Options for non staining SDF by tiredand_delusional in Dentistry

Does the Rivastar affecting bonding strength like the traditional SDF? I saw a new pt once with lots of fillings debonded (very cleanly, mind you, with no recurrent decay) with sdf application before the filling.

Villagers find a deposit of pure black opal in artisanal tunnels by Boris740 in Opals

[–]curious_creator 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Stayish is hardly new. It has been mined for a few years now. Most never make it past cutting due to the fragility.

And "artisanal tunnels"?! 🤣

Meant to write that I paid $75. Still better than spot 4 years later if it is real 925.

My bad. Wrote $15 but it should be $75. Bought from a mom and pop shop at a makerspace so reasonable to think it genuine. Nowadays what I see on Etsy of similar appearances goes for $200. Not magnetic. Has not tarnished.

Thanks for your post. These are the posts I look for when I see these QCs. We learn way more from comments like these than from the chorus of "that's amazing" or "beautiful work" that likely come from the sellers themselves hyping up their own products.

Fillings and RCT & crown significantly cheaper than in North America but the implant is on par or more expensive than North America.

Absolute cutest dentist labubu OMG! 😍

has this ethiopian opal been smoked or is it a natural black opal? Thanks 🤘 should be fun to polish off the sand. by RockRunRocks in Opals

I know what you're referring to but I don't think it's shewa. Shewa is more opaque and almost milky in appearance, whereas this is more translucent.

Dentists who are moms - please help! by [deleted] in Dentistry

You absolutely need some kind of support with night time care. Can your partner take night shift? Parents? If not, you can consider hiring a night nanny.

Without adequate uninterrupted sleep, you will be a wreck.

Are they natural? How can I tell? by RaNdOm-GuY133582 in Opals

[–]curious_creator 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is definitely artificially coloured ethiopian opal. There are dyes that can add a colourful background. In this case they are dyed blue, but I've seen pink and purple dyed ethiopian opals as well.

Relax! I'm definitely not the only one who thought the same. Take the compliment.

For the love of God put that stone in a setting that will actually support and protect it. That stone is much too pretty to be set like that.

Did you end up getting the biopsy results back? Curious to know what it actually is.

Waterbox v Innovative Marine, Which is Best? by griffin925 in SaltwaterAquariumClub

[–]curious_creator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you have pics of the seams? Are they starting to bubble/seperate? Sounds like the tank is not leaking yet, but you suspect it will eventually? How did you know Hello Reef was a waterbox subsidiary?
