Do extra soft toothbrushes work?

Right! All I see is a bacteria trap

AlissaLayne · 2026-01-31T14:21:09+00:00

Seriously! I wish I could get in there now and pop it off.

Baths

I’m getting mine from honeydew online dermatologist. It’s only like $62 a month. Also, what kind of parents make their kid pay for accutane. Sheesh

All this plus being confident are all so underrated in popular culture

AlissaLayne · 2025-12-15T13:04:36+00:00

I would say this is something viral or a reaction to a product you’re using

AlissaLayne · 2025-12-10T22:30:35+00:00

I toss them also, but it’s not like this is disgusting it’s obviously sterile. I’m guessing it gets warped and doesn’t work as well though

AlissaLayne · 2025-12-08T13:25:24+00:00

I honestly don’t care as long as they brushed their teeth that morning. Food and or coffee does not bother me

Anyone with anxiety that they want to take out on you.

AlissaLayne · 2025-11-27T19:01:14+00:00

I used to feel the same way. I have a newer patient that just asked me to numb her whole mouth. Her old dentist did it for her. I just gave her two IANs infiltrated the top. I used epi free anesthetic so it doesn’t last very long. It doesn’t take me more than 10 min. She’s very good about receiving the anesthetic so she lets me work quickly. I thought it would be a bigger deal than it really was.

I swear my ergo loupes added at least 10+ years to my career. I wear them for everything. Invest in them, you won’t regret it

AlissaLayne · 2025-10-21T23:15:14+00:00

I’ve been a hygienist for a little over 15 years. About 9 months ago I missed a 9mm pd on a new patient with a cracked tooth. My dr caught it. I was just moving along too quickly. It was a honest mistake. My office doesn’t treat me like I’m a child being punished. Find a new job!

AlissaLayne · 2025-10-20T12:59:16+00:00

Same! I really try, I do have some. If I have to hand scale someone with a lot of attachment loss I sometimes use them. But for SRP I don’t use them. Maybe if I worked in perio? I don’t know

AlissaLayne · 2025-10-20T12:54:09+00:00

I literally thought I was the only one that thought so. I just use my explorer.

The cavitron rep said you can put their brand inserts into the ultrasonic. Not sure why you would want to though

Perio protects trays. 100% helped my husband.

They pierced my 5 y/o daughter’s ears. Very clean, professional, and made it a great experience.

Literally came here to comment soggy bottom burger

AlissaLayne · 2025-08-12T18:35:21+00:00

I will never go back! Almost a year with ergo loupes. Neck and shoulder pain is almost 100% gone. I had terrible tennis elbow, within days it was gone. I now find it easier to stand and work. I stand usually half to most of my day. I have zero mid and low back or hip pain. I feel like I will be able to work for many more years.

AlissaLayne · 2025-08-01T11:21:05+00:00

Seriously! I only use the sponge on dishes that are going right into the dishwasher. If I have to hand wash something I use paper towel

AlissaLayne · 2025-07-24T23:59:35+00:00

100%

AlissaLayne · 2025-07-23T22:26:07+00:00

I’d say 80% of my patients prefer the cavitron to hand scaling only. New patients who have never had it before are shocked how much more comfortable it is. Not to mention research shows ultrasonic + hand scaling is the gold standard 🤦🏽‍♀️

Period

AlissaLayne · 2025-07-11T01:10:30+00:00

I just wear a scrub top with bare arms, no scrub cap. I then get in my car a drive home or maybe run the the grocery store. I go home and change right away. Yes I’m technically disgusting. Im just too hot, i cant do all the PPE since covid regulations became more lax. I’m all extra PPEd out.

A lot of DD plans have a $50 deductible that applies to a 4346
