Is anyone else obcessed with teeth?

Question:

I am obcessed with teeth. It's the first thing I notice. I have had to stopped eating with some of our friends because I don't like the way their teeth are cared for. Also, my husband doesn't care for his teeth and I find myself constantly looking in his mouth. I have had to beg him to get his teeth cleaned. It hurts his feelings, but I cannot help myself. His eat are not really even bad. They are just not perfect! I find myself sickened by people with stained and broken teeth. Is anyone else like this?

Answers:
I have to admit, I am a bit guilty of this myself. But I often try to separate myself from my job as often as I can. I make a conscious effort not to stare at peoples teeth when I am not at work. I could drive myself nuts walking around thinking of all the different things that I could do to fix up people's smiles! The important thing is not to judge people by their teeth, Dr. Sam hit upon this, not every one has or has had access to good care. Trying to fix years of neglect often can get quite expensive and not everyone can afford to do it. Also, many people are self-conscious of their teeth, especially if they know that they have problems already. Try and take it easy on them and try to make them feel good about themselves!

no! i hate mine....i wish my parents took me more to the dentist, maybe my teeth would be perfect now......i cant afford to get them fixed!
