Before anyone gets upset, I do plan on going to the dentist. I actually have an appointment set up for March to start getting my work done so that I may, HOPEFULLY, get braces at the end of the year, and the only thing that kept me from going sooner was lack of insurance, which I now have through my employer and Delta Dental. Last time I went, which was last June, I was told I have 3 cavities on a couple of my molars and a small cavity on one of my top central incisors that need work, a broken filling in the back, and apparently a missing filling? A couple of years ago, I went to a local dentist and they caught a cavity on my first molar. I thought they filled it, but apparently, they only did a temporary filling. It’s never bothered me. No pain or anything until recently, I got an abscess by that tooth. I got antibiotics for it and it went away. Since then, I’ve kept sanitizing the area with antiseptic, then placing some of that temp filling you buy at the store. Just to keep it closed up a bit til I can get to the dentist. I don’t know how I ended up with so many cavities. I brush when I go to bed, again in the morning, I use mouthwash both times, and I floss at least 3 times a day. I don’t drink much milk because I don’t like it, but I have been taking Calcium and Vitamin D pills everyday and still…Cavities.

Well, what I want to know is, can you REALLY stop decay once it’s started like they said in this article? Or is a dentist the only one who can do it?

yesterday i went to the dentist and she did this thing where she measured how far she can stick this thing in my gums. she said some of my teeth have periodontal disease. Every time she measured my gum, it hurt like hell and bled alot!! She was very rough, and did a moderate cleansing of my teeth which also hurt a hole lot!! Now I have to go back in 2 weeks so she can see if my gums look better or worse and said she is going to do a deep cleansing

will the dentist give me pain killers or numbing stuff cause it really really hurt last time and I dont want to do it again!!

anyone have any experience with this?

Before the orthodontist takes off my braces, he would like me to have gun surgury to get rid of the excess scar tissue build up I have since I dont have a gap with my two front teeth any more. He said he wanted to do this surgury so it will help my two front teeth stay together when the braces are off. Is this a minor surgury? I was 5 the last time I had gum surgery. Thanks!

I’ve visited my dental hygienist just 1 time this year and 1 last year, and this last time I went it made my enamel frontal teeth more visible. Is this normal? or does their cleaning make your teeth deteriorate or your enamel to show more? is it possible and they don’t want to admit it,so they won’t stop having patients?

Let me prefice this by saying I know I’m an idiot for taking care of this issue so late…

I was supposed to graduate from a state institution in Colorado in Dec of 2002, but instead of getting my diploma, I got a letter saying I was 3 credits short of graduation. Now, a little over 5 years later I want to get this taken care of. I’ve emailed my department chair asking him for help with the process, but I was also curious about some other options.

The thing is, I would like to change fields, and am wondering if there’s a possiblity of me being able to use any of the credits I have in my unfinished degree and transfer those over to a different degree. Do you think it’s possible to get a different degree without starting all over? I mean, at least not having to retake classes I already took last time around.

Any ideas? I plan on asking my dept. chair these questions also, but just wanted to get a feel for what to expect.

I’m going to Mexico on vacation soon, specifically to Cozumel. I’ve been there before so I know we will be provided with a bottle of purified water in the bathroom. I recently had to have dentures fitted and I have found that warm water is best for cleaning the denture adhesive off the false teeth. When I go to Cozumel am I ok to use the warm tap water to clean the dentures as long as I rinse them with mouthwash afterwards? Or should I stick to the purified water provided. I don’t want to get any nasty tummy bugs, managed to avoid them last time we were there.

I enlisted in the United States Navy 2 years ago right when I graduated out of high school. I’m half way done with my contract and I have the desire to go back to school and continue my education. My girlfriend recommended me to take some online courses. That way when I do get out of the military then I won’t have to do so much when go to college.

But, I feel that I won’t learn better online rather than taking courses on a traditional college campus, sitting in a classroom and taking notes from an instructor. Considering the fact that it has been 3 years since I graduated from high school and I practically forgotten everything that I have learned since the last time I ever sat in a classroom.

I just want to know if anyone out there knows the advantages and disadvantages of taking courses on campus and online. Please give me an explanation of your answer.

Thank you!

My grandma went to her anual dentist appointment, she has a full prosthetic denture on the bottom of her mouth, usually when she goes there for a check up the "dentist helper" takes the whole denture out and cleans the dentures and then they clean her mouth and check for sores and things like that, last time she went to the dentist the lady who cleaned her dentures didn’t remove the dentures from her mouth and cleaned the dentures while on my grnadma’s mouth, she told her that it is not necessary to take them off every time. So her question is, has anyone experienced this? is it ok to clean her dentures while still on? should they take them completely off to clean them? this happens only when she goes to the dentist, other than that she does it herself every day, she takes them off and cleans them at night. Any advise would be greatly appreciate it.
