ON ONE of my mother's visits to her dentist - she was 65 years old at the time - he said, "Mrs. Hopgood, your teeth are good for the next 50 years." To which she replied, "What will they do without me?"
MRS. SINCLAIR arrived at my dental office claiming she had a one-o'clock appointment. My receptionist disagreed. Mrs. Sinclair insisted someone had phoned that it was time for her yearly examination and cleaning, and she had made an appointment. When we said we always send out reminders before we call, she left in a huff. Within an hour Mrs. Sinclair phoned. Sheepishly, she told us that when she got home she found a man waiting on her steps. He had come from the oil company to give her furnace its yearly examination and cleaning.

MY COUSIN, who had just opened his dental practice, was dismayed when his mother told him she was embroidering a Bible verse to hang on the wall of his waiting room. "Mom, you just don't put Bible verses in dentists' offices," he groaned. His mother assured him that he would like it. He did. The verse his mother had chosen was Psalms 81:10:" . . . open thy mouth wide, and I will fill it."
A CORK BOARD at my dentist's office is covered with letters and drawings by his younger patients. One patient decided to write a note of his own. A few days later, smack in the middle of drawings and letters, this note done in green crayon appeared:
"Dear Dr. Perr,
Thank you for taking such good care of my teeth. I am already 63 years old and, thanks to you, still have three of my own left. I luv you, Morton."
