. . . DENTAL CARRIES . . .
. . . may refer to a volatile socio-political situation in which one's teeth and gums take up teeny-tiny arms to prevent further servings of soda, ice cream, candy bars, and the like. If you notice minuscule yet vivid stinging impacts all over your fingers and/or knuckles as you eat sugary foods then your dental situation may very well have turned towards the militant.
May also refer to rogue dentists who have abandoned traditional oral hygiene techniques in favor of quickdraw sharpshooting to blast cavities and gum disease right outta their clients' mouths.
