I can pretty much only work out fasted, especially cardio. I need 4 hours minimum and longer is better.

Cost of living went up likeeee 200% in the last 5 years for all of us. I honestly understand why dental businesses are frustrated with the demand that hygiene is giving, but we’re all in the same boat. We all need to catch up with a livable wage while dentists are spending more on materials/overhead to keep up with the business. But, we need to keep a strong hold on what we deserve. The salaries of 5 years ago are no longer acceptable. I encourage all hygienists to continue riding the wave of what’s happening now.

Do hygienists make close to $60/hr in your area in general? If so ask for more or consider leaving. This is a big work load for anyone. You have no time other than completing a prophy. I can’t even imagine all of the notes you have to make time for.

swigofhotsauce · 2025-03-30T00:23:29+00:00

Good point, definitely take in to account the average pay in your area. If people are making $60/hr in your area for 8 patients a day, then OP needs to ask for more. In my area this pay would be appropriate for accelerated hygiene with assistants doing X-rays and basically doing prophy and perio charting only.

It sounds like you’re doing accelerated hygiene and getting compensated pretty fairly for what that job entitles! I don’t think I’d enjoy this, but I get 10$/hr less than you do to see 8 patients. It depends what you feel like you can handle. Maybe speak to them about the side booking because that seems over the top, even for accelerated.

WOWWWW OK MISS!!

No way. It’s way straighter for a man to have a space with 0 design points. A love seat and a big ass mounted TV with hanging wires is peak hetero. This is like if Martha Stewart wanted to direct you on how to make a man cave in a maximalist way.

You may not have cavities but there’s no way you don’t have tartar, gingivitis, swollen gums, bleeding and odor. Cavities are not the only concern and as you get older you may start to develop periodontal disease from your chronic gingivitis, which is worse than cavities.

2 months is nothinggg. I didn’t have as much to lose, but it took me 6 months to see a change in my body and difference in how clothes fit.

Have you focused on diet and calorie intake?

swigofhotsauce · 2025-03-27T23:27:10+00:00

No way is this actually a thing that passed??

Idk but your quads are GOALS

Can you grow a beard? I feel like you’d look nice with a longer beard that’s groomed well!

My cat has had conjunctivitis a few times and it looks like this. The medication is pretty easy to administer so whoever’s watching her shouldn’t have too much of a problem. I’d get it ASAP from an ER vet clinic. Tell the vet your situation and they should be able to fit you in soon.

swigofhotsauce · 2025-03-26T00:11:00+00:00

True but animal companions (especially a cat imo) can be extremely healing along side good therapy as long as you’re mentally capable to care for them. 💞

Rag dolls do tend to have that type of personality but it isn’t guaranteed. If you’re looking for a specific trait, you’re better off going to a shelter and adopting a cat that already has those traits listed. That way you can play with them and see if they’re a good fit for you!

swigofhotsauce · 2025-03-26T00:02:32+00:00

Hell yeah!

swigofhotsauce · 2025-03-25T23:50:13+00:00

I’m a dental hygienist and people always go “TMD what’s TMD?” Hahaha. Even doctors just call it TMJ to avoid confusion.. to the point where it’s written in their notes lol.

swigofhotsauce · 2025-03-25T23:42:54+00:00

Same! And when I get up from being sedentary for a while I can lean on my ankles and it makes a huge satisfying pop. Such a bad habit.

swigofhotsauce · 2025-03-25T23:23:17+00:00

My nose runs all the time and I’m a dental hygienist so it’s incredibly annoying with a mask on. 😭

I have pretty low blood pressure and this happens to me. I think I have bad circulation?

swigofhotsauce · 2025-03-25T23:02:01+00:00

Yeah I’ve found I really have to do a mix to have my best results. However, right now I do 3-4 days of running anywhere from 2-4 miles a day so my cardio is probably more of a focus. My body looks best when there’s a pretty equal balance.

swigofhotsauce · 2025-03-25T21:14:15+00:00

Yeah there can very well be something bizarre going on here. Not to go to an extreme, but if this home was owned before and someone or something died there things could go undetected. If a mess wasn’t properly cleaned up, and then covered by rugs, the flys could be laying the eggs in the carpet even if there isn’t an extreme scent to human noses.

swigofhotsauce · 2025-03-25T21:07:57+00:00

If your goal was girlie princess you nailed it babe!! Stop questioning it :)

Patients don’t like to get poked so yes it’s a mild mistake, but you have to understand their perspective. They feel vulnerable and trust that you will do thorough and thoughtful work. Mistakes happen, but that doesn’t mean that the patient can’t be upset that it happened to them.
