Everyone likes to check out statistics. And since people who are usually stats freaks — baseball fans — have been deprived of much of their livelihood this bizarre spring and early summer (including no spring training in Florida!), at least we can check out some statistics on dental health. Don’t smirk. Dr. Brown loves these […]

There is an odd irony in the U.S. We fought to break free from the monarchy of Britain. But now, 250 years later, we can’t get enough of the place. Downton Abbey was a huge hit on public TV. The Crown is one of Netflix’s bigger hits. And every Royal Wedding finds millions of Americans glued to their screen

If you’re missing most or all of your teeth, it can be a real drag on your self-esteem. You consciously avoid smiling and opening your mouth so that others can’t see your missing teeth. You likely avoid eating all sorts of foods, even necessary nuts, fruits, and vegetables, simply because you can’t chew them. You

Even though we didn’t get to see our usual parade of spring training teams this year in Florida, that doesn’t mean we have to stop chewing gum, does it? We could watch old games on MLB Network.

It’s interesting, sort of. (Well, not really to Dr. Brown…) Most people probably pay more attention to the purported oil change timeline of their cars than they do to the maintenance of their teeth.

If you check out YouTube too often, you may be under the impression that a word with the root of “ginger” is somehow tongue-in-cheek poking fun at people with red hair. Not so with “gingivitis.” It’s a perfect word for an ad man like Don Draper or David Ogilvy. It sounds ominous, scary. And if

It’s easy to take modern technology for granted. You’re on a plane 35,000 feet up in the stratosphere and you hear someone complaining to the flight attendant that their internet wi-fi connection is hiccupping. You’re on a golf course and your phone pings a satellite to tell you the exact distance to the flag on

Root canal. There we said it. Wait, don’t run from the room screaming. If there is a dental procedure that needs to hire a high-powered New York PR firm, it’s the much-feared root canal. People think this procedure, which is critical to save a tooth from being extracted, is something left over from the Dark
