Hey, Doc…How Many Types Of Smiles Are There, Anyway?

"Hey, you!...You're a spy!...Come here!"...



I'm frisking you down!...

...before you go any further!



And then, I'm gonna sit on you until



you "spill the beans!"

...

"Hi, Ladies...I saw the sign outside that says

something about a "Red Carpet' somewhere...

Is that handsome protagonist "Hollywood" going to come, because

I'm a supporter...and a back-stage groupie!

"Okay, Hollywood...

I'm sitting down...

now

what's the good news you want to tell me?"

"Hey, Big Boy!

Your "Hot Cross Buns" are

hot out my oven!

My... I see that people 

are filing in early 

to see 

the show today...sponsored by the 

groundbreaking Love Toothbrush®                                                   

Well, Good Day to 

all of you HSR fans!

HSR personally tapped and rubbed me on 

the shoulder (that hot man!)

and convinced me in zero seconds

to volunteer as the

Grand Moderator of this Episode!

I love that man so much...and I can

see how all of the other people do, too!"

...

"So ladies!...

It's time to gush on about HSR...

...and sister, does he really make you melt!"...

Oh yes, Dr. HSR, he sure does!...

He asked if he could

check out the views and stuff 

from my penthouse suite, on the 

70th floor, 

I've moved up one...

and now that it's ready...

He's coming today to check out "The Whole Enchilada!"

...

"Thank you, Miss Moderator!

"Dr. Report, I haven't seen you since that 

"Summer in Russia" at the Dental Student Exchange Program

where your soothing voice and mannerisms

calmed me down

so that they could take x-rays!

Now, if you want to take x-rays, I'm all yours!

...

"Miss Moderator! Good Day!

Hollywood has taught me so much

about how to control my cravings

for sugar...you know...the stuff that we are all constantly bombarded by...

Well, "Moderation is the Key!" he says.

He also says that, "You are the Boss of Your Own Mouth!" and 

"Nothing goes in without your okay!"

So, now, I'm trading one habit for another

Hollywood...I'm going to start

binging on you!"

...

"Dr. Report...you're smiling!...

...wait!...

so, you want to 

mess it up again?"

...

Okay, Ladies...I'm 

going to have to cut it off right there...

Sorry, HSR, why you looking' at me like that!

I'm not talkin' 'bout you!...

But, you Ladies can meet with HSR on your own time...

That is, after I'm finished with him!

...

"Doctor Hollywood Smiles Report!...

Do you remember the dreams that you have about Dental School?...

And sometimes they are about an assignment that still has yet to be finished?...

Well, I am the Professor for that class,

and I

am still waiting for that work!"

All I gotta say is, HSR better turn in that work, 

whether it be in his dreams, in cyberspace, or in the cloud:

"School Don't Play!"

"You can play... 

with me, 

HSR,

after you finish your work!"

Okay, People!

Today's post will only be available to be viewed through

an old-fashioned Monocle

that fits over

one eye!

However, if you use a Steampunk

version, you'll get better 

3D effects!

And, it goes without saying that

you and your

"this morning, I put my head back and looked at the clouds outside...and they were all looking at me!...so, I looked back to them, and said, "Hello!""

smile

want to see HSR's French Instructor and her pet pooch at lunch today,

because both are just such 

fine and fun friends!

And sometimes, it is surmised that 

some of the big lapses in judgement that HSR makes 

might be because he may have received some

brain damage as a kid...

because he kept messing with his baby 

sister!

And as they got older,

she had to keep putting HSR 

in his place! 

But does he ever learn?...

Apparently not!...

But, let it be known that 

she would fiercely protect her brother from

...anyone else!

HSR is 

only her

punching bag!

But why do the ladies love HSR so much?

"I love HSR, because

he always tells me

the truth...which never hurts...

...and it always sets me free!"

"I, myself,  can never get enough of HSR because

when ever I get "too low"...

he's always there, and "too low" right with me!"

"I really like him because he always saves me from the

shallow waters!"

Well, saving you is something that HSR

likes to do, what with all of the touching

and hugging and good feelings after,

WHICH IS EXACTLY WHAT HSR IS GOING TO NEED HIMSELF

BECAUSE

WHILE ON BREAK FROM U. S. "MF" C. 

DENTAL SCHOOL,

AT THE BAR AT KINNIKINNICK 

CAMPGROUNDS

BY PORT EDWARD, BRITISH COLOMBIA, IN CANADA,

HSR GOES TO A NEARBY BAR

AND INSIDE, PEOPLE ARE JUST

GETTING REALLY SERIOUS!...

AND SOME GIRLS ARE DANCING

VERY SMOOTHLY!...

AND OTHERS...SORT OF

WILD AND

CRAZY!...

