whats your professional take on teeth whitening strips?
5 replies
It depends from individual to individual and the remaining structure of their teeth , most people have their enamel damage so their dentin will be more exposed and vulnerable to hydrogen peroxide .
I'd recommend to withen your teeth after consulting a dentist , he will give you the specific concentrations and let you know, if first place, if you can withen your teeth or not.

Dear MatadoreN98 , flossing is very very very important, brushing your teeth only clears the apparent faces of your teeth but your brush doesn't clean the space between your teeth .
To give you an example and sorry for it being gross , it's as if after you did your number 2 , you clean your butt cheeks from the surface without cleaning the crack between the two .
There are many youtube videos that can guide you and give you an example on how to floss and the products you can use to floss , its only a question of habit , at night after brushing your teeth , floss

Irrigator shouldn't replace flossing, it could get used to access the deep surfaces that can't be reached with flossing or that you may find some difficulties to access and clean, but flossing remains as vital as brushing and rinsing

No, it depends on how you floss but using gumpickers is fine too, as long as you clean the space between your teeth, that's the most important thing.

I've read an article about UK struggling to get an appointement as well .
How long do you wait for the appointement? 3~6 months ?
12 replies
Well one can get appointment from private dentists pretty quickly, few weeks in. Normal checks aren't even that much more expensive in private unless there is something wrong in which it can become costly quite quickly. From public healthcare to get to dentist it has normally been around 3-5 months depending on location and time of the year. But after covid, the backlog has never been fully cleared so I have had problems to get time at all since they only give times for the next 6 months. Just none available ever when I try to make the appointment.
11 replies
I see, that sucks, by the time your turn comes, you'd have already gone to private
2 replies
Yes it does suck and it should be something that gets fixed if we are to pretend that we still have dentist as public service. But if this still continues for a while, I will probably go to private to at least check things out. Like I said, its not that bad if there is nothing wrong.
1 reply
Considering the circumstances as well, try to do your part and take care if your teeth
damn thats a lot of time to wait. is it because finland lacks doctors or what?
3 replies
Lack of doctors is main reason yes. I would differ that to three reasons:
1. Public services are not hiring enough doctors and//or paying them enough to get where needed. Of course healthcare expenses are increasing every year so they would want to halt that progress so hiring more people goes against everything that. But in result there are not enough doctors in public services and people are not getting treatment.
2. Doctor labor union or whatever has always been against increasing starting positions for universities to get more doctors and politicians have listened to them. For some reason which I cant really understand. Money or power or both.
3. Doctors are spending too much time for irrelevant stuff instead on only treating people which makes everyone leff efficient
That said. Its still very possible to fix these problems, its just that the decision won't get any easier in the future. We actually had reform in our healthcare system just year back which may or may not help something in mid to long term, but at least for now nothing has changed for better.
2 replies
That 2. Point is really messes up , having a doctor labor union that powerful to even have a saying in the number of starting position when statistacly, the population needs more professionals in the Healthcare field is sickening , as if they want the care for their own.
Can't the minister of health step up and impose things or it doesn't work like that ?
1 reply
I have not looked at actual numbers, but it is slightly messed up yes. My best guess is that in previous calculations too much weight has been given to technological advancement actual reducing to workload which has not happened. Luckily it seems like the new goverment is actually increasing the positions and even the union is accepting part of the problem. But any change to that now is only going to show up results in 7-10 years.

I have never got an appointment to private dentist so I put few weeks just to be safe. I had feeling its probably days but it was irrelevant for the big picture.
How about people who can't afford that?
Or those who have maybe 2~3 children?
1 reply
I cant say. But the couple weeks waiting time does sound correct with public. My parents have always paid for me and my brother to go to private dentists. Usually plaque cleaning costs ~80-100e and if u go to a dentist and do a checkup it can cost around 100e and if u want xray aswell it costs around 50e. If u need to fill a hole it costs around 80e. So yea pretty expensive for normal families

Floss like 2 times a week. Though i have a thin metal wire behind my upper teeth, where i use plackers instead (maybe that counts as flossing).
Dentist for checkup once every 2 year.

