Ow...What's wrong?Yeah, I know, I have a toothache.It hurts, I have to go to the dentist.What's a "dentist"?A "dentist" is a tooth doctor.
嗷......怎么了？是的，我知道，我牙疼。好疼啊，我得去看牙医。“牙医”是什么？“牙医”就是治牙齿的医生。
Do you hate going to the dentist? Uh-huh.I love going to the dentist, I don't know why.
你讨厌去看牙医吗？嗯哼。我很喜欢去看牙医，我也不知道为什么。
Ever since I was a child, I have absolutely loved going to the dentist.
从我小时候起，我就很喜欢去看牙医。
Maybe because my dentist gave me stickers to play with or something to take home.
或许是因为我的牙医会给我贴纸玩，或者给我个东西带回家。
I don't know, I've just never been afraid of the dentist.
我不知道，我就是从来没害怕过牙医。
I always thought that it was really cool to see all the tools that the dentists use and put them in my mouth.I was a strange child.
我总是觉得看到牙医用的那些工具，看他把那些工具放进我的嘴巴里非常炫酷。我是个怪孩子。

Not much has changed except I've gotten bigger.My name is Ronnie, today, I'm going to teach you about going to the dentist.
现在也没怎么变，除了我长高了些。我叫 Ronnie，今天我要跟你讲去看牙医。
Oh, the torture, oh, the pain, oh, the fear, oh, the fun.I'm going to teach you some basic vocabulary that you need to know if you go to the beautiful dentist.
太折磨人了，太痛苦了，太可怕了，太好玩了。我会教你一些去看牙医时需要知道的基本词汇。
First of all, we have in English singular and plural.So, singular is one "tooth".
首先，在英语中，名词有单数和复数两种形式。单数就是一颗牙齿，也就是用 "tooth"。
So you can say, "My tooth hurts", or "I have a toothache", singular, "tooth".So "tooth" means one.
所以你说“我的牙齿疼”或“我牙疼”时，要用单数形式，用 "tooth"。"tooth" 指的是一颗牙齿。
If you want to talk about more than one tooth, you have to say "teeth".
如果你想讲两个及以上的牙齿，那你就得用 "teeth"。
Now, ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, please be very careful with your pronunciation of the word "teeth" and "tooth", especially "teeth".
女士们先生们，姑娘小伙们，请一定要注意 "teeth" 和 "tooth" 的发音，尤其是 "teeth"。
If you do not stick your tongue out and say "teeth", it sounds like you say "tits", "tits".It sounds like you say "tits".Don't say that.
如果你读 "teeth" 时不把舌头伸出来，那听起来就像你在说 "tits" （乳房）。听起来就像 "tits"。不要这么说。
So: "tooth" and "teeth", you must stick out your tongue to get the pronunciation of this word all right.
所以读 "tooth" 和 "teeth" 时，你一定要把舌头伸出来才能把这些单词读对。
The next word you might know already, but think this is strange, and think, "Gum? Chewing gum?
下一个单词你可能已经认识了，但是你会觉得这很奇怪，并想：“ Gum？口香糖的那个 'gum' 吗？”
What? What?What is...dentist? Chewing?No, I don't know, I don't get it."
什么东西？牙医跟口香糖有什么关系？不，我不知道，我不懂。”
"Gums" are basically the pink-- can you get in there? -- the pink part above your teeth.
我们在这里说的 "gums" （牙龈）指的是这个粉色的，看得到吗？牙齿上方粉色的这个部分。
So if this is a picture of my black teeth, I have a pink tissue above my mouth or in my mouth that surrounds my teeth like this, and these are called "gums".
如果这个黑色的部分是我画的牙齿，在我嘴巴上面或在我嘴巴里有一些粉色的组织像这样包裹着我的牙齿，这些就叫 "gums"。
It is always plural.We don't say "gum", we don't say "my gum", we say "gums".So in your mouth, hopefully you have teeth.
这个单词一般都是用复数形式。我们不说 "gum"，不说 "my gum"，而说 "gums"。在你的嘴巴里，但愿你有牙齿。
Some of you might not have all of your beautiful teeth, but that's okay.Don't worry.
有些人可能牙齿有所残缺，但那没关系。不要担心。
You have your teeth, and you have gums.So "gums" is the pink part here.Sometimes your tooth is sore.
有牙齿就有牙龈。所以牙龈就是这里粉色的部分。有时候你的牙齿会痛。
So you might say, "Oh, my tooth is sore, I have a toothache."Say this with me: "toothache", "toothache", "I have a toothache."
