To Floss or Not?

I assume you are reading this and thinking what and odd question... Let me tell you why it really isn't and odd question. Last night after dinner I was flossing my teeth, just like I do almost every night, well last night as I finished not only did the floss leave my mouth but one of my fillings did also! At first it was more of a shock than pain so I figured it is okay "I'll call a dentist Monday" I told myself. This morning I woke up and within about an hour I knew waiting was not really going to be an option. So I called my Mom to see what to do, you see Mark and I haven't seen a dentist since we were both single and on different insurance plans so I was stumped at who to see. Well my Mom does have the answer to everything including this dilemma. Her cousin, Brandon Schvaneveldt, just bought a dental practice in Logan so she suggested I call him after checking with my insurance company. After confusing a insurance worker by trying to find a Schvaneveldt, he finally found a "Schvandevelt" (as he pronounded it) I figured that was him since no one but family members can pronounce the name as we do. With a quick call into his office I was set up for an appointment today. Now I sit on my couch with a half numb face wondering if it was really worth flossing last night or not.....
back to my original question do I floss or not?

I say not floss also! :)

And about the name thing, it always works to prove who I am, because as the teller at the bank said one day when I forgot my ID, "I am supposed to ask for two alternate forms of ID, but if you can spell that you have to be who you say you are!"

Ouch! I hate flossing! I agree with Shannon, it is definately over rated but probably necessary! :)
