There has been some interesting outside of the industry sponsorships over the years. Your standard gym, health food and car ones. When we heard about Max Arent and his orthodontic sponsorship we had to try find out how and why he decided to promote the company and what sort of perks he is getting.


- Tell us about how this chance to get some cheap dental came about?
Well about two years ago I met this little Avalon ripper Guy Williment. He was about 13 years old and really starting shine. Within the next 12 months I found myself consistently having to compete with his talent, especially in the small stuff the Northern Beaches of Sydney are renowned for - chucking out full Air Roll Spinners on half a foot waves like nothing matters! Little smartass.
Anyway the same way BP (Ben Player) kind of helped me growing up with direction I tried to help Guy out and do what I could to help him realise his own potential and what it's going to take to make it professional. I then met Guy's father Doug over dinner one evening and being an orally observant man he noticed I could do with some work.
We came to a promotional agreement and now I ride for Williment Orthodontics in turn for a complete complimentary treatment. Pretty funny but it makes sense though. We are both marketing toward the same demographic so ideally it works well for both ends.

- Did you think about your teeth before sourcing out the dentist, was it an overall plan?
Mum always knew that I needed them, but we weren't a wealthy family and just couldn't afford it.
So in a way this was some sort of 'oral god sent'. Mum was stoked.

- How important is good dental hygiene for young people, what do you see as the biggest problem with your mates teeth?
Wild Turkey and Colas on the weekends!  No, the Northern Beaches is a well off end of Sydney and most of my friends all have what you would call 'five star smiles'. Dental health is super important, up until I received the braces I was copping calls like "tic tac teef" and "boobie trap mouth" on the reg. Now I am going to have a dial brighter than the Cheshire cat.

- Is this new work your getting going to hopefully increase the sexual appeal of Max?
Yeah baby! I get them off christmas next year. So lock up your freaking daughters, 2012 the year of Max.

- Would you class this sort of treatment cosmetic surgery like face lifts and boob jobs?
I guess so. I have a pretty wild shnoz about the size of the Grand Canyon so I could probably do with a nose job. Know anyone?
