At A Floss For Words

A hygiene-minded FrontBurnervian passes along news of yet another questionable survey about cities and rankings and health issues. This time it’s Men’s Health determining the cities with best and worst teeth. Dallas is 87th in the top 100. Lubbock, if you’re curious, is dead last. The survey was determined by annual dentist visits, canceled appointments, use of flouride, and regular flossers in any given metro area. As for Lubbock’s low score, no one seems to know for sure the root of the problem. Hi-yo.

    There’s so much natural fluoride in the water in West Texas that natives can bite nails in half with their bare teeth. Somebody give “Men’s Health” a clue.

FrontBurner® has been called the best blog in town (recently, and repeatedly), a snarky celebration of ignorance, and a daily conversation about Dallas among the editors of D Magazine.
