Is it OK to eat just a little bit of toothpaste?
You know when people brush their teeth and then they don't spit it out but just drink some water or juice or alcohol or whatever to rinse their mouths. How bad is doing that?
I have a crooked teeth =/ and i wished i had a perfect smile.?
I`m 15 and i have crooked teeth. My teeth aren`t terribly crooked. If i turn to a certain angle, they "seem" straight. But if i turn my face to the other side my front tooth is obviously not straight x[ . And my problem is that i like to smile, and i smile a lot cause i never think about my teeth when im smiling.. i just can`t help but SMILE. However, i`m just wondering if anyone thinks that someone with crooked teeth should just stop showing their teeth and start smiling with their mouths closed. I mean.. i want to look attractive, but confident at the same time even with teeth that aren`t so perfect. And my family can`t afford braces either so that`s off my to do list..
Who agrees with me when I say if a person don't take care of their teeth and they rot out and run to?
dentist for dentures or veneers should still be considered as yuck mouths cause who's to say they will brush and floss cause their teeth are fake ??????
Are you thinking of getting Zoom teeth whitening?
Don't bother, it is a total scam. My fiance and I got it done, and neither of our teeth are any whiter, and our mouths are covered in painful sores.
How do you treat and eventually get rid of gingivitis?
I'm a 17 year old boy, and..Well, I've been getting lots and lots of sugar..And I never really flossed because it's irritating as hell. My mouth are smaller then my hands, so its hard to get in there with the floss. Maybe you could give me some advice on that?
Anyways, to the point..I've started flossing, but I doubt I'm doing a very good job at it. My gums are inflamed, and swollen..What's stupid though is that I don't think nothing is wrong with them because I don't have anything to compare my gums too, you know? I've never looked at peoples mouths before -_-. I mean, I didn't think that was something I should observe.
My dentist gave me PerioMed for my gingivitis. Um..Its antimicrobial Oral Rinse. It's for my gums, and just a tiny few cavities. But I gotta be honest, I don't trust my dentists. Not after what they did to my dad. I mean, albeit, my dad is very old, but um..You know what, I'm getting off topic here.
Meh...So I swish this crap around in my mouth everynight for 1 minute after brushing and flossing my teeth. And I cal it crap because I can't drink anything afterwards when i go to bed and..I need water for- GOD! I'm doing it again, damnit.
Does this stuff really help gingivitis? I started last week and..I'm not noticing any physical changes. My teeth feel a bit shinier though..Like..Clean, slippery.
What else could I do to treat it? You know what? Screw treating it..
The more important question to me is..
WILL IT GET RID OF IT IF I KEEP DOING IT EVERYNIGHT?
What type of foam bed should I buy for somebody with a lower back pain?
Memory foam bed or High Resilience Foam
Memory foam bed is softer and the Longevity of it is about 6 mouths to 3 years. The high resilience foam has Longevity of about 5-10 years. Which type of bed is better for somebody with lower back pain? I’m assuming High Resilience Foam is a better choice. Right?
What aren't purple teeth considered beautiful?
Famous people all have neon white teeth and I think they look like cheap plastic Target bathroom shelves in their mouths. Yellow teeth look unhealthy but I see nothing wrong with clean, ivory colored (normal) teeth.
Guess no one reads the small print which is the HEART of my question.
These aren't answers - just reactions. Let me rephrase the question...good thing I could care a hoot about points in here...
Thank you Rachel!
Why am I so prone to cavities and suggestions to reduce my risk?
Ok, I have always been prone to cavities. Now I'll admit that in my early 20's I was not always good about brushing my teeth. But now I brush religiously at least 2X and usually 3X per day. I floss daily too. When I go in for cleanings, I always get compliments on how clean my teeth are and how healthy my gums are. However, I have cavities every time anyway! My dentist tells me that some people just have more bacteria in their mouths and I'm one of the lucky ones. He also mentioned acid erosion of the enamel. I do like my soda but I only drink diet so at least there's no sugar involved! I have tried various toothpastes and mouthwashes, including a prescription strength antiseptic mouthwash.
I work for an orthodontist and he says it can be genetic. My mom's side of the family never get cavities. My dad's side are all in dentures. Lucky me. My mom still insists that if I'd just brush my teeth I'd never get another cavity...sigh...
So does anyone have any ideas about ways to reduce my succeptibility to cavities? Or do I just continue being my dentist's best patient? He can buy a boat and a small island to go with it on my payments to him from this year alone! When I win the lottery I'll just get all my teeth replaced with implants and then I'll have a bionic mouth ;-)
Why do people think crazy white teeth look nice?
Am I the only one who thinks people with ridiculously white teeth and too many veneers look frightening? It's not like it looks real.
I'm not talking about normal whitening products or even professional. I'm talking about the kind mouths you see on famous people and news personalities where you need to wear sunglasses.
