[Magdalen] Cancer consultation (almost).

[Jay Weigel]

I had the same happening, on a smaller scale, at my dentist. The hygienist
remarked upon some white spots in my mouth, and when the dentist came in at
the end of my cleaning, as one of them always does, he asked a few
pertinent questions. On learning that I had once worn braces, and that I am
an occasional cheek-chewer, he said, "I don't think we have anything to
worry about," and sent me on my way.
