When’s the best time to go to the dentist?

Tooth-hurty!

“When’s the best time to go to the dentist?” explained

Oral health is an essential part of your well-being. Dental jokes are perfect for telling those in the waiting room or to your dentist.

Tooth-hurty refers to a time of 2:30. It’s funny because you need to go to the dentist if your teeth hurt. Also, it can sound like tooth-hurty if you say “2:30” while the dentist is working on your teeth.
