🦷🔍 **What’s That Wednesday?!** 🔍🦷
Today’s mystery item: **The Little Straw That Saves Your Teeth!**
Ever seen your dentist use a tiny tube that *slurps* like a baby vacuum? Kids usually call it “Mr. Thirsty,” and honestly… we love that name.
💧 **What is it really?**
It’s called a **saliva ejector** — but that’s a mouthful, so “Mr. Thirsty” works just fine.
😄 **What does it do?**
- Gently sucks up extra water and saliva
- Helps keep your mouth dry so we can clean or count your teeth
- Makes your visit quicker and easier
- Gives kids a fun sound to giggle at
🦸♂️ **Why it’s awesome:**
It’s one of the *superheroes* of the dental world — small, quiet, and always ready to help keep your smile safe.
So next time you’re in the chair and hear that little slurping sound, you’ll know exactly what it is. Happy **What’s That Wednesday** from all of us at **Cohen Family Dentistry**.
