a beautiful smile more than I dislike sitting in that goddamn chair.
My teeth are pearly white like the soaring peaks of the Rocky mountains. and my breath smells like a rocky mountain stream. (especially after a Coors)
The only time I have been to the dentist in my life was 8 years ago and it was for aesthetic reasons, not because there was anything actually wrong with my teeth other than crowding and causing them to become crooked. I had every one of my teeth which they said is uncommon because most people have problems and end up having the back ones pulled at some point. So I had 8 teeth pulled and braces for a year and a half and that's the first and probably the last time I'll go again unless I get a cavity.
Just brushing everyday has managed to keep mine in fine shape for 38 years.

I'm off to the damn appointment. It takes them 15 minutes just to do the stupid pocket measuring. Every 6 months. Grrrrr.
My dentist is Adam Sandlers sister. Really she's fun.
I think that pocket measuring is a bunch of shit just to get money out of you unless you actually do have periodontal problems. If your gums aren't bleeding and they're nice and tight around your teeth it's probably safe to say your pockets are just fine.
Actually, since my wife and I went to electric toothbrushes, dental appts are no longer filled will fear and trepidation.
My gum line has ceased receding and my dental hygienist is a little frickin hottie.
I like it when she allows her breasts to linger on my arm.
Believe me, I'm there every 6 months like clockwork!
Bet you didn't know I could perve out in a dental thread, did ya?

GET OUT OF MY HEAD!
(I don't brush as often as I should either, and I do need to find a dentist that accepts medicaid and have my teeth looked at. I have at least one that needs dome attention. Its a little jagged and sometimes cuts my lip)

Seriously? That's cool.
She's Jewish, does she wear a hazmat like suit when she works on you?

I'm free!
Some people just have better teeth. My husband goes to the dentist fairly regularly but doesn't take near as good care of his teeth as I do mine and he's never had a cavity.
I got most of cavities in my youth. Kids are lucky today that they get sealants.
I have managed to go 33 1⁄2 years without ever having a cavity. I am going to the dentist tonight. I do not floss, ever...but I brush and use mouthwash.
People don't necessarily go to the dentist because there is a problem, they often go to prevent problems from occurring. Checkups are important.

Yeah, but can't you see if they are any problems starting and then go to the dentist? That would be like being able to see what's going on in your colon and still going for regular colonoscopies just for the hell of it.
I believe in checkups. I don't feel any lumps in my breasts but I still get them checked regularly. I don't have any issues with my car but she gets a checkup too. Check Check Check
We go for a cleaning every 6 months. I hate the debtist though. I brush and floss daily.

I wonder why I asked you if she wore a hazemat-like suit when she was taking care of you. What the fuck am I thinking sometimes.
Does she make you laugh? Does she ever talk about her brother? Is it common knowledge that she's Adam's sister? Normally when I catch a buzz this time of day I become even more quiet, obviously not today. BlahBlahBlahBlah.

There are pics all over the office. David Spade has been there. She likes me I think because when I get nervous I really start goofing off. And dentists make me nervous! Sometimes just spraying that water on a sensitive tooth makes me say arggg ack k-k-k- arghhhh ack! and slap her leg.
Ha! David Spade is a very funny guy.
She would like you for your sense of humor alone, you goofy mutha. Her brother says the same kind of shit you do.
