Fluoridation is a communist plot. I notice the Russians have about the same caliber of dental work as the Brits. I used to work with a guy who has recently immigrated from the old USSR. His dental work was like the old jokes about a redneck with one tooth. And he was one of the higher-ups, a former (literally) rocket scientist with the old Soviet space program. Oh...three weeks after hitting the US his mother filed for Social Security benefits. |

Uh, have you ever seen the condition of the average Brit's teeth? Speaking as an average Brit: * I am 31. * I have no fillings * I have no tooth problems (including wisdom tooth problems). Mostly, this was caused by having good dental health as a child, and I'm sure flouridized water helped. While I've seen some people with terrible teeth here, I've seen just as many people with terrible teeth in the US. There was even an article in AOPA Magazine about a bunch of doctors who fly in the Appalacians (with amongst other things, a DC-3) who have to pull out an awful lot of rotten teeth. -- Dylan Smith, Castletown, Isle of Man Flying: http://www.dylansmith.net Frontier Elite Universe: http://www.alioth.net "Maintain thine airspeed, lest the ground come up and smite thee" |

many people with terrible teeth in the US. Yep. I don't see this as a money problem, or a social problem, but more of a cultural thing. Dental care is easy. Brushing your teeth is easy, and cheap. Having parents that force you to practice good oral hygiene isn't -- apparently regardless of what part of the world you live in. -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |
