Georgia Dentist Breaks World Record for Most Unusual Toothpaste Collection
In a world where some people collect stamps, coins, or even rocks, one Georgia dentist has taken collecting to the next level. Dr. Ted Williams, a.k.a the toothpaste connoisseur, has set a new Guinness World Records mark for the most unusual toothpaste collection.
Dr. Williams’ unique obsession started over a decade ago after he discovered a rare tube of wasabi toothpaste in a small Japanese supermarket. Since then, he has been on a mission to hunt down and obtain toothpaste flavors from around the world, ranging from the exotic to downright bizarre.
His collection of 2,037 toothpaste tubes, carefully organized by country and brand, includes flavors such as bacon, whisky, and even peanut butter. Dr. Williams has stated in several interviews that his favorite flavor is the limited edition “Gourmet Garlic,” adding that it not only cleans his teeth but also adds a spicy kick to his morning omelets.
When asked about his unusual hobby, Dr. Williams said, “I just love to experiment with new flavors and textures. Toothpaste is not only for teeth, but it can also be an exciting way to awaken your senses and excite your taste buds.”
The collection, estimated to be worth over $200,000, takes up an entire room in Dr. Williams’ house which is carefully temperature controlled to ensure that the toothpaste stays fresh. The dentist’s wife, however, has expressed concern that the collection is getting out of hand, as she now has to sleep in the living room due to the lack of space.
Even though Dr. Williams is thrilled to have broken the record, he stated that the most rewarding aspect of his hobby is sharing his collection with others. “I love being able to introduce my patients to new flavors and encourage them to expand their dental hygiene routine,” he said.
However, some critics of Dr. Williams’ toothpaste collection have voiced their concerns over the wastefulness of his hobby, citing that the dentist’s collection may be contributing to the ongoing problem of excessive consumption and wastage.
Despite the naysayers, Dr. Williams remains steadfast in his pursuit of toothpaste perfection, eagerly awaiting new flavors and brands to add to his already impressive collection.
In the end, the dentist’s collection may be unusual, but it is clear that his passion for toothpaste goes far beyond the average person’s daily brush. Congratulations on the new record, Dr. Williams, and may your collection continue to flourish!
