Home VHS: Dental Care

General

Overview

The player can reduce boredom by -5 for each line of dialog when in the vicinity of a television playing the VHS.

The VHS can be used with an appropriate television to play the monologue of Dr. R. B. Mat teaching his patients have to keep their teeth healthy and strong.

Transcript

R. B. Mat:
Welcome to my surgery. My name is R.B. Mat, and I'm a dentist in West Point.

The most common reason you will become a patient of mine is poor dental hygiene.

Today, I'm going to show you simple ways to keep your teeth and gums healthy.

Brush your teeth with fluoride toothpaste for at least two minutes twice a day.

Spit but do not rinse out your mouth, as toothpaste contains ingredients...

...to keep your teeth and gums healthy.

You should make an appointment with your dentist if you have...

...bleeding gums, which may be a sign of gum disease.

Gum disease cannot be cured but it can be treated and managed.

The sooner you receive help, the better.

Tooth loss is not a natural part of aging. Most tooth loss is due to gum disease.

Flossing is extremely important. Take at least 12 inches of floss...

...and hold two inches at a time taut between your fingers.

Instead of flossing, you can use an interdental brush, which is just as effective.

Fluoride mouthwash is also recommended, although not right after brushing.

Keep your teeth and gums healthy, and the only time you'll see me...

...is your checkup once every six months or so. I'll see you then!

Effective chance calculations are based off of default 'apocalypse' loot settings, with no luck modifier, and average zombie density. The higher the density of zombies in an area, the higher the effective chance of an item spawning. Chance is also influenced by the lucky and unlucky traits. Duplicate entries do exist, but have been removed for clarity.
