Dentists are doctors.

It's not a doctor, it's a dentist

Someday I hope we'll find out what "doctor" really means

Someone who teaches

 

[Cormcolash]

yeah - the only kids I remember with those were the ones that really needed them, and could get them in the public system.

Did you have the head gear for night use?

 

[therealjohnny]

I had one of these as a kid, on prescription. I just found out they're called Hawley retainers. I didn't wear it properly so my teeth are still all over the place.
Thing is I sometimes wake up with the feeling that I'm still wearing it.

Horrible things.


A dentist recently suggested I get proper braces. They would cost 5,000 and require regular visits to get them adjusted over the space of a year.
I spoke to a specialist and he said it would make very little difference so I didn't pursue it any further.

I had braces twice, a push-in thing when I was 7 or 8 and train tracks for a couple of years in my teens, all free public service. I don't remember much talk about wearing retainers after though and now they're all crooked again. I asked the dentist a few years ago about straightening them up and she said you can't really move your teeth around that way once you're older than about 20 and she suggested filling them down instead but fuck that.

Pretty much what I had too. Donegal notions.

Was made wear them for two years, nightly, after getting my braces removed

Was made wear them for two years, nightly, after getting my braces removed

Every time I think of it I can feel it in my mouth. I regularly dream that I've forgotten to remove it for 40 years and it's stuck in my mouth, too small and distorting my teeth and Jaws.

 

[nuke terrorist]

jesus - Really sorry to hear some of this stuff.

EDIT:
I got a plastic mould made of my lower teeth to try and stop me grinding my teeth on the left side.
I could not sleep with it in my mouth.
I would wake up thinking I had swallowed it.
My sleep is more important.
END EDIT.

Compare this to the anti blockers hysteria today about kids of the same age.
Parents get some strange ideas in every generation.

Soft bristle toothbrushes are great.
Highly recommended my me.
They make me enjoy brushing my teeth.
All the harder grades of bristles are miserable.

Oh I have dreams where my teeth keep moving because I no longer wear it and eventually they all just fall out of my head.
Good times. Good unconscious times

Dentists

You always had nice white teeth. You were just reluctant to go to the dentist for that issue.

That’s cultural appropriation.
To the cancelled thread with you, youre almost as bad as hitler and Rosin Murphy

 

[Cormcolash]

He's not as bad as Roisin Murphy, but definitely worse than Hitler

I think hitler's art is better than Roisin's art

Have never had an issue with going for dental treatment, feel for you folks that have problems with it.

Even when I had the wisdom tooth out I could feel it go crunch in my mouth as he pulled it and all I was thinking was "hmm, this is an interesting experience,"

Going to get a haircut though, that was always a torturous experience, hated it, ended up only going every 6-9 months because I found it so awful. Irony of ironies, since I've stopped needing to go to a barber I'm "cutting" my own hair about twice a week.

I start getting itchy on the inside if a haricut is taking longer than 10-12 mins.

I had my weekly shave yesterday and shaved head last night.
Annoying jobs at the best of times but relatively stress free and well done.

I have a phobia about haircuts and only trust one barbers with the job.
When they started opening only three days a week and it didn't suit my buses, I switched back to doing it myself.
