Side note - my dentist got a whizz-bang water scraper thing about 4-5 years ago and asked me if I wanted to use that instead of the metal pick. Oh hell yes, I'll try anything instead of that damn metal pick. I love it; high pitched whir I can ignore well enough and nowhere near as much agony. They get the last few spots they couldn't hit with the metal one but I don't have a screaming headache and bloody mouth anymore. But now I specifically have to ask them to use it. They don't mention it and my wife doesn't even realize they have it. They do - it exists and they're happy to fire it up if I ask them to. Is there any reason why it seems to have fallen out of favor or do you figure this particular office just had enough patients who didn't like it that it's not at the front of their mind. |

Ultrasonic scaler.
My hygienist uses it on every patient. I hate the sound of it, it's right by my office so I hear it all the time I'm in here on CP. |

Update.
Inmate starting sobbing loudly, apparently he wasn't as tough as he thought. Got him on some antibiotics and will see him in a week. He's a sissy, he was numb, just didn't like pressure. |

This thread is awesome and cringeworthy at the same time.
TAKE A ****ING BLADE AND JAM IT IN THERE UNTIL IT DRAINS OR YOU HIT BONE. Soothing ****ing words to read the day before a dentist appointment. |

Can’t speak for O. But draining pus with a 15 blade was great fun. Girls love it also.

I brush only once a day (thoroughly though, probably a good 5 minutes no joke) and floss maybe twice a month. When I get my teeth cleaned I dont exactly enjoy it but I dont consider it to be painful either. Am I just a badass or genetically gifted?

It’s amazing that someone who knows so much about gums and gingivitis has so many questionable takes on the Chiefs.
It’s like learning Mahomo is a Greek shipping magnate or UChieffyBugger is Gary Glitter. |
