The Pirate’s Dentist Visit
Captain Toothless Tim had a toothache so bad, it made him cancel his plundering for the day. Reluctantly, he went to see a dentist.
The dentist asked, “Captain Tim, when was the last time you brushed your teeth?”
Tim scratched his head. “Brush me teeth? What’s that mean? I rinse them with seawater every fortnight!”
Horrified, the dentist examined his mouth. “Captain, you’ve got cavities the size of cannonballs! We’ll need to remove some teeth.”
Tim gasped. “Remove me teeth? But they’re me treasures!”
The dentist replied, “Captain, you’ll still have most of your treasures. But if we don’t fix this, you won’t even be able to chew hardtack.”
Reluctantly, Tim agreed. After the procedure, he looked in the mirror and grinned (as best as he could). “Arrr, I look even more pirate-y now with fewer teeth!”
From then on, he used his missing teeth as a new way to intimidate his enemies, shouting, “Beware, or ye’ll end up lookin’ like me!”
