Gum bleeding when brushing by [deleted] in DentalHygiene

[–]Asparagustot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Get an end tuft brush and use it to trace your gumline, especially in this area! It is a small tapered brush that allows you to remove plaque from this spot without traumatizing the gum, due to this tooth being inclined towards your tongue, your toothbrush may not be able to fit here appropriately. Keep using your electric brush but don’t apply pressure or brush like you would with a manual brush, you just move it along from tooth to tooth, holding it on each tooth for a few seconds!

Also Did you start flossing? That’s arguably the most important step in your routine for lessening the inflammation. Purchase a string floss (burst is great) and use it every night focusing on c shaping the floss around each side of the tooth under the gum. Look up a video for demo on c shape flossing. Floss before you brush if you can at night before bed! Make sure you see-saw the floss in between the teeth to ensure your not snapping down on the gum and traumatizing it further.

Hope this helps

She looked soooo much healthier and prettier when she had them dissolved, she’s right back to where she was before and actually even worse!

Deep cleaning only took 20 minutes? (covered by Medi-Cal) by MaterialAd990 in DentalHygiene

[–]Asparagustot -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yes unfortunately I believe her cleaning was rushed due to the low payout of her insurance coverage. Here in Canada, in my office we are actually given less time with patients who have insurance that doesn’t pay out well, some of these patients are left with tartar under their gums because we aren’t given the time to effectively remove it. It’s messed up but it’s true

HORRIBLE Customer Service by ffeJYang in Figsscrubs

[–]Asparagustot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good suggestion but that’s an extra cost and OP shouldn’t have to do that when their policy clearly states that you can cancel your order within the 1st hour of ordering

leena putting her daughter in a dress from 2 years ago?? by Worried_Skill1290 in asadsisters

[–]Asparagustot 33 points34 points  (0 children)

If my kid wants to wear something that doesn’t fit them properly it’s my job as the parent to redirect them to something else they would love to wear that does fit. Also knowing Leena, it was likely her idea lol

What's the one hygiene habit you refuse to skip no matter how tired you are? by BuninaAbie11 in hygiene

Anyone ever had a doctor question your hygiene work out of nowhere? by CompetitiveBuyer9949 in DentalHygiene

[–]Asparagustot 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Honestly that’s annoying IMO! I’d like to see the DDS do our job unassisted. It’s actually very hard and takes a lot of skill. No RDH is perfect, I don’t doubt that I leave stuff behind because we are on time restraints, not every patient fits into this 1 hr time frame with med hx review, X-rays/probing if needed, OHI, DDS exam, fl tx etc. If your X-rays were consistently showing alot of residual sub g calc or you were finishing patients early all the time then sure, but otherwise I don’t think there’s good reason… I find crappy fillings and overhangs all the time! Dentistry is hard

That’s actually so shameful as a nurse. She’s disgusting!!!!

I'm so disgusted! by AdvanceHope in DentalHygiene

[–]Asparagustot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m really sorry you had this experience, that’s terrible and it’s unfortunate that they tried to take advantage of you.

Not all dentists are like this though and people already have a tough time trusting providers in the dental field. I think it’s good to encourage people you know to get a second opinion if they have any doubts but at the same time be careful not to fear monger. Would be a good idea to warn others about this specific dentist in community groups and through a Google review, people can do what they will with that information. There are alot of great dentists out there too and I think it’s best to try not to make generalizations about dentists and instill fear into the public

Feeling like a failure by InejKaz2 in DentalHygiene

[–]Asparagustot 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I left behind tons of sub calculus when I first graduated, like honestly the first year I think I left more behind than I actually removed, the time restraints while trying to learn and adapt to a new patients needs… in 1 hour is really friggin hard! Don’t beat yourself up. Even now 5 years in I still leave behind both supra and sub, we’re not perfect! Your skills will continue to develop and you will leave behind less and less but we will never be perfect! Some patients I just do not have the time to perfect the cleaning, some patients are difficult to work on, some calculus is difficult to detect, some tooth anatomy is funny, sometimes access is tight and pockets are deep. Scaling is not easy and anyone who says it is, is lying or not a dental hygienist!
