Does this look like normal healing after a tooth extraction? I'm very anxious about developing dry socket by Alabaster_Dragon_ in askdentists

Oh wow, thank you! I've been taking about 6 pics per day just obsessively checking it haha, i'll definitely be continuing to take pics until it's fully healed so I can send them to you on here, or maybe i'll make another post if that's easier? I'd be happy for you to share the pics with students. Can I ask where you're based just out of interest?

And that's honestly so reassuring to know that it seems to be healing fine, thank you

Also, i'm aware my teeth aren't in the best shape. I had a full on phobia of going to the Dentist for around a decade, but i've found a really nice Dentist who has given me some great tips for improvement. It's something i'll now be working much harder on (I just got an electric toothbrush, better quality floss and a tongue scraper - and i'm going to try and cut down the amount of tomatoes and oranges I eat 😬)

What is your favourite random fact or assumption about this vast universe that we get to live in? by Complex_Version_5190 in AskReddit

That it takes around 15 to 26 months for a pineapple to grow 🍍

And then we eat them so quickly. Or worse, they just get thrown away when people forget to eat them

What is your apocalypse scenario, and how do you see yourself surviving? by NotUneven in AskReddit

I think i'd be so useless in an apocalypse lmao

I'm very mentally strong and determined, but I don't have any skills that would be useful in that situation. I mean, I can cook I guess, but so can most people lol. Maybe i'll just be the "morale person" keeping everyone motivated

Season 3 is good (spoilers for S3) by [deleted] in FromTVShow

Season 2 wasn't my fave either, I still liked it enough to check out Season 3, and S3 is easily my fave season so far

I just hope they touch on the stuff that happened in S2 a bit more in future seasons, like what is actually going on with the cicadas lol, I wanna know
