10 Jul This Guy Hasn’t Brushed His Teeth For 20 Years, And It’s As Bad As You Think

I am a hygiene freak, particularly when it comes to my teeth. I make sure that I clean them at least twice a day, sometimes three times if I have a particularly “sweet” day (cake, fizzy drinks etc). So when I read the news that someone hadn’t brushed their teeth for 20 years, it’s safe to say I nearly had a heart attack.

People say that the smile is often the most important part of someone’s face; it gives away when you’re happy and also is key for making first impressions. If someone has a nice pair of gnashers when you meet them, the likelihood is that they look after themselves and take care with their appearance. Whilst we’re all guilty of swerving the dentist and not flossing from time-to-time, not cleaning your teeth for 20 years is absolutely insane.

But meet Jay, a 21-year-old who was not informed about the benefits of dental hygiene at a young age, so hasn’t brushed his teeth for the last 20 years. Appearing on Embarrassing Bodies (a show where people go and show what is wrong with them in front of an audience of millions), Jay informed the presenters of the shocking confession and even admitted that despite not brushing his teeth, he also ate and drank terribly as well. “Over the years, I’ve eaten the wrong food, I’ve drank lots of fizzy drinks and I haven’t really taken care of them, I have really brushed them or flossed or anything like that.”
