We collect FOUND stuff: love letters, birthday cards, kids' homework,
to-do lists, ticket stubs, poetry on napkins, telephone bills, doodles -
anything that gives a glimpse into someone
else's life. Anything goes...
Ew.
Daaaayumm! Lookit those captive little taste buds peeking out at us. I wonder if someone else will find the "after" picture someday.
(looks like they've been eating pistachios or almonds or some other sort of nut that leaves a skin to get stuck in the teeth.)
Oh, and Dreya, if you check in on your illustrious Find of the Day, please be so kind as to answer one question for me: Did you ever live in Schenectady, maybe attend Union College??? I simply MUST know.
Thanks!
I'd have to say this IS the after picture. Those four teeth, top dead center, are NOT real. It's a partial.
Let's hear it for flossing!
I think this is my new favourite find ever, I would have treasured this if I found it!
Serving suggestion:
best served with: http://foundmagazine.com/find/2001
Dear Omnipotent Found Beings,
if I may make a suggestion, you should glean search terms and tags for your Finds from the actual comments generated by said Find. for instance, when I typed in MOOB, because it took a while to remember the name of that find... well, you get my drift.
When I type panty crickets into the search function, I'd like it to take me to Anti Fourth of July.
And if there's any way that your hardcore Found Hounds could help to facilitate this reality, and bring it to fruition, I'd be willing to bet you'd have volunteers.
OMG!
oral decay prevention motivation
reminds me of the album of photos my orthodontist showed me before I got braces (in 1979, by the way) to motivate me to practice EXTRA good oral hygiene while my teeth were behind bars
i dont like pictures of teeth.
running right now.. lol @ teeth behind bars.
Not really what I wanted to see first thing in the morning.
Thanks, creating.
Why I could never be a dentist, orthodontist, or bi in any other kind of mouth related career...
Going to go floss... NOW.
UGH...If you don't want to keep your teeth (healthy)don't bother to floss.
That's just sick.
Wouldn't want to kiss that grill!
That's what I hate about red pepper. You can't just eat em and be done with it... they linger.
Another yuck. The top look false and the bottom look like they need to be brushed and then extracted. Nasty.
This picture really pops out at you too! When it came up I had to sit back some to take it in. I fear that if I stare at it too long, it'll open up and then I'll have to see what the inside of the mouth looks like as well.
I hate pics of teeth too...even healthy looking teeth.
My imagination is assembling Found body parts: hairy boobs, hairy ape legs, now this *ahem* smile...it's not a pretty picture.
@Creating your own reality: sorry, didn't mean to repeat your joke. Great minds, eh?
Ummm, yeah... Uhhh, teeth should cleaned thoroughly after being used as ice filters/masticators while drinking soda.
Ummmm, woah... Guess what spam question I had this morning which has the same answer to the following question: "Which medical professional did the person who owns these teeth need to see 1+ years ago?"
Now that this photo has been posted, the next time we'll hear from Jo will be in the "Hey! That's Me!" section.
Eeew! That's just awful. Is it just me or do others make character judgements based on how someone's teeth appear?
Ok, I can read the comments but I can't scroll up to the teeth again. Too icky. I don't think it's the fact that they're dirty or jacked up, it's that they're too big! It's like having someone in your personal space...you can almost smell the bad breath from them.
SWEET BABY JESUS!!! That skeered me.
I don't know why, but I think those teeth belong to a lady, and I think the top four are fake, and I think she lost them in a bar fight.
If you get up in the morning at a quarter to one
and you want to have a little fun,
You brush your teeth ch ch ch ch, ch ch ch ch....
If you get up in the morning at a quarter to two
and you want to find something to do,
You brush your teeth ch ch ch ch, ch ch ch ch....
If you get up in the morning at a quarter to three
and you want to hum a tweedle dee dee,
You brush your teeth ch ch ch ch, ch ch ch ch....
If you get up in the morning at a quarter to four
and you think you hear a knock at the door,
You brush your teeth ch ch ch ch, ch ch ch ch....
If you get up in the morning at a quarter to five
and you just can't wait to come alive,
You brush your teeth ch ch ch ch, ch ch ch ch....
<sniff> I miss Jo
you just miss a name. Jo's still here, silly.
@ Freonz- I think I judge character based upon teeth first and foremost. And along with teeth comes breath-- and those with the dragon breath are ALWAYS close talkers... It's tragic.
Uhg. I can't stand looking at teeth--good or bad. I always wonder how my hygienist can do what he does all day.
And every ad I see these days, no matter what it's for, looks like an ad for veneers or toothpaste. I really can't stand commercials where they show peoples' mouths close up and their big ass teeth in your face. And don't get me started on people with overly-white teeth, I don't want to see their teeth in the first place, let alone be so hypnotized by them, I can't stop staring at them.
The real victim in all of this is the camera. Assuming that this person was holding the camera, if you can't see the lips its because the person has partially put the camera in their mouth to hide the lips and to give those lovely gums full exposure.
Poor poor camera.
