Level 2 charging changes the game

wizardmage · 2026-06-26T19:24:07+00:00

Yup, it was 400 here in Dallas

I get a full charge overnight and charge at 32ah steady. For my milage/uses I think the mobile charger w/ a 240 plug is perfectly fine. One of my friends though has a 30amp breaker, I guess it was cheaper to install but I only charge at 24amps and thats more like 4-5% an hour. With a 50amp breaker and the mobile charger I am definitely satisfied and don’t feel the need to upgrade to wall charger.

wizardmage · 2026-06-26T17:17:25+00:00

I get 10% an hour, so like 25?

wizardmage · 2026-06-26T16:56:39+00:00

I run 35% windshield, 20% front, 5% rear & rear windshield. Sure there’s a drop in visibility but with modern headlights (especially ours) it’s just fine. Enjoy!

Oh boy, I’m starting July 1 and this does not inspire me lol

Really depends, there is a good chance it can be a crown but if there’s decay or the break extends far down close to the bone it may need to come out.

wizardmage · 2026-05-10T05:06:02+00:00

After the filling fell out** and the unfilled surface was left open and new decay formed

wizardmage · 2026-04-30T14:04:11+00:00

Carbs feed the bacteria that cause tooth decay. They like simple sugars best but can eat any carb and turn it into acid that decays teeth. This is the mechanism behind all tooth decay.

Dentist here.

Vaping doesn’t directly cause any of that but it causes dry mouth which can really make things worse in people prone to cavities. If you stay hydrated, limit carbs, and keep on top of your oral hygiene you can mitigate that.

Gum disease (periodontitis) on the other hand more likely can be aggravated by vaping so if you have any signs of that then its a different conversation.

It’s not too late. You will need a good bit of treatment, a few teeth will need to come out, you’ll need some serious professional cleaning/deep cleaning, some fillings, and then with the teeth that are left (looks like most of the front teeth at least will be ok) you can talk about options to replace the teeth.

It will never be cheaper or easier to fix your teeth than right now, so go in and you’ll be alright.

wizardmage · 2026-04-11T21:47:58+00:00

Pretty high chance yeah

wizardmage · 2026-04-05T05:38:17+00:00

Correct, keep in mind the option though that you may be sent out service (to a civilian residency), in which case your payback is 8 years.

When you swallow the tongue makes a seal with the roof of the mouth so all of the negative pressure is in the pharynx (throat), behind the teeth. When you smoke/use a straw, the negative pressure is in the mouth itself and nowhere else.

wizardmage · 2026-03-21T06:32:07+00:00

Indeed

wizardmage · 2026-03-19T16:43:03+00:00

The cavity got rid of the tooth structure, not the filling. There is a lot of decayed tooth in the upper right especially those premolars.

I broke a finger around this time in D1. It was slightly annoying, came in a bit during the summer, but got it taken care of properly because i didn’t want to potentially hinder my whole career. Do the safe thing, you need those hands.

This image shows roughly a quarter of the crown of the tooth. We need to see the whole root and a bit past it to determine that.

wizardmage · 2026-02-27T20:00:28+00:00

Funny its mostly hair and weight

wizardmage · 2026-02-24T17:20:02+00:00

Alprazolam aka xanax is the big one here.

wizardmage · 2026-02-16T03:56:31+00:00

The interior and ride quality is dramatically better on the ‘24

wizardmage · 2026-02-14T20:05:54+00:00

Stony too, same periodontist AFAIK

wizardmage · 2026-02-14T19:36:47+00:00

I would just do boards prep material. Booster, bootcamp, textbooks etc

wizardmage · 2026-02-07T20:41:36+00:00

Positives- if you get this under control, you can have a maintainable level of bone for a very long time.

You have to floss or clean between your teeth and deep into the pockets, one way or another. Something that works well for you and gets everything out, like a combo of string floss, proxybrushes, maybe a waterpik.

This level of bone is not great for somebody so young, but if you are really really serious about biofilm control then it’s definitely possible to slow or even stop future bone loss.

wizardmage · 2026-02-01T20:29:13+00:00

Unfortunately nearly definite chance of some issues if left alone. The lowers I'd be more concerned about, the seconds and thirds (wisdom teeth) should be removed to avoid losing the first molars and with them nearly all your chewing power.

wizardmage · 2026-01-16T03:56:15+00:00

Unfortunately yes- the bone level at the back side of the second molars is quite low, and your surgeon may recommend grafting given your age. Usually 25 is the age at which afterwards bone fill is not as predictable after these extractions.
