There is a rather enduring rumour that George Washington actually had wooden teeth. Of course he didn’t really. His teeth were mostly made from hippopotamus bone which is a very different thing. However the teeth thing must have been something of an issue because he made sure that his six white horses had their teeth brushed every day!
Somehow this, and I know this is much more my problem than his, always makes me think of the idea of having wallpaper for teeth. You can actually get patterned mouth guards but what about patterned teeth? I think it would be a great conversation starter.
To this end I have commissioned a range of tooth wallpaper which is now available in all good dentists. I’ve even been able to get celebrity support in the shape of some of the best grinners in the business, Tony Blair and Richard Branson.
Well, I wooden have thought that was a very good idea.
