Charm: Daily Duties for Dental Daintiness
Dear Reader,
To-day we will cover the most delicate topic of dental hygiene. I know this is a most intimate issue, but feel that we must discuss it without delay. A lady can be most appealing wearing the latest chic fashions, properly fitted underneath with the most advanced foundation garments, of course, have a fresh looking skin, a thoughtfully applied make-up, and a hair set that is lovely. However, all of that having been said, one scent of a bad mouth odor will detract from an otherwise dainty display. I say, dear reader, why spoil all of your hard work you spent looking your best by not caring for your pearly whites? It is just not prudent. I feel that to-day, people are in such a rush to get about, dental care just falls by the wayside. Don't forsake your mouth and teeth. Here are a few tips to keep your mouth happy and smiling, and your breath at its most lovely:
1. Brush your teeth with a good ribbon dental cream at least twice a day (don't forget the evening session!). Always perform this action before going out to meet with others, at a bridge luncheon, for example, as well.
2. Floss at each evening session. How can you go to bed, dear reader, with the possibility that you still have remnants of the days eateries lurking in your mouth? How awful. See if you dentist does not notice that you have forgotten this crucial habit!
3. If you have "bad" teeth, don't let them detract from your potential loveliness. See an orthodontic specialist at once!
4. Carry mints with you at all times. You never know when you may meet "Mr. Right"--you don't want to have bad breath at that time now, do you?
5. Carry a snip of parsley or some antacid tablets with you in your handbag. These will prove to be quite handy in the event of a garlic or onion emergency.
6. Visit your dentist regularly for a routine examination. I recommend at least twice a year. Be sure to take care of any dental problems (caries, etc.) right away to prevent further deterioration of your daintiness.
After you have followed these steps, dear reader, you will not only maximize your dental health potential, but you will also be confident that you are putting forth a charming and attractive appearance.
Until next time...

you know - i never brush my teeth at night and i never get cavitees--and i have almost all of my own teeth. one is grayish yellow, and the other fizzes sometimes, but that's not bad, eh?
Dear anonymous,
I must say, you are doing quite well for somone who does not pay close attention to matters of dental daintiness. However, you should brush your teeth at night, especially if you are married--what man wants to say, "goodnight" to a mouth riddled with the odors of the day?
Now, as for your other dental issues, I would see a dental specialist at once, especially for the tooth that fizzes. I have not yet heard of this problem, but I had an aunt who had a mouth which fizzed, but I believe it was due to her frequent visits to Mr. Jack Daniels. Perhaps you have been too frequently visiting one of your cousins?
Until next time...
