Do you think the british have bad teeth because they are descended from immigrants more than other nations, i.e mongrels

So I assume from your comments you know what bad teeth look like, having them yourself?
England does have a NHS, which includes free dental care, however trying to find a dentist that takes NHS patients is like trying to find a needle in a haystack. You are best going private within the UK for this service, therefore we don't have bad teeth, having to pay for this service!

Maybe you're a descendent of an aemoba.
Anyway mongrels are more hardy. Look at dogs. Pedigree dogs die younger and have health problems whereas mongrels can live to a ripe old age and don't seem to get many health problems.

Interesting how an American can accuse Brits of being mongrels, yes we are, hence the level of intelligence, you are obviously a pedigree inbred from the bayous who was fathered by a brother and sister, doubt you`ve got any teeth yourself. Can you play duelling banjos and were you an extra on Deliverance?

no! we have bad teeth because we are stupid enough to give health care to the whole world at the expense of our own. and British is spelt with a capital B. Briton is a kind nation full of good hearted, sharing people that deserve a little respect. why would you want to post this???? i would sooner bad teeth than a diseased head. by the way, i am British. 9 generations that i know of. and i am 59 years of age and still! have all of my teeth. we use em for eating mate. not as a social f*cking statement

No! Bad teeth with British has to do with their appetite for sugar. Get a can of Campbell soup made in the UK, you'll notice a difference. It's sweeter than in the US. But, bad teeth are not limited to British. Plenty in the US where by age 40 it is said that more than half the population has lost more than half their teeth. Much has to do with whether a person brushes twice daily and flosses.

I have known people from everywhere who have bad teeth.
Most of the ones I know come from Eastern Europe where they had social medicine.Just such a hassle to see a doctor.
It could be many reasons from diet to the water as well has how often they brush and floss.
It is not limited to just England.

But thats not true, we dont ALL have bad teeth. its just a stereotype. i bet there is just the same 'ratio' of americans with bad teeth as there are brits with bad teeth. its just were noticed more for some reason. I like americans, but i dont like the way some think that we have bad teeth. :-D Oh yeah, and its no thanks to the NHS...

Strange how fate has an habit of rearing up and kicking you in the @rse isn't it.
I often think back to my descendants (who arrived in England just over a thousand years ago) as I trawl through the yellow pages trying in vain to find a dentist and curse them for not keeping going in their longship to the USA. Total b@stards with no thought for their descendants!!!
But then again, I also blame my ancestors of 200 years ago for not nicking enough sheep to get transported to Australia - I could have been lying on Bondi beach now!! - B@STARDS!!

well I'm 47 have my own teeth and I'm British perhaps I'm a exception to your rule. i think you may be a few century's out. i guess your saying Americans are an exception to the rule, although i doubt any of them actually have any of their own teeth left. the tooth fairy takes one and leaves an artificial one in its place.
