  I too have to ask: backwards? A doc does X ray every day, you get ONE.

  Backwards? There is nothing backwards about these memes.

    If you floss regularly your gums won’t bleed, source: me. My gums never bleed at the dentist, but they used to when I sucked more at dental self-care.

    For the X-ray example, think about it this way: the doctor is like a bartender. One drink isn’t going to hurt you. The bartender can definitely serve you one drink. But if the bartender had to drink a part of a drink every time they served someone, that would become pretty dangerous for them indeed.

      Many people can’t floss. Me personally, I got experimental orthodontics in the '80s and they filed between my teeth and flossing has been excruciating ever since. I still have all of my teeth though, minus two wisdom teeth that were removed to create space (it wasn’t enough space)

        I’m not sure many people were dental guinea-pigs though. Sucks that you got fucked by it though.
