Toothsome Subject

“Why is it called a toothbrush?”
(he asked rhetorically)
as I use it to brush more than one
it makes no sense to me
surely 'teethbrush' would be correct
for dental care and gums
so from now on that's what I'll use
to remove food residue between my teeth
while I still have some

Crocodile Symbiosis

The crocodile smile is such a pretty sight
as the Egyptian Plover keeps his teeth
pearly white and shiny bright
"Open wide," are words heard from the bird
his dental hygienist who picks and pecks
then eats the meaty spicks and specks
and as the crocodile sheds old choppers
(no tears)
so the avian's not unemployed or at a loss
the croc constantly grows

Darn 
Dentist 
Dreadful deed 
Damned if you do 
Dah! Damned if you don’t 
Disturbing drill din daunts 
Drat! Delectable doughnuts 
Digging deep childhood cavities 
Done! Drear disposition diminished 
Displaying the dazzling disarming smile

A tiger tooth puller named Keith
Growled, Donkey I must check your teeth
Donkey started to bray
Saying, "Don’t block my way
I’m needing urgent pain relief"!

Dentist appointments cause me to linger,
Someplace betwixt dread and the blackness,
Fright’s version of despair, 
Wistful and aching with silent prayers,
Silent, silence, soundless – still,
All the reasons, the responses, the requisites,
For those hours, endless times
Spent, losing my mind, 
With mouth opened to oblige
Fingers pressed against my gums,
Forcing the enemy’s needles,
Taste of lidocaine, breathing in and out,
Through

I went to the dentist
It had been awhile
Yet after much drilling
Followed by filling
The bills heaped in a pile

He said come twice a year
Or try to make it three
Brush three times a day
And floss the right way
And maybe just maybe

You’ll be a dental star
Which sounded bizarre
But did what I was told
Though received a scold
From that dental

Premium MemberTheir Teeth Hurt

If you are fortunate to be able to have you and your
family's dental needs taken care of-
thank the good Lord when you pray,
because many in our midst cannot make a
dental appointment on any given day.
Men, women, children are struggling with
tooth decay, their teeth hurt,
dentists out there, I'm not trying to be curt.

The high cost of

An Unusual Morning After a Dental Appointment

little birds flying around my legs and feet
unless i got some food, no way do they want to meet
i enjoy them in flight, being all free
oh, Sweet Mama, how i wish that was me
the water is their seductress as well as their mirror
it is within this much needed Peace where i see things so much

My Dental Horn Haiku

Swing and Sway with Tooth Decay (Sammy Kaye)

we would swing and sway
had heard about tooth decay
was to our dismay

do need dental care
at mouth she started to stare
teeth beyond compare

did have his consent
would know what my dentist meant
cavities prevent

we found a fable
dentist lives in a stable
goes to work when able

his office is plush

Dental Torture Blues

Sitting in the dental chair
Undergoing dental surgery
While the dentist probes,
And tortures me
With his instruments of pain,

The Frank Zappa song plays over and over
The torture never stops
The torture never stops.

And I think of the mad dentist
In Little House of Horrors
The Jack Nicolson character
Who screams Pain is good

As he assaults his patients
Doing root canals
Without anesthesia

And so I

Premium MemberDental Doodad

There once was an old geezer named Bob
who loved to munch on corn on the cob.
But since he wore false teeth
kernels got underneath:
and so he'd turn them down with a sob.


Sitting on the can, he read an ad
touting a brand new fancy doodad: 
So he pulled up his pants
got some dental implants,
and chomps more corn

My dentist’s such a sadistic guy
No injection, I emit a cry
Open mouthed at his bill
Pain is much worse until
Quite slyly I knee him in his fly!
