Something I appreciate?  Very questionable that I truly appreciate having a trip to the dental hygienist, though I know I am susceptible to gum disease and need to see him. I do try and use these mini "toilet brush style"  teeth cleaning brushes twice a day.  I would, if I were a child, have been given a gold star today - he was very pleased with my progress.  
So he should be - I nearly choked at the price which has risen yet again.....hey ho! The cost of keeping the teeth and now having sensitive teeth for a while until they settle back after their rigorous scrubbing continues to climb,  I ought to be grateful and under the grumping I guess I am!!!
