Shoes, Ships, and Sealing Wax: This may have been why I quit going to the dentist

This may have been why I quit going to the dentist

Six months ago I went to the dentist for the first time in ten years. It wasn't that horrible, so when they called to tell me to come in again, I figured it couldn't hurt.

So apparently, it is possible to brush your teeth too much. I knew my gums were receding (I didn't go to the dentist for ten years; that tarter was stronger than diamond), but I didn't realize I was making them recede more with my aggressive scrubbing.

And I really did not know that it was possible to run out of gum.

And I really, really did not know that there are people out there who charge lots of money to cut off flaps from the roof of your mouth and sew them to your receded gum to grow new gum.
