Went from there to dentist, appointment we man.

Our long-time hygienist Ana G. had left, no one knew where man.  :( 

We got Ana V., had her once before man.

She ripped into that plaque like a chica possessed, attack she man.

We have not experienced such mouth-pain in some time, ow ow ow OW OW man.

The office was out of the Zoom laser-whitening kits, ran out man.

We instead got some liquid applied with a light shone on it, don't know what this was man.

It took longer than the Zoom, note we man.

It had the same effect and cost $Many less, note we man.

At the end, we inspected our bright teeth and exclaimed, "Oh, our eyes, blinded we man!", si man.

Gracias, Bro G man.  This rubia proved to be unstable in correspondence, so we jettisoned her, bye man.

If you want to be helpful, what do you think was done here, huh man?

 

Well, as far as the rubia, it looks like you dumped her...

 

As to the dental visit, it looks like Ana V. was aggressive.  Maybe she thought you liked it rough...LOL

 

There are an abundance of tooth whitening brands.  They all use a form of peroxide, carbamide or hydrogen.  Most all in office whitening is hydrogen peroxide of varying strengths.  I usually use Opalescence or Pola whitening in the office.  Basically Zoom has the name because they were in it early and advertised to dentists heavily and promoted using light to try to enhance the whitening.

Same here, and will be even worse after the new year. 

Going to be awful here until late April or early May.  Sigh.

Give a man a fish and he will eat for a day.  Deport him and you never have to feed him again.

I started out with nothing, and I still have most of it.

I went bald but I kept my comb.  I just couldn't part with it.

My name is not Richard Edward but my friends still call me DickEd

If your pet has a bladder infection, urine trouble.

"Watch out where the huskies go, and don't you eat that yellow snow."

I fired myself from cleaning the house. I didn't like my attitude and I got caught drinking on the job.

My kid has A.D.D... and a couple of F's

Carrots improve your vision.  Alcohol doubles it.

A dung beetle walks into a bar and asks " Is this stool taken?"

Breaking news.  They're not making yardsticks any longer.

Hemorrhoids?  Shouldn't they be called Assteroids?

If life gives you melons, you might be dyslexic.

If you suck at playing the trumpet, that may be why.
