Teeth is it!

Part of my annual physical exam today was a visit to the dentist. After she announced to the entire room that I had 2 cavities that need to be filled, we had this interesting conversation:

DENTIST: Where are you from?

ME: Quezon City

DENTIST: No, where are you originally from?

ME: Quezon City

DENTIST: Where were you born?

ME: Uhm... Quezon City

DENTIST: But you have foreign blood, right?

ME: My grandfather was Spanish. Why do you ask?

DENTIST: Because your teeth aren't typically Filipino. 

Gosh! After being told I look like a foreigner so many times, it's very unusual to hear that my teeth look foreign, too.
