Quotes of the Day

A toothpaste’s ideal ingredients would be nonabrasive silica, enough sodium fluoride to strengthen teeth, and no glycerin. In the late 1950s, the original Crest formulation passed randomized clinical trials and showed it could stop cavities before they start. It has been my toothpaste of choice for three decades. If you have gum recession, be sure to avoid any toothpaste that contains glycerin, salt, peroxide, coconut oil, or baking soda, since these can upset biofilm health by dissolving its foundational proteins. If you have a dry mouth or sensitivity, my advice is to avoid all the pastes advertised for sensitive teeth. [2018] - Ellie Phillips

If you are in a club and see women walking nearby and wave them over to you, nine times out of ten they will come right over (provided you hadn't shown yourself to be passively standing in a corner for the past hour). You could open with the always reliable "Hi, are you having a good time?" and then transition into conversation. [2012] - Christopher Gray

It's usually best, whenever possible, to save teeth rather than extract them too quickly. Implants are always at high risk for periodontal gum disease. Regular dental cleanings are also riskier for people with implants, as particles of titanium from the screw can be shaved off by hygiene instrumentation and cause tissue reactions that are similar in nature-and impact-to an exaggerated auto-immune response. You may want to ask your hygienist if she or he will use what is referred to in the oral health industry as a special dental implant scaler to avoid this kind of implant scratching or possible complications. [2025] - Ellie Phillips

The most important job of an entrepreneur is to design the business before there is a business. [2005] - Robert T. Kiyosaki
