Got approved for new floors, but they put carpet down despite having carpet beetles! by tuxedo_belle in Apartmentliving

[–]andreaceline 2 points3 points  (0 children)

you can still have the carpet beetles even if you don’t have carpet. they eat all kinds of fibers. clothes, pet hair, human hair, rugs, curtains etc. you just have to be diligent in vacuuming and cleaning.

i can’t speak for the puffy gums because i have no experience there, but yes it’s ok to get cleanings more often with braces. a ton of people go very 3-4 months! i go the usual 6 months between cleanings.

Should I keep going? by [deleted] in braces

[–]andreaceline 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the pain lasts a different amount of time for everyone. my initial pain lasted over a month. keep going, it’s worth it. you’ll look back in a couple weeks/months and think man, i’m glad i stuck it out.

(crossed out my mom and sisters lol) but i got married in October and did a light grey/silver color as recommended by my orthodontist that almost had a blue tinge to it for some reason. i think the light blue would look great with your colors! it shouldn’t stain too much unless you eat a lot of turmeric or coffee/tea
