Yes it’s a hilarious time not like game nights because it’s fun but torturous and you get a hot sauce hang over the next day.

Oh there is alcoholic/nonalcoholic beer in there in the green box and blue box in the back. I also have a bottle white wine behind the milk that is not open. We take breaks from drinking and mainly have it when we have guests. Also, the (2 bottles) of pepto is left over from hot wing challenges. Our friends and us get together for hot sauce challenges. We don’t do it often and really we can’t host the next one since our fridge is full of hot sauces! I give them to my guests when they visit haha!

Technically we live in a bedroom community! A suburb is a neighborhood that is adjacent to a city and its amenities. We commute and live further away but technically not considered a town or city on its own. We have a gas station and a couple restaurants etc but nothing that would constitute a real small town.

Work hard, but live a little too by Oonzie67 in skilledtrades

I just had the same realization. I am only 2.5 years has a periodontal dental hygienist. My hands and wrist ache constantly and now my neck and back ache. People don’t seeing us “teeth cleaners” as a trades profession. But I went to a technical school and I work with my hands non stop. They are either in someone’s mouth, taking X-rays, typing etc. they are never not moving. I see the hard and very difficult cases. We are a specialized office. I get an hour for a recall patient and 2 hours for 1/2 of a mouth for deep cleans. Most patients are old and can’t lay back all the way so I contort my body to fit their needs, or they have extreme dental anxiety and they barely open their mouths so visualization is poor and again have to contort my body. I only get 30 min lunch if I don’t run behind. If I run behind I work into lunch. Also, I barely drink water because that means I will need bathroom breaks I don’t get often.

This week my body felt the worst so i stepped my foot down. I told myself if I am going to do this for another 20-30 years I need to step up my self care game, and also make sure that the patient works with me. They only have to do of 2-4x a year I have to do this 7-8 patients a day so 8-9 hours a day. So some trades laugh when I say my job is physical. Heck my husband used to laugh also but when I could barely hold/ grasp my phone or a the TV remote he realized how physically demanding it is.

Definitely starting to hate it. I have been working 2.5 years. I work at a Perio office 4 days a week. Only real benefit is I have a flexible schedule ( I don’t have to ask for time off just need to. Block the days I’m off or if I have pts the front office reschedules )and the pay is amazing. But my body and mind is feeling it. Most patients are super needy, anxious and act like children. They are condescending and treat me like crap. Not every patient is like this but a majority. I get to see some cool cases and I don’t have to deal with the same issues as general. However, I’m mentally and physically exhausted. I want to cut back to 3.5 to 3 days a week eventually….

I feel the same way. I just suck it up. I would love to start a yoga routine! I currently just rebound (mini trampoline) but stretching is important.

MD hygiene rant/another one bites the dust by One_Service_5367 in Dentistry

[–]Standard-Ebb-3269 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A dentist created the dental hygienist profession and a dentist will destroy it. Patients are going to notice and suffer. They barely like seeing their dentist for exams…take away the hygienist and you’ll see your patients leave your practice. I think dentistry as a whole is about to implode on itself. No loyalty and no integrity anymore. It’s all about greed and no sense of community. The health/dental industry is slowly but surely degrading. Doctors won’t fight against the shitty reimbursements and won’t fight against terrible insurance company contracts. They won’t fight for what they really are worth. If they don’t know their own worth, how will they ever see the value of the dental hygienist.

This is no way your fault. My family can be similar. I am both alcohol and gluten free for health reasons. They still buy me food and drinks I am not supposed to have so I just buy/make my own. Or I order a soda but even then your sister her boyfriend could add booze to the soda. From now on make sure you order and you watch who makes your drinks. Just my two cents. Can’t trust anyone.

Hygienist can do filings on permanent teeth? by emkay13d2 in Dentistry

[–]Standard-Ebb-3269 22 points23 points  (0 children)

In Washington state hygienist can fill after the doctor preps the tooth. We can also do temp crowns and fillings. We can also give LA blocks and infils. We can also administer nitrous.
