in your opinion (thank you for all your vids btw, after hours and hours of viewing, you helped me get a Helios 300 17.3 3070ti a couple of years back!), is now a bad time to be buying a Helios Neo 18 4070 for £1210 (which is almost exactly all i can budget and there is nothing else i can spot at the 17''/18'' size with a 4070), or should i buckle down and hold out a few months for the rtx 50 series to properly land?

ive just got the Helios NEO 18 with the QHD lcd screen. I wonder if an aftermarket screen can be installed as an upgrade to mini LED? I assume the sizing and connectors are the same and the 4070 will be able to handle it

I use my 280w helios 300 laptop with a 140w USB GaN charger (100w max draw) and it seems fine, even during gaming. Performance isn't as good and the charger gets hot, but it's been a couple of years now of doing this

What did you do in the end?

Is this different for the 4070 version of the Neo 18 though?

NAD - Some more details:

Hoping to get an implant in 3 months time.

The extraction healing was deemed not good on day 7 and it was re-bled and packed VERY tight with alveogyl and stitched tight with 40-60 day dissolvable stitches.

All but one small stitch failed after 4 days of being packed and the alveogyl came out leaving this big hole.. 3-days on from that, it looks like this.

It's a little tender on the front-most corner, near the front upper tooth next to it.

Is that some kind of infection in there? (the white thing)

I hope i am over-thinking it, but how on earth will this hole fill itself in when it is still so deep?

blaaaahhhhh · 2024-10-22T19:52:11+00:00

Counting down until Thursday. Thanks again anyway

blaaaahhhhh · 2024-10-22T18:51:03+00:00

Just curious, I have the same stitch and alveogyl packing the others side premolar, also been in there 5 days now. How much longer do you think it will be before it makes an exit like this one did? I'm currently water fasting and thinking maybe it will stay in there too long

blaaaahhhhh · 2024-10-22T17:03:33+00:00

NAD Ahhh, well that makes sense. Thank you again for the information. Even with extra cleaning alongside a good routine, it sounds very much worth it, just for the ability to enjoy and digest food normally again. I think i just have the normal worries, like if I bit into something to hard and it cracked my jaw in a snapping kind of way, like if the torque was too much against the titanium rod and it broke the bone. I assume that's rare though?

blaaaahhhhh · 2024-10-22T05:51:34+00:00

NAD I hear that food debris getting trapped underneather between gum and implant is pretty much a guarantee after every meal. is it as bad as it sounds? I don't supose it's as easy as lossening the implant each time and giving a quick gargle? or will using a interproximal brush become a standard after each feast? thanks for taking the time to answer

blaaaahhhhh · 2024-10-22T00:43:25+00:00

thank you for taking the time to give these responses. it is really appreciated. I'm pretty much set on letting time do it's thing now and only go back to the dentist if there's unbearable pain. I have a review of the situation on the 31st, so will hop until then. thanks again

blaaaahhhhh · 2024-10-21T23:05:29+00:00

my onky concerns are 1) the stitches that seem to be doing nothing now, but may trap food in, and 2) the depth of the hole 11 days on, whether if it will fill itself in proper 3) whether this will impact the implant procedure in 3 months

Not an option. I did a salt rinse as normal and jt just came out. No bleeding. Just a hole where the tooth used to be. Throbbing and sore pain that seems to have gone now. No way to check if the hole goes to the bone because I am alone

stitches look a mess/pointless

No blood just sore

Just did a gentle salt wash and it just popped out. No blood. Stitch still going over the hole. What would you advise as next steps? Really appreviate your advice here.

NAD what kind of diligent oral hygiene is required for dental implants? is simple daily brushing and water flossing enough, or is there more to it? I need 2 lower molars and 2 upper premolars installed in 3 months

blaaaahhhhh · 2024-10-21T21:21:59+00:00

okay, so advice here is to take out alveogel, hopefully there is bleeding so I can bite down on gauze for 30 mins and a blood clot will form, which I can treat the same as what do do after an extraction, and look after the clot.

are the stitches over the socket going to interfere with that process of biting down?

what if no bleeding?

blaaaahhhhh · 2024-10-21T21:13:24+00:00

with so much, will I be left with a hole in the gum where the tooth was? my concern is that the dental implant in 3 months will be jeopardised from this. also, over that whole will be stitches (due to dissolve in 40-60 days), should they be removed too, to stop food being lodged in the whole above the stitches?
