It’s truly M and probably P, but I just got back from the dentist and they said “See you in six months!” In other words, my teeth are OK, my gums are finally OK after a few dicey rounds of “Your teeth are OK, but the gums might have to go” and all’s well in my mouth now.
You know the old classic joke along the lines of “your teeth are great, but the gums are gone to heck.” I finally got a dentist that actually showed me how to floss. (There’s more than just sliding it down between teeth)
Ultimate result is my shrinking gums stopped shrinking.
