In the studio this week, Alison Rice and an expert on dental health reveal the startling facts about those, sparkling pearly gates that can make or break your career as a model or spoil that gourmet dinner. Under discussion are the horrific figures showing how many people do not own a toothbrush, or for that matter, their own teeth! And well-researched evidence is produced to show that by following a few basic rules in teeth care, you might never need to have another filling. Alison also recalls the origins of dentistry, the days when having a tooth extracted meant pieces of string tied to door handles!
