Why do you neglect cleanings, orthodontic treatment, daily brushing, and flossing despite having money, and let yourself end up with periodontal disease, dentures, or crooked, unclean-looking teeth?
I don't expect men on dating club platforms to be handsome or have great physiques. As long as your breath doesn't smell and intimacy isn't unpleasant, that's good enough for me—so please, try a little harder?

I get regular dental checkups—about once every six months.
Whenever I go, they always check for things like tartar and gum disease. And there’s usually some kind of treatment involved, too.
Last time, they said I had some tobacco stains, so they polished my teeth with an abrasive paste（笑).

My teeth aren’t exactly white either, so I know I need to work on that too, but lately my monthly arrangement partner has suddenly started having bad breath.
I’ve been wondering if maybe he’s been tired lately, or having stomach problems. He did seem busy…
The sports day was so hot.

I hope things go well with your papa-katsu (compensated dating in Japan), too!
There really aren’t that many people—with papa-katsu supporters or otherwise—who have straight, beautiful teeth. The same goes for body odor; it’s hard to notice these things about yourself, so I hope you can find a tactful way to let him know.

I feel the same.
Since he has no other drawbacks, I’m just thinking, “Oh man, what should I do?” Even if we brush our teeth together or eat Frisk mints, there are still times when I’m like, “Wow, that smells…”
If everything else were a dealbreaker, I could end things, but he’s honestly such a wonderful person to be around.
Please realize it! I don’t want to cut things off!
Sorry this isn’t really an answer.

When people now in their 40s or older were students, the concept of preventive dentistry was hardly known.
I think I first became aware of floss about 15 years ago.
When I was younger, I thought of the dentist as a place where they used that high-pitched machine to painfully drill out cavities.
So I wanted to avoid going to the dentist whenever possible.
Even now, I think many people in their 40s and older still try to avoid the dentist, especially when it comes to conditions like gum disease that don’t cause any pain.
Having money has nothing to do with it.
Men with strong bad breath naturally tend to have fewer women who stay with them long-term, but I get the feeling they surprisingly don’t realize that their breath may be the cause.

It’s often said that Japanese people are less conscious of oral care than people in the West, especially Americans.
I’ve also heard that only about 20% of Japanese people use floss, compared with around 70% of Americans… though I’m sorry, I can’t remember the source.
Also, thanks to Japan’s universal health insurance system, even if you get a cavity, you can have it treated for just a few thousand yen out of pocket. Maybe that makes it harder for a culture of prevention to take root. In the U.S., it doesn’t work that way, and there’s also a sense that keeping your teeth looking good is simply good manners, so perhaps there are cultural differences at play too.
I had braces when I was young, so I became very conscious of oral care whether I liked it or not. But after becoming an adult, I realized that many people in Japan absolutely hate going to the dentist.
I’m always wishing more people would feel comfortable going regularly. There are way too many people with really bad breath.

I really think so too.
The woman I met recently had a beautiful face, a great figure, and even got an extra star, but her teeth were yellow. Such a shame.
If we get closer, I’m thinking of bringing it up tactfully and adding the cost of whitening to her allowance.
I know everyone’s different, but if she had her teeth professionally cleaned regularly, they probably wouldn’t get that yellow. It’s a shame.
For floss, I recommend the Italian-made Flare Floss. It removes a lot.