It's very important to brush your teeth before you sleep , during the day, when you talk or eating, you move your tongue and you produce saliva that protect your teeth and avoid the formation of the plaque but at night , the saliva production is close to none and your tongue is motionless so the formation of the plaque will occur and stay on your teeth wich will damage the dental surface .
So you never ever sleep without brushing your teeth, next time you'll feel lazy to brush your teeth before going to bed, remember this comment

I have so many unneccessary cavity fillings full of toxic mercury because of them.
3 replies
Filling with mercury is banned normally and so outdated, when a dentist recommends you to floss, he won't benefit anything from the product you'll buty and you'll use to floss, if those 'snake oil salesmen' as you named them wanted to farm your money , they'd encourage you to not brush your teeth and floss in order to comeback with teeth filled with cavities and you crying about the pain your teeth are causing

Do you brush before or after breakfast?
1 reply
I brush quickly my teeth and my tongue well without toothpaste before breakfast , after breakfast I brush my teeth with toothpaste
Brush: 2-3 times a day (depends on the number of meals - after every meal; I don't snack; I usually chew a gum for a bit before brushing in order to neutralize the pH in my mouth)
Floss: 1-3 a day (usually once after the last meal, but sometimes more if I had food that is carb-heavy and may get stuck between the teeth)
Checkup: every 6 months (with some variability - I live abroad, but I still visit my dentist in my home country)
Scaling: every 6 months (that may include sandblasting and fluoridation if the dentist recommends it)
Misc.: I carry a dental hygiene set in my backpack (a brush, a toothpaste, and mouthwash); haven't had anything to fix in like 15 years or more (other than some minor tweaks to dental work botched by the previous dentist) - ever since I've started with my current dentist

I used to use a water irrigator (Waterpik) after flossing, but after moving, I had to rely on a portable one that has the lowest setting a bit too strong for my gums (leaky blood vessels, I bruise easily), so I had to abandon this practice.

That's totally normal, your gums are inflamed and they will bleed out when you brush them, which is, once again, absolutely normal, most patients tend to not brush a certain area or because they see blood coming out of it, which is a mistake.

Happens to the best my friend iNVERNEIXEN, but nothing is irreversible, it's just some periods of life when you feel like you're not having the best time of your life, things move on, just don't be hard on yourself, give yourself time to work your things out, only YOU know how to move on, what you need and what you need to work on.
It's a great mindset to have your hygiene taking care of as something you want to achieve when you feel down to motivate yourself.

Wisdom tooth damage indeed the molar that is close to it if, as you said, grew into the molar, they also cause pressure on your front teeth if they don't remove them.
The pain after the 4 extractions as well as how you fed yourself after the interventions must have been a painful and annoying it had to be done.
5 replies
Yeah the pain was really bad. By far the worst pain was the nerve pain because I was biting down on the bite block for the entire surgery he said. For months I could barely open my mouth and eat because my jaw also became damaged from the surgery from having my mouth open for so long. Thankfully I've healed up, but it was such a long and painful process.
4 replies
Did you recover from your jaw completely?
The temporomandibular joint which helps you open and close your mandibular can be damaged during that extraction due to its long period and the patient having to open his mouth fully sometimes putting some pressure on the joint
3 replies
Well my jaw was never 100%. It always clicks every time I open it passed a certain point, so a lot of the time I'm chewing it clicks. Tbh it doesn't bother me that much, I forget about it most of the time. Sometimes it aches a lot though but I don't want to do a jaw reconstruction. So I can't say after surgery that it completely recovered, but it pretty much returned to how it was pre surgery if that makes sense.

Don't say unlucky, it's never too late or over, I know it's easier said than done, but try to work on yourself, battle that procrastination of yours and put in your head that like when you need to shower to clean your body and hair, you need to brush your teeth to clean them and take care of them, trust me, all the treatment to replace your teeth (besides implants which are VERY costly) afterwards aren't worth your natural teeth and they are a pain in the ass

Yeah I brush me teeth every time I shower its an easy habit to follow. But I only shower before work so I brush my teeth like 5 times a week. I need to find another thing to associate with brushing my teeth so I can build a habit and brush my teeth 2x a day without even thinking about it.
1-3 depending on my mood, but very rarely less than 2

Genuine question which isn't judgemental, doesn't it come to your mind that you may have a bad breath in the morning before leaving your house and that you may have conversation with people during your day ?
Usually one or two a day, but if I overate sugar probably more
No
Twice a year
Never heard of it or had it in my whole life.

A diet with a lot of sugar can easily damage your teeth if you don't clean them up very well watch out !

