Oh no... the antibiotics for my infected tooth is wearing off, my mouthing aching again! It's going to be early October again!

Downside of finally having that tooth out:

Suddenly having the energy I’ve spent the last several months trying to find, and feeling like I should be doing all the projects I made zero progress on while waiting for surgery. Also, grabbing several new projects off the back shelf of my brain. Because I can, but now the things I was most excited to be doing (read: writing) are not happening, because I have so much else to do.

Plus side! My room might be passable for a human living space before fall rolls in! (Maybe.)

I remember when I had a root canal (very intense dental procedure) and after I just laid on the couch high as shit on the laughy gas they gave me and watched Jerma for EIGHT HOURS

Cat toothbrush?

Chew sticks!

Because Clan cats don't have the range of motion to "brush" their teeth, what they do is find a small twig from either a Silver Birch or a young Willow and chew the end off.

After chewed, they 'brush' their teeth with the bristles, shifting it in their paws to cover the whole mouth. When a cat has a dental problem, they dip the frayed end in a Fennel poultice like a paste.

For Clans that have spare flax on hand, it is also possible to have the teeth wiped by a salty or sooty linen rag. But chewsticks are very, very easy to make and use, and not every cat can have their own rag due to how intensive flax processing is.

Common Misconceptions About Clear Aligners

Clear aligners have revolutionized the way people achieve straighter teeth, offering a modern, discreet alternative to traditional metal braces. However, with all the excitement around this innovative treatment, there are still some common misconceptions that may leave you wondering if clear aligners are right for you. At Black Bear Dental, your local provider of clear aligners near you, we’re here to clear up these myths and provide expert insights into why clear aligners could be the perfect fit for your smile journey.

Myth 1: Clear Aligners Only Work for Minor Teeth Adjustments

Many people believe that clear aligners are only suitable for small corrections, like closing minor gaps or straightening slightly crooked teeth. This misconception often leads patients to think they aren’t a candidate if they have more complex dental issues.

The Reality: Clear aligners have advanced significantly and are now capable of treating a wide range of orthodontic concerns, including crowded teeth, overbites, underbites, and crossbites. At Black Bear Dental, we use the latest aligner technology that can effectively address even more challenging cases. Our experienced team will conduct a thorough evaluation of your teeth and customize a treatment plan that suits your specific needs, no matter how complex.

Myth 2: Clear Aligners Take Much Longer Than Traditional Braces

A common misconception is that clear aligners take longer to straighten teeth compared to traditional braces. It’s easy to assume that because clear aligners are removable and less visible, they might not be as effective in achieving timely results.

The Reality: Clear aligners can be just as efficient, if not faster, than traditional braces, depending on the complexity of the case and how consistently the aligners are worn. Most patients complete treatment in 12 to 18 months, which is comparable to traditional braces. In some cases, clear aligners can even achieve results faster because they are designed to apply continuous, gentle pressure to shift teeth more predictably.

Myth 3: Clear Aligners Are Uncomfortable to Wear

Some patients worry that clear aligners might be uncomfortable or painful, similar to the discomfort often associated with metal braces. This misconception can discourage people from choosing aligners, fearing that the treatment won’t be as comfortable as advertised.

The Reality: Clear aligners are custom-made from smooth, BPA-free plastic that fits snugly over your teeth. While you may experience mild pressure when switching to a new set of aligners, this is a sign that the aligners are working. Unlike braces, there are no sharp brackets or wires to irritate your cheeks and gums, making clear aligners a far more comfortable option for most patients.

Do Dentists Recommend Clear Aligners?

Absolutely, many dentists and orthodontists recommend clear aligners as an effective, convenient alternative to traditional braces. At Black Bear Dental, we often suggest clear aligners for patients seeking a discreet and flexible treatment option that fits seamlessly into their lifestyle. Here’s why:

Effectiveness: Clear aligners are proven to effectively treat a wide range of orthodontic issues, offering reliable and predictable results.

Aesthetic Appeal: The nearly invisible appearance of clear aligners allows patients to straighten their teeth without the noticeable look of metal braces, which is particularly appealing for adults and teens who are conscious of their appearance.

Convenience and Flexibility: Because clear aligners are removable, you can enjoy your favorite foods without restrictions and maintain your regular oral hygiene routine with ease.

Customized Treatment: Every set of aligners is tailored specifically to your teeth, ensuring a precise and comfortable fit that drives optimal results.

At Black Bear Dental, our focus is on providing personalized care that meets your unique needs. We evaluate every patient’s individual case to determine if clear aligners are the best choice for achieving their smile goals.

So even my dentist believes I've got EDS, I've got 6 new cavities in the 6 months since I've seen him including one of my root canals. And he can see I've been brushing and uses the same toothpaste even and asked about how long the dry mouth has been going on. I said shit as long as I can remember! So now we have a plan to get 3 teeth pulled and have implants put in per session.

Sometimes i get very sad that even when i look at actors who are not "traditionally attractive" one thing they all have in common is teeth that are if not perfectly straight, rather unblemished and gleaming white. Years of sensory problems and bad genes and incomplete orthodontics have my teeth crooked and yellow and stained, so ill never be on the same level as some of these people. It sucks. It makes me sad to think "oh these people are like me except... this very present thing on a camera."

the worst thing about having botched braces is literally everything being ruined completely in my mouth.

Most of my family said my smile was better. My overbite had not been fixed and now my lower jaw swings unnaturally to the left. My family complained I didn't have the same appetite, and that I chewed too loud. Due to the unnatural swing of my jaw and the fact that my right molars are now almost completely sideways, chewing like before braces is impossible with biting my tongue or cheeks or dislocating my jaw My mother complained about my new snaggled front tooth. I was given a permanent retainer without my consent or understanding of what it was and the glue is disintegrating. My gums were lasered after braces so far down I can't brush my bottom front teeth without discomfort. Two teeth were removing for "crowding" that created noticeable gaps after I had braces removed.

And yet my orthodontist never saw a single damn problem with my teeth doing any of this, and neither did my dentist! According to them, my teeth looked perfect, when they now had more problems then when I was young. So now it's thousands more dollars as an adult to get braces again to fix the damage done by Dr. fricking DingDong.

24hrs post-surgery, I cannot express what a relief it is to have that tooth out of my skull. My adjacent teeth feel a little weird, but I am genuinely shocked by how much more energy & focus I have without the constant thrum of pain, plus finally being able to properly eat again.

I had ice cream today, and it was freezer burned to hell, but still one of the best things I’ve had in a long time. I had mac & cheese again, because I finally had the energy to actually make the sauce. I decided to go downtown & browse the second-hand shops because I wanted to. I haven’t wanted to leave the house in months.

Holy shit, I could actually cry. I feel like a person again. When was the last time I wasn’t in pain?
