Friday Five: Dental Edition

This week's theme suggested by Reverend Mother. She and Cheesehead have both recently gone to the dentist with various oral maladies.

1. Are you a regular patron of dentists' offices?
   dentist? what is this "dentist" thing you speak of?
   
   I haven't been to the dentist in over *mumble* years. I think my teenage experience with my orthodontist scarred me for life.


2. Whatever became of your wisdom teeth?
   I'm not sure they ever came in.


3. Favorite thing to eat that's BAAAAAD for your teeth.
   [Sings] "I like candy ...." And cake. And chocolate. And sweets. And ....


4. Ever had oral surgery? Commiserate with me.
   I did have a root canal, sometime in my late teens or twenties. As I recall, it was not quite as traumatic as advertised.
   


5. "I'd rather have a root canal than _________________."
   I'm speechless. Guess I'd have another one, if my life depended on it. Or if I were in severe pain. I'm a wimp that way.

Bonus: Does your dentist recommend Trident?
I refer you to my response to the first question. However, I have started chewing a stick of Ice Breakers after lunch. A friend got me started on this habit.