What is going on here is a tooth harvest... They are harvesting the teeth and replacing them with ceramic... The little one with the mark is next to go. The only trouble is, they have over harvested in greed and now we are left with this mess...
Well, whoever the dentist is that created this mess should really have his eyes checked. The new teeth are about7 or 8 shades lighter that the teeth right next to them. Not obvious at all! And what's up with the extremely loooonngg bottom teeth? Is this a picture of a donkey's mouth? He should get those filed down...On the whole, yuck.
Is it obvious, that yes, I do judge people by their teeth? (I used to work for an orthodontist)
This is too gross. Must remember never to view #6426 again. It makes my gums hurt.
They're not extremely long--periodontal disease.
Why do they call it a disease? It's not a disease, it's a neglect.
Ewwww.
Why do the fake top teeth already have greyish rotten looking lines where they meet the gum? And do you SEE how yellow the "canine" teeth are?! That is _disturbing._
The bottom teeth are suffering from some kind of gum disease. They're super long b/c the gum is receding- you can see the shape of the tooth where the gum used to be. It looks all melty, like everytime they eat or drink a little bit more washes away to expose more tooth.
Ugh, and the little red fleck on the bottom and white chunk stuck in between them?! If you were going to take a before (or after?) picture this zoomed in, at least make sure there's nothing stuck in them.
If they're porcelain fused to metal crowns, they have a gray line at the top.
Maybe I should start bringing a book with me to the dentist's office instead of starting at the posters.
Terrie and Christina--You're right, now that I look a little closer (about the receding gums). However, it might not be periodontal disease. I have one tooth where the gum has receded and the dentist said it was from brushing too hard! Although, I really don't think this guy has EVER brushed too hard....
Terrie is so very, you make me laugh loudly. Those shockinly WHITE teeth look really cool at a bar that's illuminated with black lights. Really, REALLY cool.
Not so much a "scary" find, as just profoundly unattractive.
@Kira..."tooth harvest!" I never thought I'd say this, but you made me LOL.
What the heck happened to our beloved "Magnify" link for this find?
do you actually want to MAGNIFY this find? or de-magnify??? I can't actually imagine it any bigger.
If I ever take a picture of my teeth that looks anything remotely like that, please kill me.
Oh my! I'm glad I never pursued becoming a Hygenist!I'm not sure I could look at teeth worse than this! Eww.
Flargy, you are correct. When there isn't a cock in Jo's mouth, this is indeed what it looks like.
This looks better than some of the meth mouth pics I've seen.
@creat in g my own reality:
Definitely hear what you're saying. The FOUND search box (and tag retrieval) is better than it's ever been, but we're working on building a bit more muscle in that area. We're not afraid to be servicey!
And I *swear* I'll put up a magnified image of this find tomorrow morning. One of my enduring memories of 4th grade was an in-class slideshow by a dentist. "Kids, is THIS what you want your teeth to look like" horror show. This set of teeth seems to have made it through all right-- I think a magnify is in order.
Dreya, thanks again for sending this our way!
this is TERRIFYING.
Yuck. I hope the Polariod still works after that. Actually, no I don't. Whoever took that picture should be punished!
Dammit I hadn't noticed the white thing before. This ruins my dinner and the next several meals. I'm gagging.
brush!!! BRRRRUUSHH!!!!!!!!
From the Found archives, this is the non-scary reminder to practice good oral (*smack*-stfu Turbo!) hygiene:
http://www.foundmagazine.com/find/763
Brusha, brusha, brusha!
And yet...
Dazzling clarity for such close proximity. Is that a peanut skin in the lower gums?
When this popped up on my screen, I hid it like porn. There's something embarrising about having my mom see me looking at this.
"hide it like porn!" for some reason I kinda like that. it's as cool as "drive it like you stole it!"
Has anyone seen the trailer for the new movie that came out in I think January. It's called "Teeth"? It's a horror movie. It's about a young girl who's a virgin. Finds out there is something "interesting" going on down there (if you know what I mean). She learns that her vagina has teeth and it kills people. I think we watched the trailer about a hundred times. this is the mental image I have of vagina teeth. Soooooo funny I recommend watching the trailer right now!!!!
Ewww, Kite. Is that why thongs are referred to as "floss"? Hahaha!
Night in Gale:
I knew what find you were linking to even before I went to confirm it. That is one of my ALL time favorite finds!!!
Kite, that gives a whole new meaning to the term "snatch"!
Omigosh - "snatch & grab"? (sorry... pretend I didn't say that.)
They most certainly must be British.
What a terrible stereotype, Lizzy...I know quite a few Americans who have worse looking teeth than those on the pic.
Well, more like "smash and grab"...gives a whole new meaning to the word "nooner"...let alone the British term, "knee-trembler", doesn't it?
How come this Found won't come up when I hit the "Prev" button? I had to run a search. This find is like a car wreck...gross but you can't look away.
@kite: That's called vagina dentata. :D

Now I'll have that song in my head the rest of the night.
Top Row:
THESE ARE YOUR TEETH
Bottom Row:
THESE ARE YOUR TEETH ON DRUGS.
...... You decide.
That's disgusting.
