My dentist sends a reminder for check-ups with a little poem in it. I got there half an hour early in very hot weather yesterday afternoon, and decided to write my own little ditty and license it to them free of charge to use. 20 minutes later, this was scribbled up on a spare sheet of paper given to me by the receptionist.
THE ROAD TO HELL IS PAVED WITH FOOD IN DENTURES
Mon-20-Feb-2023
If you give your teeth a checkup,
long before they’re wearing down;
You might well prevent a filling,
maybe even save a crown.
We can clean the built up calculus,
and stop the spreading plaque;
So your mouth won’t feel uncomfortable,
while sleeping in the dark.
We use local anesthetics,
and you will not feel the drilling,
In the case of situations
that could need a buckle filling.
If you’re needing explanations,
we can show you on the screen.
We shall test your bite with X-rays,
much more clearly to be seen.
We’ve got Hi-Caps up and running,
so it’s easier to pay;
With some help from your provider paying us that very day.
Our receptionists are friendly,
and they send reminder text,
On the day before we see you.
Why not book a check-up next?
