Well this is about something a little unpleasant.  actually quite unpleasant.  No not a horror flick, not a bad accident.  The title is quite accurate however.

I went and got my teeth cleaned today.

I do brush my teeth.  not enough.  I know what floss is.  Really strong string.  You really have to trust your dental hygienist as they use finely pointed steel and pull really hard, inside your mouth.

They also did a check of my gum detachment.  That’s a really fun thing too.  they put a metal probe between your gum and tooth until it hits bottom and note how deep it went in.  repeat for both sides of every tooth.

It feels, well, not too nice.

So today i got a new weapon in the fight against plaque.  Wish me luck, in taking better care of the chompers.
