True enough - In Canada we can always tell if someone is British by the state of their teeth. Sad, but true. I'v always wondered why a country that seems so civilized would be populated by people with rotten teeth.

I have a British friend who insists that when Brits cross breed with Canadians, the children will have terrible problem with tooth decay and will probably need braces as well.

Very odd!!! I'm sure this isn't true but maybe the Brits just don't have the same standards as N. Americans where a big, toothy grin will open many doors.
