Wonder if the “athletes” take time to floss?

My bet is because athletes don’t have real jobs and the medical/dental coverage that comes with a real job.

My guess is that the vast majority of the athletes examined came from countries other than the U.S.....I don't know how many Brits I've seen on TV that have absolutely ugly teeth.....

“At that age do you really need dental “coverage” or just good habits?”:

My teeth started heading South when I was about 15. I had good habits, but I also had Welsh teeth. Poor enamel. Everyone on that side of the family had choppers by the time they were in their Forties.
Gee! I coulda been an athlete!

Note that the standards used are those of Britush dentists!

P.S. Dental care is part of the UK socialized health care. You can often tell a Brit by his teeth.

British? Bad teeth? I thought that condition (see figure 1)
was a given...

...like being Irish and drunk (see figure 2).

In all the dozens of times I have been to GB, I have never seen a ‘dentist’ sign. Maybe they are worded differently or are located in dr’s offices or maybe they don’t advertise with street signs. Either way, I never saw a single one.

They likely aren’t eating properly, because they don’t have the time to cook. So, it’s all fast food of one kind or another.

And amphetamines and, unfortunately, crystal meth.

Whatever it takes to get that slight edge.

Key question!
