“Cotton candy” is also known as “candy floss” or “fairy floss”.

In 1897 a confectioner and a dentist, William Morrison and confectioner John C. Warton worked together on an invention.
They created a centrifuge that would make it very easy to make very finely spun sugar on sticks in very little time.
To add to the irony in 1921 another dentist, Joseph Lascaux, patented a similar machine.
Joseph called this a “cotton candy machine” and that name stuck from then on.

So when people say that dentists are conspiring to create more work,
we clearly know that there is no proof of any conspiracies at all.
Also, that the advice to floss more has no double meaning …at all.
