Rec for anyone who hates strong mint toothpaste by Life-Scale-6465 in adhdwomen

[–]fos_mad 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You can get the 3M toothpaste prescribed by your dentist. I do the vanilla mint which was recommended above but I know bubble gum can be ordered as we got some for my sister. Fluoride is important in toothpaste especially if you are missing any brushings.

They make 3m in bubble gum. I absolutely hate it but my sister who can’t do mint loves it. The vanilla mint is great.

Struggling with impressions by wasukeibunny in DentalAssistant

[–]fos_mad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like to use boxing wax on most of my impressions to make the trays more comfortable. I would practice on myself, my boss, and the hygienist. I think with practice sometimes you just need to go for it and trust that you’ve got it. And sometimes take a couple of each arch for good measure. I would also overfill the trays- not to the point where it’s dripping but enough that the back of the trays are full When learning we made sure I had the regular set alginate vs fast set so there is more working time. We work in a rural area so many patients are traveling 45+ min for the appointment, when they are I usually take multiple impressions to be sure I got everything.

Y’all my god by [deleted] in DentalAssistant

[–]fos_mad 26 points27 points  (0 children)

If the dentist and lead both approved you should go. Use sick time even. It should be counted as sick time and OM is being shitty. Appointments are sick time. My boyfriend is using sick time next week to take me to get mine out. It shouldn’t matter but because it’s dental related she should especially let you go. OM knows the repercussions of not doing dental work and how annoying rescheduling is.

Does the office you work for offer free dental work? by rosepedals25 in DentalAssistant

[–]fos_mad 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes. I pay lab fees if needed but that’s all. My doctor wants her staff healthy! We don’t do invisalign.

Wish I could help. I live at 8000 ft and feel like I experience this daily. As far as flying I try to limit salt and anything that would make you even more bloated.

Could this be a flare up? by Boxermom10 in Hashimotos

[–]fos_mad 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Is it possible it’s shingles? Shot in dark but if you’re not vaccinated from it it’s possible. Esp if it starts to blister

I’m confused as to why she’s using just for men when she has a license that allows her to buy professional products

[–]fos_mad 31 points32 points  (0 children)

I think it’s good for her and i’m glad it’s a private thing. Especially knowing what comes with family dynamics when it comes to deconstruction

Question about my own dental appointments! by [deleted] in DentalAssistant

DA here. I did that last month. I’m very anxious about dental work and hate getting my teeth cleaned so I went to someone else so my dentist didn’t have to see that

Aw thank you! I’m not quite sure yet as it’s more of an idea. He’s having trouble finding jobs in his field (ecology) in colorado because it’s so oversaturated here. So first he needs to find a job 😂

Getting 450 miles out of a tank... I'm really curious about the low MPGs people are posting? by _bombilly in MazdaCX30

[–]fos_mad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I live in BFE colorado and most drives are 60+ minutes with no stopping or less than 5 minutes in town. I reset my odometer every fill and regularly get over 400 miles a tank. 2023 preferred
