Loss of teeth by state.... and Connecticut came in 52nd? The last time I checked there were only 50 states!!!!!! Holy jesus how retarded can you be? Puerto Rico and the US Virgin Islands ARE NOT STATES!!! |

Are these numbers well correlated with people who actually visit the dentist? Could it be that people in Connecticut have no less cavities than people in Virginia but are more likely to visit the dentist to have their teeth pulled? |

I'm glad to see that DC, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands made it as "states", but Hawaii did not. I almost trust this research. |

Actually, I think a correlation exists between tooth decay and brain disease; At least judging by the people I have encountered from West Virginia. |

That's how I would of listed the top ten. Actually, I think the correlation is between the number of missing teeth in a state and the number of NASCAR fans. |

Are some of the states higher because thoes states are located in the appalachian region and health care in the appalachian region poor at times and could it be a side affect of the meth use in that area a side affect called meth mouth |

Show me a scatterplot of this vs tea consumption. In the South, at a picnic for example, you will sometimes see iced tea served and no water. I kid you not. I would be very interested to know how closely those correlate. |

Did we give up our statehood when I was at the dentist? |
