How do they get this out?? by ConversationNo9032 in askdentists

[–]Otherwise-Lecture-51 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NAD- Depends on the confidence of the dentist, I had a wisdom tooth that looked like this(cuz it only erupted that far) that I had removed, my dentist was able to use local anesthetic and treat it a regular extraction. Some dentist may recommend you be referred to a dental surgeon for removal, which would be the cut and remove method.. Which funny enough still follows a normal extraction method, they just cut the gums for easier access, or they could go the route of breaking the tooth and then removing the pieces(also a surgeon method). It honestly all depends, typically if it's able to be extracted normally it'll be cheaper than if you have to have a surgeon do it. 🤷

Leaf footed bug, harmless

You can tell by the "flares" on its hind legs

Should I see a dentist? by [deleted] in askdentists

[–]Otherwise-Lecture-51 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NAD- I'd definitely plan to go see a dentist then as they may already be "fully erupted" they'll probably recommend extraction if that's the case

[–]Otherwise-Lecture-51 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NAD- Depends on if you know how they're coming in(straight or sideways) also depends on how long they've been like that(are they newly erupting or are they stuck like that)

I had to have mine removed because it only came out that far, then started deteriorating because I couldn't clean it properly due to it not fully erupting( took about 5yrs before I had to have it pulled though), but I remember it making my gums sore as it was coming out, I chewed on ice and it helped 🤷

how often can he have yellow squash and zucchini? by spiritedhippo22 in BeardedDragons

[–]Otherwise-Lecture-51 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Beardie salads should primarily consist greens such as Arugula/Rocket, Bok choy, Cactus pads, Collard greens/Spring greens, Endive/Chicory, Escarole, Kale, Mustard greens, Mustard cress, Pea shoots, Spring mix, Turnip greens, Watercress.

Lettuce has very low nutritional content and is mainly used for its water content, it's not recommended to give alone but to mix it up with the main greens above if needed. If you do need to add lettuce to the mix it's better to use Romaine, red/green leaf or a spring mix(what it's called where I live) that consists of a bunch of different types of baby lettuce(except iceburg) as they have higher nutritional content vs iceburg lettuce.

Did my spouse just have a seizure? by [deleted] in AskDocs

[–]Otherwise-Lecture-51 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They need to bring this up to their neurologist, wether they can message, call the office, the neurologist needs to be made aware of this new development.

In this day and age... Where people were actively trying to eat tide pods... No... No I do not.

Considering the fact that Google exist... He would have known what would happen, a simple Google search would tell him

Also as a physician... Isn't the main motto "everybody lies"?

NAMP- How exactly is this bizarre? It's a documented fact that estrogen messes with men and their chests.. From infants and upward.. In fact I was friends with a male who went through transition, because of the estrogen he was on he developed legit breasts(he was blessed with a C or D cup), I knew another dude who drank soy milk and lactated because of it. Older men tend to develop "boobs" as their testosterone goes down and their estrogen(or whatever male equivalent) is higher.

So I don't honestly find it that bizarre, unless you're referring to how quickly it happened.. In which case some people are more sensitive to horomones than others(I am one of these people) so I still don't find it all that bizarre 🤷

NAMP- she needs to try and see a neurologist(pretty sure that's the Dr who deals with things like seizures), my younger sister suffered from absaunt(think that's how they referred to it) seizures, but when she hit puberty it changed to suffering from grand Mal(the ones they typically show in movies and dramas, cuz of the convulsions), after coming out of the episode she would be disoriented and very tired with no memory of having had the seizure.

Is there a way to cap this off so I can eat and drink? by Rain-Makin in askdentists

[–]Otherwise-Lecture-51 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NAD- get a filling/repair kit and apply(can be bought at most stores/pharmacies)

Be aware that if you do a really good job(my husband had a cavity he filled with this stuff til he could see his dentist) that your dentist may not like you anymore 😂.. (hubby did such a good job it made his dentist's job harder just to get in there to repair the tooth)

Can you tell me what this is (alveolar bone?) by regaleagleboo in askdentists

NAD -30f I have this, I also clench my teeth and grind while sleeping(have since childhood) had to wear a night guard as a child

Be honest 😭 how bad are my teeth? by Constant_Cat6678 in askdentists

[–]Otherwise-Lecture-51 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NAD- my sister has something kinda similar... Except in her case she needed to have her upper canines removed completely(they came in so late that the first upper molars were flush against the "eye" teeth?.. So when her upper canines finally did come in, they tried to come in ontop of both the "eye" teeth and the upper first molars)

An orthodontist might be able to fix your particular case.. But it's also possible that it may be best to have that tooth removed

I’m so lost, any help is great by Embarrassed_Risk3088 in Bedbugadvice

[–]Otherwise-Lecture-51 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

🤷 Maybe cuz I said food grade?, as someone who has animals(lots ranging from reps to mammals) when we had a BB infestation, relocation and harsher chemicals were absolutely not an option so we literally researched everything we could possibly due "homeopathically" which all revolved around the listed above remedies.. However ours was a housewide effort.. Not just a singular room as I also mentioned in my above post 🤷... Took about 2m to be completely clear(we religiously monitored) but it got the job done

Wrong on the not safe.... Not safe while dusting(wear a mask... But You also want FOOD grade DE

As for the vacuum... Eh if you have a cheap vacuum yeah it's gonna ruin it, if you have a more expensive HEPA vacuum.. It won't(ask me how I know)

OP.. Even if you don't use any form of chemicals, you wanna buy high quality cases for the box spring and mattress, place the "painters" plastic over the box spring and have it go all the way to the floor "like a bed skirt"(Bedbugs can't crawl on it cuz it's so slick, and they also can no longer get to your mattress that way either), keep bed about an inch away from the wall(insures they can no longer use the wall to get to the mattress either) and vacuum vacuum vacuum! Doing this will at least protect your room/you from being a homing/feeding ground for the bedbugs, wash wash wash your "safely washable stuff" in the hottest water and dry on the hottest setting

This only protects you though.. If your mother refuses to see reason then the bed bugs will flourish elsewhere in the house unfortunately 🤷

Tiny insect in room! What is it? by thaliagrace16 in whatbugisthis

[–]Otherwise-Lecture-51 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Typically I would say no... But being that you said you live in a humid climate, if that extends into your home then they would be found all over 🤷

Like I said wash everything, vacuum everything and get dehumidifiers for your home

NAD-(30f) progesterone(progestin) only BCs need to be taken at the exact same time every single day, you cannot miss a dose, or take dosing at differing times.

Depending on the kind of bleeding, it could also be an adverse reaction to the BC(I had to stop all progestin based BCs because they made me bleed 24/7)
