Read about atypical cardiac arrest /vascular disease symptoms and wow. Whose legs are fucking deceased after walking less than 1,5km??? I have ear pain with a pulsating rhythm and ear ringing also Jesus Christ the stabbing pain I feel in my back/chest area sometimes when I move my arm... Ughhhh... These might be explained by some other things too but also the article just kept mentioning how people just brush these symptoms off (there were many more and some rare diseases mentioned with their own set of niche symptoms [that don't seem like they might be cardiac]) and think of as the run of the mill pains or just something normal acting up.
Like ughhg I have a retainer and the pains of not having it were as horrible as these that I interpret as the healing pains and the jaw affects the ear and the balance sense. It's sucking the life out of me. But I have the leg symptoms !!!! Might as well be a fucking plantar fasciitis or whatever it was... But I don't feel the pain exactly where the point should be but they mentioned it as a side effect that the pain resides in the outer foot.
Ugh I don't have the knowledge of what to do like do I take these as the retainer doing its job and moving my jaw slowly to the right place and having the retainer out for the day and just sleeping with it is too little at this point and I need the new smaller retainer I can use at the day... Lord I hated taking those pressure point biting tests I almost threw up from those and not the mold making. I am disgusted. I would want the slimmer smaller retainer.. .but I immediately feel agony bc I have to use the public health care of course and it should've been scheduled like 4-6 months ago so that I would have some relief soon. I have eaten pain meds everyday now for more than a week bc I had the spiciest fucking menstrual pain and these migraines.
I have so many things to schedule and find out but it just doesn't help knowing it I completely get paralyzed from the information I should know for the appointment and scheduling it. Like yes they ask questions and I should be able to answer so the check up might go smoother but it's just pain I won't remember all the shitty nitty little things that should be looked up. Like my molars are really sharp? And I'm worried about the bruxism. And the retainer. I should exercise more all these muscles that's for sure.
Is it ADHD symptom that I don't remember all my symptoms and I usually feel like every little thing is just normal it will go away it's not something to focus on. And then it will get worse. And I keep the loop until it's so fucking bad. Idk maybe it's trauma response.

This is a bit out of pocket but I want to rant.
So, I've had a dental splint for like almost 2 years now, I should have got it sooner (like, around 14-15 yo) but honestly I hadn't been to a dentist in like 6 years at that point and the last one had been extremely incompetent.
Anyways, the splint is, for course, to avoid causing damage to my teeth due to jaw clenching and teeth grinding and as such should be used every night (I'm working on being consistent with that) and whenever I'm doing something that requires focus and generates stress, which is basically the description of college assignment and related stuff.
The problem here is that means I should wear it at the library (or whatever space is available for working) when I do college stuff but first of it's definitely not normalised to wear it in public settings (and I have very bad social anxiety), it's also noticeable even with my mouth closed, it's bright green and it gives me a very noticeable lisp when I have to speak while wearing it. Technically I could count on no one speaking to me in the library and some college libraries even have space separators at the desks so I could avoid being seen.
But then I'd have to carry around my toothbrush and toothpaste and the special brush for the splint and I'd have to brush my teeth before using it and then go wash the splint afterwards, which would also be awkward as fuck.
What I mean to say is, if we've normalised wearing retainers and Invisalign (which you have to take off before eating in public spaces as well and brush your teeth before putting it back in) can we please normalise wearing splints at public working spaces because bruxism is a real problem and struggle for a lot of people but I feel like everyone finds the splint too bulky and noticeable and people look at you weirdly for wearing it.

What are clear retainers made of?
What are clear retainers made of?
Clear retainers are made of high-quality polypropylene or polyurethane material. They’re usually about 0.76mm in thickness and are designed to withstand any crack or stress resistance. To create a clear retainer, a mould of your teeth is created. A very thin plastic made from the materials mentioned above is then heated and sucked down the mould, creating a retainer that’s uniquely yours. Modern technology allows for greater accuracy now; intraoral scanners can virtually take a record of teeth shape and position and 3D printers can create dental models with 25-micron accuracy
For more details on our products and services, please feel free to visit us at: clear retainers after braces, clear retainers for teeth, dental essix retainer, clear retainer braces & essix clear aligner.
Please feel free to visit us at: https://www.retainyoursmile.com/
Advantages:
Virtually invisible, so you’re more likely to wear it, which means a lesser chance of realignment or relapse
Less bulky and more comfortable than some retainers like Hawley retainers
Easy to take in and out
Less likely to affect speech than Hawley retainers
Inexpensive
Provides better oral hygiene than fixed retainers
Acts as a night guard for bruxism
Disadvantages:
Should your teeth be realigned, you will need to get a new set of retainers as clear retainers are not adjustable
They cannot be repaired if cracked or broken
Can warp if exposed to heat
May affect your speech more than permanent retainers
Can become discoloured if you smoke or drink coffee
Easily misplaced due to transparency 
Can I eat with a clear retainer on?
You should always remove your retainer when eating or even drinking beverages that tend to leave stains, such as coffee. Eating with a retainer on may cause the retainer to break, and food can get stuck between the plastic and your teeth.
When food and drink gets stuck between your retainer and teeth, it can cause decay, bad breath and a stained retainer — I’m sure you don’t wish to look like you have extremely yellow teeth thanks to your stained retainer. This is also why I emphasise for my patients to try to clean their retainer daily.
How do I clean my clear retainer?
Here are a few tips I share with my patients on cleaning their clear retainers:
Brush or rinse your retainer with warm water daily
Use a very smooth toothbrush so you don’t scratch the clear plastic
Avoid using toothpaste as this may too abrasive
Use a cotton swab or Q-tip to clean the corners and edges
Soak your clear retainer in a denture cleanser
Avoid soaking your clear retainer in hot water as this may warp the plastic material
If the above sounds like too much effort for you, the easiest way to keep your clear retainer clean is to soak it in warm water whenever you have a chance. This will keep your clear retainer moist and loosen any lingering food pieces.
Clear retainer for lost teeth
Patients with missing teeth can also benefit from clear retainers. In fact, one useful application of clear retainers is that they can fabricate and construct a crown or denture teeth to replace missing anterior teeth. It can be challenging for orthodontists to provide both function and aesthetics for a patient who’s waiting for final tooth restoration, and a clear retainer can help act as a temporary prosthesis.

Reasons Why Your Bite Can Shift
If you’ve noticed a slight change in your smile or teeth alignment, it may be an indication that your bite has shifted. This condition is known as malocclusion and results from crooked or crowded teeth and misalignment between the lower and upper dental arches.
Severe malocclusion can cause speech problems, breathing difficulties, facial changes, bruxism, and chewing issues. A properly aligned bite allows you to clean your teeth more efficiently and helps prevent tooth decay, gingivitis, and other oral health problems.
Causes of Malocclusion
Malocclusion or shifts in the bite can occur in patients of all ages for a variety of reasons. Although you can prevent some of the resulting problems through proper oral health care and regular dental appointments, others require more advanced procedures. The most common causes of a shifting bite include:
Time: The older you grow, the tighter and smaller your lips become. This change in facial features also puts pressure on your teeth from the outside. Over time, your mouth feels crowded, and changes in dental alignment occur.
Tooth Loss: Tooth loss is one of the most common dental problems. Causes include physical trauma, decay, bone disease, gum disease, and normal wear and tear. If you lose one or more teeth, the remaining ones will shift towards the new gap and adversely affect your bite.
Periodontal Disease: Gingivitis refers to inflammation of the tissue around your teeth. When it progresses further and becomes periodontitis, it can cause gum shrinkage and bone loss, increasing the likelihood of tooth loss and misalignment.
Genetics: It’s possible to inherit malocclusion. If you have the condition, your parents, siblings, and other relatives are likely to have it as well. Genetic disorders such as cleft lip or palate also affect your bite by changing your dental structure.
Injury or Trauma: Kids, teens, and young adults are at higher risk of traumatic dental injuries which affect their bite. Examples are fractures, extrusion, subluxation, and avulsion.
