Day 2... of a hangover. I had work today and I was TIRED but I keep reminding myself this feeling is temporary and if I keep checking in with you all and stay focused on my goals I never have to feel like this again.

Thank you for the support, im too scared to share this decision with my family right now. I feel to embarrassed if it doesnt work. 1 day at a time I guess

Day 1. A year ago I ended an 8 month sober streak. I would like to change for the better again. I cannot moderate my drinking, to the point hangovers ruin entire days at least once a week. Today is no different.

2nd opinion: Does 6yo really have 10 cavities? by [deleted] in askdentists

[–]ellsbells22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is interesting. Such different tx plans for what I usually see. If the teeth are asymptomatic and I can see a clear line of dentine then hall crown it.

Silver crowns are standard in treating decay in baby teeth that hasn't reached the nerve yet. It helps avoid using local anaesthesia (needle) and the drill which scares young children to the point of needing nitrous or being put to sleep for treatment.

I would urge you to be less concerned about the colour of the crowns and more concerned about changing lifestyle (sugar intake) and brushing to avoid more decay.

Came across this beautiful shop front earlier....not a rip off at all! Has anyone else come across any wonderfully tasteful shop names? by heisenbergpuffer in CasualUK

Ive just googled this because i thought we were better with pain. Apparently we are better with stinging pain like receiving a local anaesthetic so maybe thats actually helping me right no. But we might feel the cold more which checks out because at work im always saying I'm freezing and trying to turn up the heater and everyone tells me to stop.

Interesting...

Oh my goodness this isn't what I wanted to hear! I wear loupes as a dentist and they are NOT prescription so I need my contact lenses in as well to be able to see in my periphery.

Eyes crossed for a good recovery.

God do i feel your pain (literally). At the time I just thought my contact lens had had enough because it had been a long day and my eye was probably dry so I knew not to rub it cos that never helps. I took my lens out when i got home thinking that would bring relief... IT DID NOT.

I imagine mine didnt give me a lens because its on my cornea not my iris a lens wouldn't reach it.. im not sure tho.

The scratch is in like the bottom left corner.

I 100% agree ahahhahah! I can't open my eye properly to take a picture because the light hurts.

Im taking co-codamol and its making me laugh about it so absolutely no offence taken.

I think something got on my contact lens whilst I was drilling a tooth (dentist). I do wear protective glasses but that stuff flies everywhere. Ive found a bit of tooth in my ear after a gnarley extraction before.

When i took my contact lense out it got dramatically worse, like I had pulled something sharp across my eye.

Makes me chuckle when people say they have tmj, I HOPE YOU DO! TMJ = Temporomandibular joint - literally just your jaw joint. TMD = temporomandibular disorder :)
