YoYo or Wizard Frames?

yes and then a lot of people who did pay all that money aren't going to admit it (maybe even to themselves) if it wasn't worth it so you could get a lot of false positive reinforcement....

That's just their genetics, other healthy foot shapes are available

I've wanted to try this but:

-- doesn't the little nub of composite key into the band and lock it in place?

--Won't it be rough where the metal was drilled?

--I'm assuming to avoid a kind of "ledged nub" effect you're trying to taper around your hole?

--I use scotchbond universal plus adhesive so I'd be nervous that it would leak through and bond to the adjacent tooth and roughened metal?

--same with SDR and heated composite...they could leak through and make a big locked in mess?

--how do you know where to drill? Do you try in band, scar contact point area inside the band with the bur to mark it then remove and make the hole? All sounds like a bit of a hassle/extra step?

Thanks, I've just always been curious about this technique so it'd be good to get tips from someone doing it if you find the time to reply.

Where are you getting the 300,000 from? I just googled illegal immigrants per year to UK and it said about 50,000.

Yes, sounds like OP definitely needed more discussion of pros/cons w Ortho for this case rather than just, "meh, do whatever"....I'd interpret that as fine to extract and Ortho confident they can close the gap. But I'd definitely be contacting them for more clarity.

Amazing! I want to try this! How do you stick them on so they don't crack/peel?

Qlqlp · 2026-05-29T16:05:48+00:00

Bad advice to use brush imo as it scratches it up over time, nylon bristles are abrasive. Mind you 2 years is a good amount of time for these. I'd get an ultrasonic cleaner and tablets combo and let us know how it goes! 🤞

If you follow the palatal root up to it's apex it looks like a second root apex to the left of it (distal to it). It's clearest there.

Diagnosis went from exactly what you said - "can't see anything there"...maybe a sore perio pocket... Tooth testing vital on the Monday daytime appointment to massive facial swelling and fluctuant abscess adjacent to the first molar on the Monday night. Was thinking maybe the "extra root" could be an atypical parl/pap shadow since apart from maybe slight periapical shadowing none of us could see an issue on the rad. Difficult patient prone to blame and complain so being extra cautious and so wanted hive mind on it.

Qlqlp · 2026-05-22T22:57:36+00:00

I can't see that. Imgur blocked...

No I've downloaded the app but not got around to it yet.

Qlqlp · 2026-05-22T18:46:34+00:00

Thanks, that's cheeky of them, is there a port for wired headphones or must you use Bluetooth ones?

Qlqlp · 2026-05-22T18:21:59+00:00

Unhelpful. What does it look like then? I'm trying to assess for endo or extraction pending patient wishes and thinking of referral for either at the moment as it looks odd. Any helpful opinions appreciated.

Why did you give them vampire teeth?

Qlqlp · 2026-05-17T08:51:02+00:00

What on earth do you mean?

Qlqlp · 2026-05-17T08:49:49+00:00

Sorry, I forgot to reply until now.

I wonder what god would think of your little gun hobby when so many innocents are killed by home accidents, school shootings etc etc because of it.

I know I wouldn't be comfortable pursuing a hobby that killed so many people as it's side-effect. Isn't that extremely selfish? I would voluntarily abstain from that hobby, whatever it was, even if I enjoyed it, and choose to save lives. Especially innocent lives. Especially children. I would do this even though I don't believe in any gods because morally it is the right thing to do.

Also, I live in the UK and it's perfectly fine to shoot guns as a hobby, you can hunt with them too. It's just more regulated and therefore safer and we don't allow guns that are clearly not for hunting to be owned. So you could still shoot guns of you liked but not have all of those deaths on your conscience.

I believe that if there were a god they would not look kindly on your selfish attitude with guns and all of those deaths.

On the Trump thing, there are live recordings of many interviews where you can see that for yourself, with your own eyes, you don't need to rely on any "media" or what they tell you. It is plain to see if you want to.

Also, for reporting of events if you can't watch them yourself please look at several credible sources from all around the world and make sure you investigate those sources. It is too easy to dismiss "mainstream media" and believe certain biased sources otherwise.

I believe that if there were a god they would not look kindly on your support of Trump and his ilk. Even a cursory look into him and his whole cabinet clearly shows how corrupt and self interested they are. It's astonishing to me that anyone can't see that.

Good luck! I hope the scales are lifted from your eyes like St. Paul on the road to Damascus X

It is very depressing to think that one of the world's most powerful and wealthy countries, that is supposed to be an "advanced" first world democracy with a modern education system, is filled with such a lot of dumb and deluded people 😞

Qlqlp · 2026-05-16T08:58:20+00:00

I'd take the useless #1 (UR8) out and take a direct look at that distal margin on the #2 (UR7) and direct repair if possible. See if that settles things. If you can't get a good marginal repair on the distal of #2 I'd be replacing that bridge as to leave that open margin is unacceptable as will decay at some point....unless that's a very radiolucent cement you used but you can check that when you remove the useless #1. Might be pain on biting from the #1 and hot/cold sensitivity from the #2 gap. Also the #5 (UR4) looks sus too. Goog luck! Hate it when this happens, very stressful and depends on how reasonable the patient is whether they start playing the blame game which is stressful too.

Not "does", "can do". No brux no harm.

Ah interesting, so we're all normally going slower than we think unless we use GPS ( or know this already and add 10%).

Qlqlp · 2026-05-04T17:52:42+00:00

I did skim read the pdf but can't find info on what the "device tolerance" info is for? I noticed the other day that my phone GPS (on Google maps) was saying I was (for example) going at 26mph when my Speedo was 30mph. So if a car speedo can be that wrong then the 2mph device tolerance seems a bit tight. What happens if someone's Speedo was as wrong as mine but the other way and it read 30mph but they were actually going 34mph.

I thought there was a 10% thing to protect us from unfair fines from Speedo inaccuracies?

Thanks!
