We know making time in your busy life's to see the dentist is difficult for some, but for you others, we don't think you see the importance of a healthy mouth. There are many health problems related to bad oral hygiene, including heart disease. I guess when your not in pain, its hard to see the importance. What's crazy about your mouth is that allot of the times you won't have pain, and perio disease is called the silent killer. We've heard some wacky excuses in our years, so here's a list of just a few. We thought you would find this humorous.

2. I have a meeting.
3. I just got a flat tire, and I am on the freeway
4. My dog has fleas, he's going to the vet.
