The grill. My chicklets.
The toofusses, my choppers,
got cleaning today.

Pickety pick pick
goes the pointy thing, as water
splashes in my nose.

I close my eyes as
the whirring starts, I find my
self gripping the chair.

Sugar is the worst.
Compounds with bacteria
to cause tooth decay.
—-
So if nothing else,
please take care of your teeth
Cause they can kill you.
—-
Just floss, water pik,
brush and rinse religiously
for a healthy you.
