An open letter to human teeth:
Dear teeth,
First off, I want to state that, through all of what I am about to say, I love you. I don’t want to be ineffectively gumming my food, or having to hand make my food into a small, swallowable pulverized pulp. Despite that, you sort are terrible. There are a few ways that you actually terrible, instead, you are terrible at continuing work.
Unlike many animals, humans have a limited amount teeth. Why, human teeth, do you not act like the shark’s teeth, with an infinite amount of replaceable teeth, or like the manatee’s teeth, which come in in an infinite choochoo train of molars, or like the teeth of a rodent, which continuously grow? Instead, you only regrow once. If I were to stop brushing my teeth, that would be it. One by one, my teeth would soften and fall out. The worst thing isn’t that you are non-regenerable, but that you seem to melt when faced with your main task, food. Despite the fact that you don’t melt or burn until insane temperatures (of which I forget, but I know are to high for your other body parts to survive). Why if you have this ability, can't you eat lots of candy, and be fine in the next couple weeks (without brushing and flossing).
Also, why are you sometimes crooked, I dislike braces a lot, so if people could just have straight teeth, that would be great. And wisdom teeth. To wisdom teeth all I have to say is : WHYYYYYYYY
Love,
Daniel
