"People who smoke cigarettes, they say:

“You don’t know how hard it is to quit smoking.”

Yes, I do. It’s as hard as it is to start flossing." - Mitch Hedberg

    After a couple of good cleanings and a few months of using a good toothbrush and flossing, I can say that my gums don’t bleed easy anymore, not even at the dentist.

    The reason they bleed so easily when the dentist jabs at them, is cause they’re irritated from all the plaque buildup and improper cleaning.