Is the use of Gum Brushes/Picks enough to clean between my teeth? Or would you still recommend flossing normally with dental floss?
1 reply
Just use one of them, if there are some places between teeth that you find difficult to access with the dental floss for example but is easy to access with the gum picks , then you can use the gum pick to access that difficult area, it's how you feel it, you also get used to floss with time

1. I aim to brushing twice a day and it normally happens, but there are days when I’m too exhausted in the evening and just fall asleep, or even days where I feel bad enough to the point to not even step in the bathroom the entire day, which is honestly a shame. I also developed a habit of brushing my teeth every day relatively late, maybe at 13-15 years of age on my own, because my relatives didn’t care for it earlier for some reason, so that’s part of the reason why I skip on some days still, but it’s got a lot better I must admit.
2. I’ve never flossed, but I ordered dental floss just two days ago and plan on flossing once a day, in the evening, because I’ll probably have no time to do it in the morning.
3. I rarely visit them overall, but I was there like 2 weeks ago and I’ll visit again soon. I don’t have good teeth and I have one missing (they removed my baby tooth at 18 years old and the x-ray showed that I don’t have molar roots in my bone apparently? so I need to figure something out with this shit), my teeth are also crooked a bit and I allegedly have overbite, so it looks like dentist’s cabinet is going to become my often-visited destination soon.

1. You're being responsible, you're aware of the duty you have towards your hygiene, I, as well, didn't take care much of my teeth when I was young, as my parents didn't ground me much/ look after my teeth being brushed, but it's never too late to take care of them. Being in denial of laziness or lack of hygiene is the worse case possible, just try to have a habit, before you leave the house in the morning and before you sleep : you have to brush WELL your teeth.
2. Floss only once, at night before sleeping after you brushed your teeth, also #27
3. At 18 Years of age you shouldn't have any baby tooth left normally, they removed your permanent molar I think, most parents and patients are confused after their molar is damaged/Removed( due to its pronostic) thinking that's its just a baby tooth while it's the permanent tooth,
Robitussin, I appreciate your time writing your comment, focus on the brushing and flossing, and don't be obsessed with the flashy white smile. The function primes and its what you should focus on
2 replies
Nah, I also thought that it’s a molar, but I forgot to clarify that I did the x-ray before the removal and it showed no roots whatsoever, the doctor even called several of his colleagues for them to see as if I was a baby born with a tail, so it was definitely a baby tooth. Perhaps the root is somewhere further in the bone, but I don’t know. My dentist said I’d need a 3D shot to check if it’s true.
As to all other matters, thank you, I needed that. This is probably the most useful thread on HLTV I’ve ever seen tbh.

honestly i dont brush my teeth except when im going out, wake up with bad breath or have eaten sugar. Still shower everyday, wash my clothes etc. I don't eat much sugar at all, no candy or soft drinks, if i do its sugarless "health drinks" or whatever that I like. Energy drinks. Went to the dentist after having kept this up for a couple months and I've been fine. I definitively feel a difference when I've eaten bad, in my teeth stomach and skin.
5 replies
EntonXD, when you eat with your hands, you wash them afterwards, right ?
Try to apply the same logic with your teeth, the same way you take care of your hygiene( body, clothes) which is good, your mouth should be a part of it as well!
Your diet, indeed, influences the risk of cavities in your teeth but brushing is vital and obligatory despite the type of food your mouth is processing

I know, I have started doing it more the last 2 months since my diet has taken a downturn as well because im lazy, don't have money for proper dinners all week and have moved places 3 times the last two years living alone/only eaten when I've cooked for others. Dad got burned out 3 years ago an is still struggling with it, and have told me I'm down there, and I have been for maybe the last 2 years without energy and regular migraines because of it.
But I've pushed past alot of what weighed me down so much and have alot of spare time to figure out what to do, even though I have to pickup the work I didnt do before, but when I want to like studies. Right now I just want to get rid of my poor habits I've gotten like sleeping too much, not taking care of my diet and skin which get really bad if you work in a greasy kitchen every other day so l try to do things differently. Moving this week again to live with family and to save money from work and I'm pretty excited I can take runs in more forested areas and have a gym close by I could start at.

never floss, ive tried sometimes but its too much of a hassle, it takes too long my gum is sensitive so its kinda painful and it always bleeds and i its just a big mess and i dont like that.
I went this year, prior to this year last time was maybe 5 years ago. i had developed some pockets in my gum which was bad and risk of infection. he also told me he wanted to remove 1 of my wisdom teeth for risk of infection but i think he just wanted to earn money cus that shit was expensive af, i try to go as seldom as possible bcus dentist is too expensive.
5 replies
That's problematic, can't you go to public Healthcare to remove your wisdom tooth, try to take an appointment even though it'll take 6 months or more.
The fact that you had pockets before means that you weren't cleaning your teeth that well, it takes a lot of time in order to have pockets in your gum, your gum is inflamed, this is what explains it being fragile and bleeds quickly when flossing, that shouldn't scare you fl0p_.
I'm not trying to br judgemental, I don't know your circumstances nor you war of living ( work,stress ect).
If as you mentioned , you find dentists expensive and you want to avoir them, try to take care of your teeth and do your part as much as you can.
Brush twice a day ESPECIALLY before sleeping, flossing indeed takes time but you'll get used to it, don't be scared nor annoyed of the blood that will come out, just floss gently and there are many youtube videos on how to do it.
You're a patient with a history of pockets so you should take your oral hygiene seriously, recidivism is more easier and pockets not only inflam your gum but they damage your alveolar bones that hold your teeth.
Take care buddy

well the reason mostly for poor dental health is because of depression i would say, which lead to neglecting my health and not taking care of myself very well. i do have a lot of calculus buildup which probably has saved my teeth to a certain extent, ive never had any cavities etc. but im gonna start brushing every morning aswell, and eventually floss too. but the pockets that i developed, could they go back to normal if i maintain good care?
3 replies
I'm supporting you fl0p_ , it's totally normal to go through some periods where you neglect a lot of things taking care of yourself included.
For your last question, the alveolar lesion may be seen if we do an X-ray, but your gum will recover, as well as your bone.
Trust me, try to brush WELL your teeth, take your time, use mouth wash at night, floss every night before you sleep or if you feel lazy every 2~3days

It does, but for your case of pockets, I'd recommend you using it once a day to eradicate any bacteria left especially in your gums

And they want me to take x-ray (so I did) but it was just for comision.

hello yourhltvdentist
I brush 2-3 times a day and use mouthwash after but currently don't floss because I am wearing braces and I find it extremely difficult to. due to this, my gums are very inflamed. i visit my orthodontist every 1-2 months and will visit my dentist right when I get my braces off (by the end of the year) but I was wondering how I would deal with how inflamed my gums are and if you recommend any brand of floss or any techniques? thanks in advance!
3 replies
Hi there KaninCS , appreciate your comment, I had braces as well for 2 years, I used to use flossing brush gum, the pink one(8 mm) and you can find even smaller ones 6mm or ever 4mm.
Inflamed gums is totally normal due to the orthodontic treatment, brush well your teeth whenever you eat something, use flossing brushes between the braces and the teeth because your toothbrush can't access that area, brush your teeth with a soft toothbrush as well.
Here's an example of the flossing brush I mentioned: amazon.com/TEPE-Interdental-Brush-Origin..

Hey yourhltvdentist
Appreciate the recommendation a lot, seems a lot better and easier to use than the weird flossing method they tried to make me do instead. After I get my braces taken off, would you recommend I floss using normal flossing technique? Should I do anything special considering how inflamed my gums are or just normally and let them bleed. Hope you are well and appreciate you continuing to support this thread.
1 reply
My pleasure KaninCS!
For flossing you could use the flossing brush or the normal floss, the technique that suits you and that you find yourself comfortable with.
For your inflamed gums, don't worry, when you'll remove the braces and your teeth won't move anymore, they'll go back to normal and they won't be inflamed anymore, having your gums bleeding is totally normal and as I mentioned earlier you can use a soft toothbrush.
I'm doing good, I'm hope you're doing fine and enjoying what's left of summer.

Flossing is stupid, it fucks up your gums and theres no need if u use the toothbrush properly.

Flossing isn’t stupid, toothbrush doesn’t each the place between your teeth that’s the point, If you floss and your gum starts bleeding it’s simply because it’s inflamed which is totally normal

Perfect !
When I wake up, and after every meal, and/or before going to bed.
As I eat only once a day, mostly 2 times a day. After meals, the procedure is brush extensively, floss, then brush again. Else I just brush extensively. Some days I fast the whole day, then it is only brushing when I wake up and when I go to bed.
1 to 2 times a year is fair to say, as I normally miss the dates, for unnecessary cleaning, as I do not eat carbohydrates and my teeth are always the cleanest record % my dentist keeps in the dental clinic's history.
I am not familiar with that decalcification, never had to do it in my life.

Some years ago I heard about the carnivore diet and decided to give it a go. Until then, I had never heard or experienced fasting, but once I started eating only meat, eggs and seafood, satiety was almost permanent, besides my cultural eating habits of previously eating breakfast, lunch and dinner, with some snacks in between.
So at first I ditched breakfast and the snacks, because I would not feel hungry at all when waking up, and also because I would not prepare some steak or whatever when I just woke up or in between. Then I dropped lunch because, again, no hunger. And then my family tried to put in a mental asylum.

Hey there Corcel2, sorry for the late response, I’ve been busy lately.
No I don’t fakeflag, man Morocco is such a rich place if you’re into desert and quad in the dunes you should come to the south ‘ Dakhla ‘, ‘ Laayoun’ .
Morocco is a rich cultural place, I recommend you to visit Marrakesh( my city ), fez, tangeer( it’s in the north and this city has the spartel cap that separates the Atlantic and Mediterranean ocean, so you can choose wether you wanna swim in an Atlantic/Mediterranean beach or both ).
Rabat the capital is chill and super clean, Casablanca if you wanna go shopping and there is a huge mall there called Moroccan mall.
There are a lot of videos on YouTube on people sharing their experiences on their Moroccan trips, it can be cheap or expensive depending on where you want to stay and the duration.
You’ll love it here, if one day you intend the come and have more question feel free to DM me.
Can you talk to me about Brazil, had so many friends who went there and when I’ll put enough money aside I will pay it a visit!
2 replies
Gave a quick search on maps and already found "Jarjeer Mule And Donkey Refuge" in Marrakesh, my kind of place to visit. Also added Ait Benhaddou to the list.
I was born, raised and still living in southern Brazil, and the further away I got from here while still in the country was southeast, in Sao Paulo, so my call is heavily biased, be advised:
My favorite place in the city I live today, Florianópolis, is called "Cachoeira do Poção", but in this city alone there are something like 50 beaches, a lot of trails to walk, dunes, portuguese era forts, lakes, nature, and a lot of different cultures from people that immigrated here over the last centuries, so a lot of different types of food to try. Great place to go sailing as well.
Some remarkable places goes as follows:
Aparados da Serra National Park - National Park with loads of canyons, waterfalls and wildlife.
Serra do Rio do Rastro - mountain range crossed by an super zigzagged road with an observation point on top.
Gramado - mountain resort town heavily influenced by german settlers - packed with attractions, but also one of the most expensive destinations around here. Best places to go are GramadoZoo, Mini Mundo and Mundo a Vapor. Best at winter time.
Treze Tílias - knockoff version of Gramado, influenced by austrian immigrants, best beer in Latin America. You want to come during Christmas to see children running from Krampus.
Pomerode - also a touristy town, it is the most german city in Brazil, if you speak german you are at home here. You wanna come during " Festa Pomerana".
Jaraguá do Sul - a religious destination on the top of Boa Vista Hill, called Chiesetta Alpina, has a beutiful scenery. Also in the city there is a place called "Pico Malwee Parque" that offers nice views overlooking the town, they have llamas over there, do not ask me why.
Blumenau - Oktoberfest.
Bento Gonçalves - the center of the country’s wine industry. If you are not into wine or alcohol, I would visit it for "Parque Da Ovelha" alone. Especially with kids or girlfriend.
Curitiba - the city is really a multy ethnic cultural center, lots of german, italian, polish, ukrainian, japanese, arabs and many others helped to create the most developed capital on Brazil, there are monuments to honor many of those. There are a lot of mainstream staples, but here I would highly recommend "Museu do Paraná", "Bar do Alemão", "Kawiarnia Krakowiak", "Passeio Público", "Parque Barigui", "Parque Tingui" and "Parque Tanguá", to say the least. City is a true gem, so much to see, so much food to taste, and so much to learn here.
Sant'Ana do Livramento - most cities in southern Brazil have some degree of "gauchesco" traditionalism, a kind of traditional culture from Brazil, Uruguay and Argentina. On every town I have ever been here there is a "CTG" - Center of Gaucho's Traditions - where these traditions are kept alive, with huge number of people attending regularly. This city probably has one too, but it is the place I felt most the tradition alive among the population, so I guess it would not need one. Festival Binacional de Enogastronomia is when you want to be here.
Lages - if going to Sant'Ana do Livramento sounds too far from the route, I would recomment Lages. On both you can go riding horses, hunting, eating traditional gaucho food and especially real churrasco (barbecue). "Festa do Pinhão" is when you are looking to come.
I have not even listed many waterfalls, peaks and trails over all these places, but southern Brazil has a really rugged relief, so most of the places you will go to are probably surrounded if hidden nature waiting to be explored.
Google "Tradicionalismo gaúcho", it is really interesting and it is probably one of the most valuable experiences from southern Brazil for anyone to have. Most brazilian people dont even knows this exists.

yes
why is this thread getting bumped
At one point I didnt brush for like 2 years straight. When I went to dentist I had like 1 cavity. After that I started brushing daily since I had a "fresh start" again. Next year I went to dentist and again had like 1 cavity. So from my experience brushing is overrated and could be just another hoax by medical industry.
I brush my teeth mostly once a day sometimes twice
I don't floss, don't really feel that it does anything for my teeth
I only visit dentist when it's necessary, like once every two years or so
