Tooth Color

"Your teeth are the best color," she said, as she probed around, cleaning and polishing them.

Then she said something that surprised me.  She said they were orange.


Of all the adjectives that might be used to describe teeth, I would think the top of the list would include words like:

white
pearly
lovely
great
awesome
sparkly
clean
bright
healthy


But she meant it as a compliment.  The dental student noticed the color and said she appreciated it, and then called them orange.

Thanks, dental student lady.
