Chapter 1235: This Little Thing Called Brushing Your Teeth

“Hello,” Vanessa greeted with a smile when she saw Amy, who was carrying a little fat orange cat, and Anna.
The two little elves looked very adorable and obedient. Even that fat and round little orange cat was cute.
“Hello, Big Sister.” Amy nodded. Although this big sister’s teeth looked a little strange, they were still very beautiful.
“Hello.” Anna nodded slightly, and also looked at Vanessa curiously.
Mag closed the door and motioned for Vanessa to take a seat before standing in front of her. Smiling, he said, “I am not a doctor, so I might not be able to give you much help. I can only be certain after I take a look at your teeth.”
“Okay.” Vanessa nodded. She looked at Mag and felt an inexplicable sense of trust that made her willing to show him even the ugliest side of herself without feeling any pressure. Instead, she was even a little hopeful that he could help her in one way or another.
Although he was just a chef, she felt hopeful.
“Here, open your mouth,” Mag said softly.
Vanessa opened her mouth and revealed her teeth.
Mag looked at Vanessa’s teeth. Since he had already received the report from the system just now, this was just to rationalize what he was going to do.
Although he already knew what to expect, when he actually saw Vanessa’s teeth, Mag could not help but be shocked.
The teeth that were supposed to be neat and clean looked as though they had been corroded by sulfuric acid, leaving numerous holes of various sizes. There was also a layer of black plaque at the surface of the teeth, which looked extremely difficult to remove.
The most seriously decayed tooth was already completely corroded, leaving only the gum.
It was really difficult to imagine that this set of teeth belonged to a 16-year-old.
“Can we still do anything about it?” Vanessa asked Mag.
Lola watched Mag a little nervously. If he could help treat the young mistress’s teeth, he would not be such a bad guy, after all.
Abraham looked equally expectantly at Mag. The king had once called upon all the famous doctors and all the healing magic casters from the Magus Tower, but none of them could cure Vanessa’s teeth. There was even a rumor saying that she was cursed by the gods, and that was why her teeth were all decayed.
Such rumors were obviously very hurtful to a young lady in her prime.
“I can’t be certain.” Mag shook his head.
Vanessa’s heart sank a little. She had already heard the same words from countless doctors and magic casters.
“But we still have to give it a try, right?” Mag said with a smile.
Vanessa looked at Mag’s smile and felt warm. She regained some hope, and nodded her head slightly.
“The thing with dental problems is that timely and effective cleaning and care is important. Now, what we have to do first is to make sure that your teeth do not get any worse, and get rid of the dental problems. After that, we can try to mend the teeth slowly so that they would go back to normal again,” Mag said.
“Young Mistress would always rinse her mouth after her meals. She is very mindful of her oral hygiene,” Lola said. Did this fellow think that Her Highness’s dental problem was because she was unhygienic?
Mag shook his head slightly, and said, “I know, but it is not sufficient to stop at brushing your teeth with sea salt and rinsing your mouth to keep your mouth clean. This is especially the case for Miss Vansa.”
“Then what should I do to clean them?” Vanessa asked.
Mag walked to the counter and took out the Yunnan Baiyao and three toothbrushes that the system sponsored. He showed them to Vanessa, and said, “This is the toothpaste I made. Use it once after you wake up and before you sleep every day.”
“Toothpaste?” Vanessa looked at Mag, bewildered. This was the first time she had heard about something like that. Besides, it was even made by Mag and stored in a flat, round container.
“Because it has a paste-like texture and is for cleaning the teeth, I named it toothpaste,” Mag explained. After that, he opened the cover of the container, and peeled off the seal inside as he said, “This is a soft-bristle toothbrush. Press the bottom part of the toothpaste to squeeze out some toothpaste the size of a pea on the toothbrush. Rinse your mouth first before putting this toothbrush into your mouth. Brush lightly on the top, the bottom, the left, and the right of your teeth continuously for three minutes. After that, spit out the foam and rinse your mouth again with clear water. That would be the end of one toothbrushing session.”
Vanessa looked at Mag with a lot of doubt.
“I have drawn out a detailed instruction manual for you. Just follow the instruction manual when you return.” Mag passed a folded piece of paper to Vanessa.
“Alright.” Vanessa received the instruction manual with both hands.
“Toothbrushing is very important. You must remember to do it twice every day: before you sleep and after you wake up. You can look for me again if you’re out of toothpaste. You can use this soft-bristled toothbrush for a month. After a month, change to a new toothbrush,” Mag instructed.
“Mm-hmm.” Vanessa nodded. She felt warm and fuzzy inside because it had been a very long time since anyone instructed her about small things like this so gently, and this person was a stranger that she’d just come to know.
Perhaps she might just be a stranger to Mag, but his eggplant with garlic sauce had already appeared in her dreams several times. Although she could not see his face clearly every time, he still felt very familiar to her.
“Also, your cavities had already affected your gums, so if you eat anything too stimulating, you will be harming your teeth and gums again, and this is not helpful to your recovery. So, from today onwards, you cannot eat anything sweet, spicy, or stimulating anymore, especially before you sleep at night. You are not allowed to have anything other than plain water to drink,” Mag said seriously. At this very moment, he suddenly felt like he could be a doctor.
“Then the sweet tofu pudding…” Vanessa said meekly.
“No.” Mag shook his head. He pulled a menu over and flipped it open before saying, “Not just sweet tofu pudding. You are not allowed to eat dishes like pepper steak, steamed fish head with diced hot red peppers, beef kebab, and spicy grilled fish before you recover.”
Vanessa glanced at the few dishes left on the menu and pouted her lips with grievance. However, she also knew that it was for her own good. Even though she was very unwilling, she still nodded obediently.
Hmm? He seemed quite professional, and is even more detailed than those doctors. Those doctors only told the princess to eat fewer sweets, and not to cut sweets out completely, so her teeth continued to get worse. Lola looked at Mag with surprise. The question is whether Her Highness could control herself.
“Alright, go back early to rest.” Mag placed the toothpaste and toothbrush in a small wooden box, and passed it to Lola, who was standing at the side.
“Thank you, Boss Mag,” Vanessa thanked Mag as she stood up.
“Treating dental problems takes very long. I believe you will be able to persevere,” Mag said with a smile.
“I will.” Vanessa nodded.
When they were walking out, Abraham walked a little slower. He grabbed Mag’s hand, and he said, “Boss Mag, if Vansa’s teeth can get better, I must repay you heavily.”.
“You’re too polite,” Mag said with a smile. To him, he was to suffer the consequences if he did not treat her.
