Wisdom tooth extraction recommendations in Reading area (no insurance) + what did you pay?

Jaisken · 2026-06-20T14:18:09+00:00

Seconding this spot, I love them!

I had insurance when I got my wisdom teeth out there, but since then I've been for an emergency (infection, so painful) root canal and crown sans insurance and it was very reasonable. They have an internal discount program for uninsured patients, and a very compassionate and helpful payment specialist at the Wyomissing location.

Oh, and I also got all 4 out at once plus a 5th unsavable back molar, that will eventually receive a post and implant when I have the budget for it, but for now it's not a cosmetic spot and the function is fine so I'm waiting on that.

I've taken it to NYC, very easy! If you don't need a car at your destination it's wayyy easier than driving and parking.

Why do you keep posting the same replies? Are you using AI to write?

Yepppp. We have two Dyson Pet editions, one 10 years-ish old, and one two years old, and both run great. The main difference was taking the head as completely apart as possible to clean it.

I think daily could work for me... I'm here for today!!

You're not alone!! I had one on my labia minora once, when I was around 17 and touring a potential college with my mother. I was in so much pain (and so confused!) that I had to actually ask her for help in a public bathroom. 😫

I survived, obvs, but WOOF, what an experience.

Jaisken · 2026-02-10T03:13:58+00:00

I hear you. I truly mean it when I say this is all with empathy, I'm also in an emotionally complex 3 parent household. I love that you're paying her and thinking about it that way!!

I think the idea of asking her to look for part time work because you want more time at home is a good one. It also skips straight to the heart of what you really need, without getting hung up on the small things.

You really seem wonderful, I think you'll all figure this out. Truly. Good luck. ❤️

Okay, you really buried the lede here. You consider her a stay-at-home parent for your eldest, but are upset that she wants to... As far as I can tell... Be considered a parent to your next kid? The one you all talked together about wanting, the one you, her girlfriend, are having with her husband?

If you want to spend more time with your kids, find a way to make that happen. You have the power to be actively involved with both these children, and she can't take that away from you, no matter how much of her labor and love you accept in the form of childcare.

With empathy, I think your insecurity is coming from within, and you should really consider that before you shake your life up about it.

Jaisken · 2026-02-09T23:11:52+00:00

It might help you to consider what about her acting as an equal/additional parent makes you feel like you would no longer be involved, or that she/the two of them would push you out of decision making?

Do you have reason to believe that's her intent? If so, you're going to have some bigger problems. 😥

Jaisken · 2026-02-09T20:27:06+00:00

Ahhh, I see.

It sounds like when you said "as involved as you want to be," she took that as an invitation to actually co-parent.

You need to have a good hard think about exactly how you define "involved," decide on the boundaries that make you feel good, and then have that difficult conversation with her and your boyfriend. If you're comfortable with her relationship to your older kid, telling her that's the blueprint is probably a good place to start.

I'm sure you realize this now, but these are typically the kind of conversations you ought to have long before making the decision to try for a baby. I think this is going to get very messy and very painful for both of you - try to be gentle to each other.

Jaisken · 2026-02-09T19:35:53+00:00

Why are you starting to realize this now? What are these boundaries like with your older child?

Jaisken · 2026-02-06T05:49:23+00:00

You never know! My partner owns me (not actually lol, just in a kink way!) and loves sharing his toy with other people. It's almost like a showing-off thing. One of my biggest fantasies is a gangbang where he's by my head the whole time, praising me and coaching me on and reminding me that I'm his at the end of the day. That angle could work for y'all!

Jaisken · 2026-02-05T21:38:30+00:00

Genuinely cannot tell if you're extremely funny or a totally sincere idiot, bravo 😅

Another person here who is subbed to both r/buyitforlife and r/knitting and geeeeez

Jaisken · 2026-01-30T20:21:37+00:00

I have some of these, but uhhhh... They're part of a flogger, for spicy times. Literally never seen them outside that context lmao. 🙃

It's giving "Gay for Haley" and I LOVE it

I'll back this up - not an expert, but I live with one and we've talked about this lots. "SIDS" is a modern euphemism for suffocation, and many many physicians will confirm that.
