Toothpasteworld
What  does a respectable Michigan dentist do for kicks? Well, once he puts down the drill and local anesthetic, he devotes his time to his collection. And because he's a dentist, his collection covers the wide world of toothpaste -- over 1,000 squeezable tubes strong! Dr. Val Kolpakov's Aim is simple: to tell the Close-Up story of Ultra Brite, Panda, Kiss My Face, and other smile-inducing concoctions. All this variety can be dizzying, but the good doctor helps makes some Sensodyne of it. Who knew that Canada, Malaysia, and Israel also packaged their unique brands of fluoride and minty freshness in a variety of colorful tubes and boxes? Or that characters such as Woody Woodpecker, the Care Bears, and Hello Kitty have lent their names to the cause of top-quality teeth. Dr. Val sure does. And we salute him for broadening our oral-care horizons. (in Health) |
