I’ve been thinking

 

 

I’ll try my 12-second toothbrush theory out on my dentist to see what he thinks about it.  I’ve been meaning to abuse him anyway.  When we first got here to the Rio Grande Valley, I got my teeth cleaned in Mexico to see what that was like.  A lot of people get their dental work done south of the border for a fraction of the cost of doing it on this side.  I would describe the experience in Mexico as more like waterboarding than dentistry.  As part of the package deal though, $25, I also got a full checkup included, and they found five cavities.  I declined any more work and returned to my regular dentist without saying anything about that experiment.  I’m not so sure this stateside dentist is all that good though.  All these years later, he still hasn’t detected those five cavities.
