I would like to state categorically that I DID NOT go out with Suicide Dave. I’m not English but I lived in Manchester for many many years. And the Manc I married is a missing a couple but the teeth he does have are pretty nice, thank you very much….
One bad infection can turn systemic in a heartbeat and destroy your heart valves [yes, really] or cause strokes [yes, really]. This is no joke. Some dentists will work out a payment plan with you. Spread out the work over time. Whatever it takes.
I know it’s unpleasant, I really hate going. I’m a big baby about it. But if you had seen the damage I saw caused by lack of good regular dental treatment, you would not ignore my words.
Forget the superficial treatments – get the fundamental stuff done.
Funny, mshook. I too have been the impetus to save someone else’s rotting teeth. But the teeth was just visible evidence of deeper problems with responsibility and it didn’t work out…
Don’t get me started on a good chip butty with salty butter, a dash of malt vinegar and made from a crusty bloomer. mshook are you a brit too? brownstoner seems to be infested with brits.
“but the teeth he does have are pretty nice”
You sound like a perfect optimist mshook, ready to see the cap half full anywhere!

Blimey!
there are a LOT of Brits on this blog….
(I am not one!)
WHO or WHAT!
Having grown up with Cadbury’s it does have a special place in my heart but even I have to acknowledge that it is garbage compared to good chocolate.
I echo gemini’s comment about Swiss or Belgian chocolate being the best, although this is pretty good http://www.greenandblacks.com/
Whatever the source, it needs to be at least 70%.
