It's been 2 months plus since my new maid came to work for me. Less than 2 weeks after she came, I had to take her to the dentist. The dentist removed 1 tooth. Then I realised that she has extreme bad breath. I got her a tongue brush to clean her tongue but her bad breath still persist. Everyday I had to endure the bad breath while driving. It's horrible. It got me thinking, it must be her teeth. Got her Listerine to gargle and still doesn't really work.
Finally today my mom took her to the dentist and to her horror, the condition of her teeth was really bad. The dentist had to pull another tooth and there are 10 teeth that needed filling. The holes are stuffed with food and that is the cause of her bad breath. The dentist cleaned her teeth which was filled with brownish/blackish food/plague. Goodness my maid is only in her mid twenties! Her dental bill is going to be a bomb. The previous maid of mine had to remove 4 teeth and most of her upper and lower molars are gone. Does your maid have the same problem or it's just my luck? It's so important to take good care of our teeth.

Merryn,
At first I thought I have to but later found out I don't have to. Only medical. Phew...
little prince's mummy,
Yup..definitely terrible.. :)
My philipino maid had her 2 of her teeth removed when she went for her medical check up before she came here. She said it is a requirement.
Linda,
Thank you for visiting and welcome!
My previous maid and the new maid, both came with teeth problems! Now it's ok... I have indoenesians so maybe requirements were not so strict.