所以你可能会说：“啊，我的牙齿痛，我牙疼。”跟我读："toothache"，"toothache"，表示牙疼时可以说 "I have a toothache"。
That means there's something wrong with your tooth, it's causing you pain.
意思是你的牙齿出了问题，让你很痛。
Uh-oh! Most of the time, the reason why you have a toothache is because you have a cavity, "cavity".Now, a "cavity" is simply a hole in your tooth.
啊哦！你牙疼一般都是因为你有了 "cavity" （龋洞）。"cavity" 就是你牙齿上的一个洞。
So this is a beautiful, red, healthy tooth, and what happens is a cavity makes a hole in your tooth,
这个红色的是一颗美丽健康的牙齿，龋会在你的牙齿上开一个洞，
and it begins to rot right down to the root or the vein in your tooth, and that causes you pain.
然后开始一直烂到牙根或牙齿底部的血管，而那就是让你牙痛的元凶。
So a "cavity" basically just means a hole in your tooth.
所以 "cavity" 就是你牙齿上的一个洞。
And because this is rotting away, it causes pain in the nerve in your mouth, causing you to get a toothache, not a good feeling, not a good situation.
因为这会一直烂下去，它会导致嘴巴里的神经痛，让你牙齿痛，这可不好受，情况不妙。
Unfortunately, the dentist is very expensive in Canada, so I recommend that you brush your teeth at least two times a day, to help with the bad breath as well.
不幸的是，在加拿大看牙医非常贵，所以我建议你每天至少刷两遍牙，这也有助于改善口臭。
You may have known a lesson on bad habits, bad breath.We don't like that.
你可能知道我有一节课是关于坏习惯的，里面就有口臭。我们可不喜欢那样。
One of the reasons you may have bad breath, or someone, not you, is because you have a cavity.
你可能有口臭的原因之一，别人，不是你，有口臭的原因之一是因为你有龋洞。
So what you're going to do is you're going to call the dentist.You are going to make an appointment.
所以你要做的就是给牙医打电话。你要做个预约。
Now, you might have noticed that I have written n-n-v-v-v-n-n-n-n-n-n-n-n; "n" means "noun".
你可能注意到了我在这些词前面写了 "n" 和 "v"，"n" 指的是名词。
So this means it is a noun, and "v" means a "verb".
这表示它是个名词，而 "v" 指的是动词。
So what's going to happen is you're going to call the dentist's office, and you are going to "make an appointment".
所以你要给牙医办公室打电话，要做个预约。
"Make" is a verb, so you're going to call and make an appointment.
"make" 是个动词，所以你要打电话并做预约。
The dentist's receptionist is going to say, "Tomorrow at seven? No."They will arrange a time for you.
牙医那的接待员会说：“明天七点？不行。”他们会给你安排时间。
I know sometimes talking on the telephone is difficult, so if you can communicate with a dentist through email,
我知道有时候在电话上讲话很难，所以如果你可以通过电子邮件和牙医沟通，
or if you can actually go to a dentist's office, it will be easier for you.
或者能亲自去一趟牙医的办公室，对你来说会更简单。
But it doesn't matter if you call, email, or go there, you're going to make an appointment.
但是不管你是打电话、发邮件还是亲自去，你都要做预约。
What's going to happen is the doctor is going to give you a check-up...or the dentist, sorry, the tooth doctor is going to give you a "check-up".
医生会给你做个检查......牙医，不好意思，治牙齿的医生会给你做个检查。
This just means he or she will check your teeth, check if they're healthy; make sure you don't have any cavities; make sure your gums are okay.
这就是说他（她）会检查一下你的牙齿，看看它们是否健康，确保你没有龋洞，确保你的牙龈没问题。
They may even give you an X-ray.That's very expensive, too.
他们甚至还可能会给你拍个 X 光。那也非常贵。
An "X-ray" is a picture of the bone structure in your mouth.
“X 光片”就是你嘴巴里的骨骼结构的照片。
The X-ray lets the doctor know any additional things, cavities you can't see on an X-ray,
X 光片能让医生知道所有额外的事情，在 X 光片上看不到龋洞，
but if there's inflammation or something wrong with the inside of your teeth, the X-ray will show the dentist this.
但是如果你的牙齿发炎了或内部有什么问题，牙医从 X 光片上都能看出来。
Then it's time for the drill.If you have a cavity, the dentist is going to take a drill...
然后就该 "drill" （钻子）上场了。如果你有龋洞，牙医会拿个钻子......
Now, you may know the word "drill".Let's say you wanted to hang something in your apartment.
你可能认识 "drill" 这个单词。假设你想在公寓里挂点东西。
You're going to take a screw and a machine, that doesn't look like a drill, but that's okay.