BUT THERE'S THIS ONE YOUNG LADY

WATCHING THE BIG SCREEN, 

AND HSR GOES OVER

AND THEY BOTH HAVE SOME STUFF TO DRINK, AND...

AFTER SOME TALKING AND

A LITTLE BIT OF FLIRTING, SHE ASKS HIM,

"WANT TO COME OVER TO MY CABIN AND WATCH THE HOCKEY GAME?"

SO, THEY WALK OVER TO HER PLACE AND 

IT'S GETTING DARK 

AND

COLD!..

BUT, UNBEKNOWNST TO THEM,

SOMEONE IS FOLLOWING

THEM!

SO THEY GET TO HER PLACE AND 

AFTER WATCHING THE GAME A COUPLE OF MINUTES,

IN THE WARM AND COZY CABIN,

THE COMFORTABLE HSR, ON THE COUCH,

 FALLS FAST ASLEEP AND THE LADY,

SORT OF DISAPPOINTED, GOES

AND IN HSR'S CREAMY, DREAMY WORLDS, 

HE, OF COURSE, STARTS IMAGINING

ABOUT

SOME SNOWY

FRIENDS, AND

SOME FANTASY SNOWBALL

CHALLENGES, WITH EVEN

PATRICK GETTING IN ON

THE ACTION!

THEN HSR ENVISIONS AN IMPOSSIBLE BUILDINGSCAPE

AND HIS SISTER'S DOLL

AND THEN...

HE DREAMS THAT

SOME PEOPLE 

ARE AFTER HIM...

WHICH MAKES HIM WAKE UP!

...

OH THE _ _ _ _, NO!

HOW'D I GET HERE!

THERE'S NUTHIN' BUT 

SNOW ALL AROUND!...

THIS WAY...

AND THAT!...

THEN HE LOOKS DOWN AND SEES

A FRIENDLY ICE DOG!

AND A WHOLE BUNCH 

OF OTHERS!

AND HE FEELS A NOTE IN HIS POCKET AND

HE TAKES IT OUT AND OPENS IT UP

AND IT SAYS, "THANK YOU, DR. REPORT 

FOR THE GOOD TIME LAST NIGHT, EVEN WHILE YOU WERE ASLEEP!

I STILL EXPLORED!

AND YOU MADE ME HAVE THREE "EARTHQUAKES"

AND FOUR

POWERFUL AND SPARKLY 

PRIMARY AND SECONDARY 

"BIG BANGS!"...

DURING THE CORPOREAL AND VIRTUAL REALITY 

GAMES WE PLAYED!...

...THANKS MUCH!

OH, I PUT YOU OUT IN THE SNOW 

TO GET YOU AWAY FROM SOME BAD GUYS IN TOWN.

THEY HURT PEOPLE!

SO, I SET YOU UP WITH MY DOGS AND MY SLED!...

PLEASE HEAD DUE EAST, BUT STAY OFF OF 

YELLOWHEAD HWY, SOMETIMES THEY SET UP ROADBLOCKS ON IT!...

AND I'LL MEET YOU IN 

DIANA LAKE PROVINCIAL PARK IN ONE WEEK...

PLEASE BE SAFE!"

"WOW," SAYS HSR, "I'M OUT HERE IN THE 

SNOWY WILDERNESS 

AND I GOTTA SURVIVE AND I'M GLAD I HAVE

SOME DOGS WITH ME, TO SCARE AWAY THE WOLVES!"

AND HE LOOKS AT THE HEAD DOG

WHO YOU JUST GOTTA LOVE...

AND HSR SAYS TO THE DOG, "HEY, BUDDY... YOU AND ME ARE GOING PLACES!"

SO, HSR GATHERS HIMSELF

AND HE SAYS, "I'M GONNA STAY ALIVE AND WIN THIS THING!"

AND ONE DOG HERE SAYS,

"AMEN!"

THEN HSR FIGURES OUT WHICH WAY IS EAST,

FROM A COMPASS 

THAT THE LADY FRIEND LEFT HIM...

AND HE GETS UP

AND GETS READY TO START HIS JOURNEY! 

AND NOW...

THEY'RE OFF!

AND, ON THEIR WAY, 

THEY PASS SOME

SNOW CIRCLES...

 THEN, THEY GO 

FARTHER 

AND PASS A

OOPS! DON'T GET TOO CLOSE!

OH, WOW!

SOME SNOW 

CLOUDS!

OH NO!

WOLF ALERT!

I'M GLAD I GOT ME AND MY DOGS!

SO, WE KEEP ON GOING!...

AND GOING!

BUT SOON,

 THE SUN STARTS TO

GO DOWN, WITH ITS BEAUTIFUL SELF!...