TMJ and Misalignment
Misalignment of the jaw is one of the most common causes of temporomandibular joint disorder (TMD) and can have adverse effects on your dental health and overall quality of life. In some cases, it can also trigger shoulder and back pain and exacerbate migraines. Some dietary habits also worsen the condition. Examples include eating hard foods such as pretzels and chewing gum frequently.
A misaligned jaw affects your craniomandibular system, which includes your head, neck, and shoulders. Malocclusion can change the position of your jaw and cause symptoms whose cause might take years to pinpoint. TMJ treatment plans involve a comprehensive body and mind approach. Other than medication, it includes stress-relieving techniques, oral appliances, and surgery in extreme circumstances.
Ways to Correct Misaligned Teeth
Although maintaining good oral hygiene helps manage symptoms related to misaligned teeth, there are additional steps to follow. One of them is adopting a healthy diet that reduces the likelihood of tooth decay, gum disease, and general wear and tear. Others include:
Traditional Braces: This solution uses metal brackets attached to an archwire that gradually shifts your teeth in the desired direction. Your orthodontist replaces or adjusts your braces during scheduled dental appointments until you achieve the optimal alignment.
Clear Aligners: These alternatives to traditional braces can correct bite issues by incrementally moving your teeth, provided you wear them consistently. The clear, customized trays can treat a range of alignment problems, including crooked and crowded teeth, underbites, overbites, and crossbites.
Retainers: Retainers are an effective solution for misaligned teeth and are most often used after treatment with braces or clear aligners. Your orthodontist will instruct you on how long to wear them, depending on your particular needs. You might have to wear them full time for up to 6 months, after which you should wear them at night indefinitely.
Ways to Identify Bite Changes
Malocclusion symptoms can be mild or severe, depending on the type you have. Symptoms include:
A change in facial appearance
Biting your tongue or inner cheek frequently
Pain or general discomfort when biting or chewing
Speech difficulties including developing a lisp
A clench test is one way of determining whether you have bite issues. It involves biting down firmly and gently grinding your teeth in all directions. If you feel pain or discomfort, it means you have an uneven bite, and you should seek the assistance of a professional as soon as you can.

5 Dental Emergencies That Are Common
Tumblr media
A cut on your finger may require an emergency room visit. But what happens when you chip your tooth? You will also visit the emergency room to get treated. However, recent studies have shown that most dental emergencies are redirected to a dentist.
While this seems to be the proper thing, a good understanding of the dental emergencies that require dentist care versus those that need attention in the emergency room is critical. To avoid confusion, we would show you the 5 frequent dental emergencies you need an emergency dentist for.
Toothaches: Pain in the tooth is indicative of several oral concerns. The cause of it should be diagnosed so that treatment can be given. Pulp infections commonly trigger toothache and a particle thing stuck between two teeth. If you suddenly develop pain in the tooth and it becomes severe, it's time you seek emergency dental care. As first aid, applying a cold compress can soothe the pain.
Chipped or cracked teeth: If you have an accident, use your teeth to open bottles or bite down on hard substances, it can cause cracks or chips in your teeth. Teeth grinding (bruxism) can increase the risk of cracked teeth. Even those who clench their teeth are not spared from this issue. If you have a tooth that is cracked or chipped, you qualify for emergency dental treatment. Where the tooth is fragmented, gather the pieces, rinse them, save them in a cup of water or milk and go with it to the dental practice.
Knocked out or loose teeth: If you happen to get your face impacted during sports or any other activity such that your tooth falls out, you must see a dentist immediately. Where the tooth loosens, you should try and retain the tooth in its socket so it doesn't fall out. You can do this by biting down gently to keep the tooth in position. For the knocked-out tooth, do well to find it. When it's found, rinse it while holding the tooth by the crown. You can preserve a knocked-out tooth by reinserting it into the socket and biting down, like in the case of a loose tooth. Alternatively, storing it in a cup of milk or water while seeking an emergency dentist near me will help.