你要拿个螺钉和一个机器，那看起来不像电钻，但没关系。
And, basically, a "drill" is going to make a bigger hole in your tooth.Guess what, this really, really, really hurts.
基本上电钻会在你的牙齿上开一个更大的洞。跟你说，这非常非常非常痛。
So it's like taking a hammer or an electrical thing and going "aah" and drilling your tooth.They usually give you some kind of help.
就是拿个锤子或插电的东西，然后钻你的牙齿。他们通常会给你某种缓解疼痛的东西。
They usually give you some kind of drugs or medicine so you don't feel the drill going in.
他们通常会给你一些药，这样你就感觉不到电钻的动作了。
So what happens is they take their beautiful dentist drill; they drill a hole; and they drill all the bad stuff out of your cavity.
他们会拿漂亮的牙医电钻，钻个洞，把你的龋洞里所有的坏东西都钻出来。
Then they take what's called a "filling".I forgot to write this down.
然后他们会用叫做 "filling" （填充物）的东西。我忘了把这个写下来了。
A "filling" basically fills your cavity with usually a white or sometimes silver -- gold if you're really, really, really rich -- compound
填充物一般是指用白色的物体，有时候也会用银，如果你非常非常非常有钱，也可以用黄金去填充你的龋洞，
and it stops the hole or it stops the cavity from growing.
它能防止龋洞扩大。
So they drill, and then they fill or they put in a filling to cover your tooth.
所以他们先用电钻打洞，然后用填充物填充你的牙齿。
The next thing that they're going to do is they're going to have to put a cap on your tooth so that food or foreign objects, like an airplane, doesn't go back into your tooth.
他们要做的下一件事是在你牙齿上放一个 "cap"，这样食物或异物，比如飞机，就进不了你牙齿里了。
So a "cap" is basically like a lid or a hat.It's a tooth hat, it's a hat for your tooth to protect it from all the drilling.
所以 "cap" （帽，盖，罩）就是个像盖子或帽子一样的东西。是一个牙帽，是为牙齿准备的帽子，可以在钻过洞后把它保护起来。
So a "cap" is what happens at the end after the drilling.After the filling, you get a beautiful cap.
所以 "cap" 就是在钻完牙之后用的。填充完牙齿之后，你会得到一个美丽的牙帽。
Maybe when you go for your check-up or your appointment, you don't have a cavity.Yay! What they will do is they will clean your teeth.
可能你去检查或看牙医时发现你没有龋洞。耶！这时候他们会做的就是清洁你的牙齿。
They usually use a fluoride solution, and they scrape all the dirty stuff off your teeth.This is called "tartar", oh, not "tarnar", excuse me.
他们通常会用一种氟化物溶液把你牙齿上所有的脏东西都擦掉。这个叫做 "tartar" （牙垢），哦，不是 "tarnar"，请原谅我。
So this is called "tartar", and it's basically a build-up of dirty, dirty, dirty stuff on your teeth.So they scrape it so your teeth are nice and clean.
这个叫 "tartar"，就是在你牙齿表面累积的脏东西。他们会把它擦掉，这样你的牙齿就变得好看又干净了。
Maybe there is no help for your tooth.Maybe the cavity has eaten all of your tooth, and your teeth, tooth needs to be taken out.
可能你的牙齿已经没救了。可能龋洞已经把你的整个牙齿侵蚀掉了，需要把你的牙齿拿掉。
What happens in this case is you have two options.You can get an implant.
这种情况下，你有两个选择。你可以做个 "implant"。
Do you know another place you can get implants?An "implant" means basically, a fake tooth.
你知道可以弄 "implant" 的另一个地方吗？"implant" （假体）就是指假的牙齿。
So they put another drill in your mouth, and they're going to put, like, a nail or a screw, and they just put a fake tooth, and they screw it into your mouth.
他们会把另外一个电钻放进你的嘴里，放个钉子或螺钉，然后拿个假的牙齿，把它旋进你嘴里。
It looks real, it's wonderful.Now did I forget to mention that the doctor is very, very, very expensive and painful?
看上去很真，非常棒。我是不是忘了说看医生非常非常非常贵而且很痛苦？
Or the other option you could go with is a false tooth, or plural, false teeth.A lot of older ladies and gentlemen have false teeth.
你的另一个选择是假牙。很多年纪比较大的女士和先生都有假牙。
You can take them out, scare the grandkids.So you have options.
可以把它们取出来，吓唬孙子孙女。你可以自己选。
If you have money, you can have beautiful new teeth, no one will ever know you had a cavity.
如果你有钱，你就可以拥有美丽的新牙齿，谁也不会知道你有龋洞。
