Beautiful And Invisible

So I know I’m a candidate for the Schick Center program for DDS-types who can’t stop talking about Invisalign.

So I know I’m a candidate for the Schick Center program for DDS-types who can’t stop talking about Invisalign.

And yeah, I took another Certification II advanced Invisalign course last Friday and I think my trip to Costa Rica took less time than the adventure to Costa Mesa. I got wasted on sports-talk radio on the looong early morning drive down to the OC and by the time I turned around for the grim journey home even the sports-talk guys were pretty much sports-talked out.

The PM sports jocks moved onto to some social topics that kept me safely interested and alert while I was averaging about 15mph through outposts like Tustin, Placentia, and Fullerton. And relationship talk can get fairly hazardous in the company of women but there’s basically no risk attached to that variety of conversation amongst a bunch of primitive male chronic sports fans.

The topic was “Why wouldn’t you call her back after the first date?” And since I was in the privacy of my own slow speed chase-mobile on the road to nowhere and I had the shades on disguising the bloodhound eyelids that just don’t go with the words “first” and “date”, I actively listened in.

There were the usual Seinfeld variations such as “She used to go out with Newman!” or “I’m in the unfortunate position of having to consider other people’s feelings.” And there were others like “She wouldn’t talk” (really) or “She wouldn’t stop talking” or “She smoked” or “She wouldn’t stop talking…about her Ex or her cat,” or “she laughs like hyena” and yada…yada…yada. And of course, none of those embarrassing trite excuses apply to yours truly.

But then the old single radio guy threw in, “Needy does it every time.” And hey, I get it…totally. Needy and selfish (me) are sort of like oil and water, or Palin and the English language (or Katie Couric), or bruin and football; they just don’t mix.

But then the old guy went a little deeper; “If any woman is that crazy about me after just one date, I figure there’s gotta be something wrong with her.”

Suddenly, I was back at the Hilton in Costa Mesa and you’ll probably never move me outa the back row again and it’s not that dangerous going back in time when you’re only movin 5mph up The 57.

So Invisalign has helped make beautiful smiles for some 4 million folks who’d have probably never opted for metal braces and even though the approach is the most awesome dental innovation I’ve ever seen, it’s getting exponentially even better. Aside from making cock-eyed smiles beautiful, Invisalign goes a long way toward helping mouths function effectively while also restoring the natural self-cleansing nature of properly aligned teeth.

We’ve actually provided Invisalign for folks who were so high risk regarding tooth decay and gum disease that traditional braces would have probably caused some tooth loss. So if you want straighter teeth, just ask. Straight teeth also mean improved oral health.

Anyway, after staking out a spot in the back of the conference room, three of the hottest lady dentists I’ve ever seen sat down in the row right in front of me. And it’s a shame they were all so freakin needy…in my dreams.

Seemed like I just blinked and next thing you know I was cruisin’ through Diamond Bar at a brisk 30mph pace…and channeling George Costanza. And if awesome lady DDSs are gonna travel in packs because they need to learn more about Invisalign, then I’m committing my continuing education efforts to the needy.

Ask about Invisalign. And you can call any time.
