I once read about the Chinese trying to generate enough life force to
get a third set of teeth (using the herb fo-ti).  I sure would like to
get rid of my dental work alias my second set of teeth!  But I'm
thinking I'm stuck with them, and it's an improvement over what was
going on with my teeth before the dental work (in my days of dietary
ignorance). I am of the opinion that good dental hygiene is important
for everyone (raw foodists eating carrots too).  Mary Jackson
