[A tiny hiccup.]

What happens if you accidentally swallow... "toothpaste"?

That's so you can get all the food out from between them. Apparently that food ... does nasty things to one's mouth if not cleaned out. It clears up a lot of questions on why people's teeth rot out where we come from, I must say.

[summerschild]

Food makes teeth rot? [He's bluntly horrified.] Do the maesters know this?

[tallasaking]

I have the distinct feeling that they do not. [Considering how many maesters no longer had teeth.]

[summerschild]

[He thinks on this.]

There's a lot the maesters don't know. Maybe we can teach them, when we all go back.

[tallasaking]

[He rubs his beard thoughtfully, before he nods.] Yes, yes. I think we could teach them a lot about personal health. It could cut down on plagues considerably.
