Frank Zappa's Dental Floss Ad

Frank Zappa (December 21, 1940 – December 4, 1993) had a big hit in 1973 with his typically wacky song "Montana," about moving to Montana to become a dental floss tycoon. 

By 1981, the song was so popular the American Dental Association had Zappa do a group of 3 radio spots promoting dental health. 

Here's the 30 sec spot where he promotes dental floss.

"Montana" was probably the best flossing song of the 20th Century!
Thanks, Frank!  We'll floss with you in mind.

Goofy Flossing

Goofy Flossing Video

An activist dentist in the Bay Area of California, Dr. Dalvir Pannu, has been holding a monthly contest for flossing videos and pictures. The winner of his March contest was Vivek Vinayak who got Goofy to floss during a visit to Disneyland.

You can visit Dr. Pannu's blog (www.punjabidentist.com) to find out more about his contest. His practice seems to cover much of the Bay Area (http://www.pannudental.com), and he also has a radio show.

Floss on, Dr. Pannu!