BUT, OH BOY...

...THAT COULD MEAN REAL DANGER IN THE WILDERNESS!...

MAYBE THE DOGS AND I CAN 

FIND A CAVE...

OR SOMETHING!...

BUT THEN HSR HEARS SOME RUSTLING IN THE SNOW,

AND THIS LADY COMES OUT AND SAYS,

HI THERE!...

I'M KALLIK!

YOU, SIR, 

WILL NOT LAST LONG OUT HERE...

PLEASE...

COME WITH ME... 

TO A SAFE PLACE!...

SO, THEY ALL GO OVER TO THE WOMAN'S OUTPOST, 

AND WHEN THEY GET THERE,

AT THE BACK DOOR,

KALLIK SAYS, THIS IS MY SISTER

NUVUA...

WE WILL KEEP YOU VERY WARM AND PROTECTED...

...TONIGHT!

"The night is the time for Romance...among many other things!"                                              

The most fascinating, yet enigmatic part of the face is,

very debatably...

...The Smile!

The anatomy of smiles are, in essence, very basic features...

However, what's behind the smile...

...and in the mind of the person smiling, well...

it's unknown...

that is, unless, you can read people's minds!



Anatomically, we have variations to this

like the gummy smile

and a smile with a diastema

or with teeth sticking too far out in front.

Teeth in cross bite help to make business for Orthodontists!

Thumb, finger, and tongue parafunctional habits can cause anterior open bites!

There are smiles with partial and full tooth loss,

and many other conditions, that Dentists see and treat!




On a social level,

a smile, or

a coa (for cosmetic oral anatomy)



may reveal, or not,

how a person really feels.

A truly happy and sincere grin has been researched and is

called a "Duchenne Smile", which makes "Crow's Feet"

on the sides of the



eyes.

An even happier smile has been researched,

where a person makes the biggest smile possible,

AND

squeezes the eyes together

to make the most vulnerable smile, called the

"Winge" or the "Infinismile" or the "Epitome" Smile...

...seen with the teeth together, above,

or, here, with an open



ora!




Smaller smiles, which use less muscular contraction,

are more abundant

in our social interactions,

and have been referred to as "Pan Am"



smiles or

desultory, perfunctory, or even 

fake smiles.

They are made

with minimal effort and

may not be diagnostic!... because

the person may or may not be sincere!



Take this lady...

Can you tell if her smile reflects that she has

good or happy thoughts?

Here, we are just showing the teeth...

with hardly any sign of emotion.

Here, I can't tell if she just found her lost iPhone (positive), or if

she just frightened away some kids for Halloween?

Is this lady thinking about her times with

Dr. Report?

Just looking at this lady's  "Winge Smile" makes me

feel better!

With a smile like this...yes, you can have

the keys to my...

Bentley!

OMG!...Pretty, white, and Golden-Proportioned teeth make people, especially this lady,

look very "with it," and "full of life," and desirable, 

and

may have some admiring people innocently come up to her and ask, 

"May I just stare at your beautiful teeth for a while?"

I'm inclined to believe that there are really happy 

and positive feelings going on 

here

and here

and here.

However, I am inclined to believe that there are "at risk thoughts" going on here

here

and, very possibly, 

here!

(an evil "Duchenne")!

Here's a probable 

"Non-Happy Winge Smile/Grimace!"

Here are two sets of Orthodontically-nice teeth

but

I don't think that their owners are happy now!

Well, I guess I'll take 

this one,

and their smiles,

and hers,

anytime, over this

one and this

one and especially 

this "warning sneer!"

And this grin?...

I'll be fluid in my interpretation,

but, definitely not

hers!...

And I have my precautions about this

 one!...

She'll make the guys think...really long and really hard...about her stuff!

OMG! Whew!

I'm going over to HSR's place and ...

My style designer said if I ever 

get something on the back of my dress

all I gotta do is...

...Presto!...I'll have HSR try it, too!"

May you have many...

"many times, my life its so unpredictable...

there's this thing to do, and that thing to do

and my life sometimes seems like a maze

that  I must negotiate,

so, I walk down this path, 

and then that path

until finally, 

after rounding one more 

maze corner

OMG!...There you are!"...

"HSR, I used to be like this



but since meeting you, I'm like this!

...and, now,  I want to give you"...


"I've always been slim...

as a matter of fact, some call me the

"New Age Twiggy!"...

but don't let these long, skinny legs 

fool you...

...once, HSR tried to test me in Judo...

and now...

I put him on the mat every time!"...

...smiles!

"Man!...This Steampunk Monocle gives crystal clarity to this blog!...

...I think I'll come back here tomorrow!"









"Okay, Hollywood...

I'm here to walk you home!"



..."And I'm her



back up!"
