Sheffield
Did you know that a recent survey showed people in Sheffield have the worst teeth in Britain? They may bristle, but will have to brace themselves to the facts: Sheffielders were found to have on average more fillings, more missing teeth, and to brush for a shorter time, than anyone else in the land. Brighton , by the way, had the best toothy pegs.