Soft tissue injury: The tongue, gums, and inside of the cheeks and lips are the mouth's soft tissues. If you mistakenly bite your tongue or lips or your gum gets injured from a face accident, it is essential to visit your emergency dentist for assistance on what to do. There are cases of soft tissue injury that may require you to get into the dentist's office. Other cases may put you in an emergency room. Injuries to the soft tissue like tears, punctures, and lacerations need to be rinsed with warm water. After that, you can stop the bleeding by applying pressure.
There are times where soft issue injury is mild. This may not require an emergency room visit or dentist. Usually, they heal on their own. But where this is not the case, kindly call in to see a dental emergency care provider.
Loose or missing dental restorations: If you have temporary restorations for a dental issue, they are most likely to come loose or get missing than the permanent type of restoration. But most importantly, there is a need for emergency dental care for restorations, whether temporary or permanent. In the case of a permanent restoration, you will come with it to your dental appointment. Where it is a temporary restoration, you can hold it in with a denture adhesive, ChapStick or Vaseline before receiving emergency dental care London.
Sometimes, missing permanent restoration may be replaced with a new one. These devices may be expensive, which is why it is imperative you keep an eye on your orthodontics all the time. However, mistakes are prone to happen – restorations can go missing completely. When it does, quickly report to your emergency dentist so that your teeth straightening will not be delayed or prolonged.
In summary
Dental issues like toothaches, injury to soft tissues, chipped or cracked teeth, knocked-out teeth, and missing dental devices are categorized as dental emergencies. Anytime you or your family member experience any of these emergencies, ensure to get an appointment with an emergency dentist for treatment.
The fact that most dental emergencies taken to the emergency room are referred to an emergency dentist adds to the pain you will experience due to delay in treatment. So, it is better you just head over to an emergency dentist London and get treated on time. This will ease your discomfort as quickly as it starts. For more details, you should visit at Emergency Dentist London pro and get the proper treatment for your dental emergencies.

Cleaning Crystals For Retainers - Loudoun Orthodontics - Dr. Richard Lee
A Comprehensive Guide To Cleaning Your Retainer Crystals: Tips, Benefits & More A retainer crystal is one of the most important pieces of jewelry you can own, and it should be taken care of with regular cleaning to maintain its luster and sparkle. But how exactly do you clean a retainer crystal? And what are the benefits of regular cleaning? In this blog post, we’ll cover everything you need to know about cleaning your retainer crystals. We'll discuss tips for proper cleaning, the benefits of regular cleaning, and more. Read on to learn more! Cleaning Crystals For Retainers What is a retainer crystal? A retainer crystal is a type of crystal that helps to hold your teeth in place. There are many different types of retainer crystals, but they all have one thing in common: they help keep your teeth straight and aligned. There are many benefits to using retainer crystals. For one, they can help improve your smile. If you have crooked or misaligned teeth, retainer crystals can help give you the appearance of straighter, more evenly spaced teeth. Another benefit of retainer crystals is that they can help keep your teeth healthy. By keeping your teeth aligned, retainer crystals can help reduce the risk of tooth decay and gum disease. Additionally, retainer crystals can also help with bite problems such as bruxism (teeth grinding). If you are considering using retainer crystals to improve your smile or dental health, it is important to consult with a dentist or orthodontist first. They will be able to determine if retainer crystals are right for you and provide guidance on how to properly use them. Benefits of cleaning your retainer crystals If you’re like most people, you probably don’t give much thought to your retainer crystals. But did you know that cleaning your retainer crystals can have some major benefits? For one, it can help keep your retainer looking its best. If you’ve ever seen a dirty or discolored retainer, you know how unappealing it can be. But by regularly cleaning your retainer crystals, you can help keep it looking like new. In addition to keeping your retainer looking good, cleaning your retainer crystals can also help reduce the risk of infection. When bacteria and other contaminants build up on your retainer, it creates an ideal environment for infection. But by regularly cleaning your crystals, you can help remove these contaminants and reduce your risk of infection. Finally, cleaning your retainer crystals can also help extend the life of your retainer. Just like any other piece of jewelry, retainers are subject to wear and tear. But by regularly cleaning and taking care of your crystals, you can help extend the life of your retainer and keep it looking its best for longer.

Night one of having a retainer for my sleep bruxism:
