How to Stop Kids from Grinding Their Teeth?
Grinding of teeth, also known as bruxism, is a common problem in children, especially during sleep. This habit not only affects the child's dental health but also affects the quality of their sleep. If left untreated, it can lead to serious dental problems such as enamel wear, gum recession, and even jaw problems.
So, how can you stop your child from grinding their teeth? Listed below are some recommendations.
Visit the Best Dentist in California
The first step in stopping your child from grinding their teeth is to visit the best dentist in California. Your dentist will examine your child's teeth and determine the cause of the problem. They may also recommend a mouthguard or a splint to be worn during sleep to protect their teeth.
2. Reduce Stress
Stress is a common cause of bruxism in children. Encourage your child to participate in activities that they enjoy, such as playing sports or engaging in creative pursuits. This will help reduce stress and prevent them from grinding their teeth.
3. Change Sleeping Habits
Ensure that your child has a comfortable sleeping environment and that they are not sleeping on their stomach. This can put pressure on their jaw and increase the likelihood of grinding their teeth.
4. Address Underlying Health Issues
Some health conditions, such as allergies or acid reflux, can lead to bruxism in children. If you suspect that your child has a health condition that is causing them to grind their teeth, it's important to have them evaluated by a medical professional.
5. Encourage Good Dental Hygiene
Good dental hygiene is essential in preventing bruxism in children. Encourage your child to brush their teeth twice a day, floss daily, and rinse their mouth with mouthwash. This will help keep their teeth and gums healthy and reduce the likelihood of grinding their teeth.
6. Avoid Certain Foods and Drinks
Certain foods and drinks, such as caffeine, can increase the likelihood of bruxism in children. Encourage your child to avoid these substances and instead opt for healthier options, such as water or milk.
7. Encourage Relaxation Techniques
Teach your child relaxation techniques, such as deep breathing and progressive muscle relaxation, to help them unwind before bedtime. This will reduce stress and help prevent bruxism.
In conclusion, stopping your child from grinding their teeth requires a combination of preventative measures and treatments. Visiting the best dentist in California is an important first step, as they can determine the cause of the problem and recommend appropriate treatments. Implementing the tips listed above can also help reduce the likelihood of bruxism in children.
It's important to take bruxism in children seriously, as it can lead to serious dental problems if left untreated. By working with your child and the best dentist in California, you can help stop this harmful habit and ensure that your child has a healthy and happy smile.

Screw it, can we just get a script for part of an episode of A-town at this point?
[For those of you just tuning in: A-Town is the shitty postwar sitcom inspired by the life of Jake Berenson, to the eternal annoyance of Jake Berenson. The main character is a kid named Brandon A., who lives with his nuclear family — mom Dr. A, dad Mr. A, sister Daisy A. (secretly a yeerk named Zeptron 420), dog Mopsy (secretly Brandon's friends in morph) — in Southern California at the height of the war. Brandon secretly leads a team of alien-fighting shapeshifters that consists of him, his best friend J.J., his cousin Trina, his sometimes-girlfriend Crystal, Trina's sometimes-boyfriend Liam, and Liam's stepsister Gina.]
We open on the spacious kitchen of a large suburban home. Mr. A sits reading the paper and smoking a pipe inside, while his son Brandon sits at the same table with a large set of schematics spread out in front of him. Dr. A, in a lab coat overtop a house dress, walks into the room.
Dr. A: Brandon, what's that?
Brandon: *throws himself bodily over the map* Nothing!
[cue laugh track]
Dr. A: Is that... Dear sweet heavens above, it is!
[The camera pans up to show Brandon is clearly failing to cover the floor plan for a Blade ship, and that Mr. A is now craning around the side of his paper to see what the commotion is about.]
Dr. A: Honey, our son... is doing... *loud gasp* Dunces and Dragoons!
Mr. A: *drops his pipe on his paper in shock* *lights the paper on fire, must hastily tamp it out* Dungarees and Dingbats? My own SON?
[cue laugh track]
Brandon: Mom, Dad, I would never! I'm just... I'm only... It was... *directly to the camera* I have no choice — they think I'm playing Dunkin' and Dragnet! *to Dr. A.* There's this alien invasion, Mom, and me and cousin Trina are two of the only six people who have the power to —
Mr. A: *very high pitched* It's affecting his mind already! Look at him, he's lost the plot!
[Cut to a set that looks like the waiting room for a dentist's office. Brandon's older sister Daisy is standing near the front of a queue that stretches the length of the room. Like almost everyone else in line, she is wearing a t-shirt for The Gathering; hers is bright pink and cut into a crop-top, paired with a pink miniskirt and platform heels. The walls are adorned with posters that have slogans like "Do your part for the Yeerk Empire today! If you see a suspicious animal: slay, slay, SLAY!" and "Don't forget to sign up your host's friends and family for our Eternal Member perks program!" Visser Six-Hundred is at the front of the line, typing names into a computer.]
Visser Six-Hundred: Next!
Daisy: Um, hi? I'm Daisy, and after you guys lured me into the Gathering by promising I'd get to meet shirtless Tom Welling — which still hasn't happened, by the way — you stuck my head in a pool and then this total jerk named Zeptron 420 took my body? And anyway, Zeptron never showed up after that last feeding, and I was just wondering...?
Visser Six-Hundred: Not my problem.
Daisy: No, I get that Mr. Welling is a very busy man, but I don't think I'm supposed to go anywhere without Zeptron controlling me?
Visser Six-Hundred: Also not my problem. You have any idea how backed up we've been around here since the kandrona shortage started? Leave now, check back in next cycle, and if Zeptron's not back by then we'll call you.
Daisy: Okay, but...
[camera pans to Daisy's face; the actor, does a very convincing job of realization dawning on the world's silliest airhead]
Daisy: K-thanks-bye! *runs for it*
[Cut back to the A family kitchen. Dr. A is taking Brandon's temperature.]
Dr. A: Looks normal to me. Maybe he isn't getting Durkins and Drainage syndrome yet.
Mr. A: Yeah, if anyone has brain rot it's that darn dog. Thing ain't right, I'm telling you.
[Cut to Mopsy, a fluffy grey-and-white terrier. The dog is currently staring intently at a copy of For Whom the Bell Tolls, which is propped open on the floor.]
Dr. A: What do you mean, ain't right?
Brandon: Yeah, Dad, 'ain't' isn't a word!
[cue laugh track]
[Cut back to Mopsy, who has clearly overheard this conversation and has attempted to hide the book by sticking it underneath a laptop computer, and is playing innocent by staring at the screen instead.]
Mr. A: Just look at her! She's playing Minesweeper!
[The camera zooms in on the screen, revealing that this is in fact the case. An extreme close-up of one of the dog's paws moving across the computer track pad is paired with a shot of the screen going to Xs as she hits a mine. A dog's upset whine is heard.]
Brandon: Come on, she's not even doing well.
J.J.: *in voiceover meant to indicate thought-speak* You try avoiding mines with these tiny paws, loser!
Dr. A: You know, maybe we should get that checked out.
J.J.: VET? Not the vet!
Brandon: *out loud* Don’t be such a baby! Get control of your morph, man!
Dr. A: Then again, maybe the Dungenous Drags are getting to him.
Brandon: Uh, I mean...
J.J.: *runs for it* Bye!
Brandon: I mean, after her!
[While Dr. and Mr. A chase "Mopsy" around the house, J.J. maneuvers Brandon into being the only one in the room when he demorphs. Brandon has to hastily morph into Mopsy to avoid being found out. Trina and Liam stop by Brandon's house to ask Brandon a question, and Brandon maneuvers Liam into being Mopsy just as Mr. A is pulling out the pet carrier. But then human Trina rushes into the room, creating a diversion by claiming a "hairspray emergency", and Mopsy runs off. It's at that point that the B plot intersects with the A plot.]
[Daisy walks into the house. She's wearing black skinny jeans, fingerless gloves, and rainbow hair extensions. There's pop punk music blasting from the giant headphones slung around her neck.]
Mr. A: Get the— *watches Mopsy escape out the front door* Dang it!
Daisy: Dad, you might have noticed I’ve been going through some changes lately. Like I’m becoming a whole different person.
Mr. A: Honey, at your age, it's perfectly normal.
[Mr. A pulls out a box of tampons, seemingly from nowhere, and hands them to Daisy.]
[cue laugh track]
[Liam-as-Mopsy runs around the side of the house, now pursued by J.J. Trina is running after J.J.; together they complete two entire loops of the house. Meanwhile, Brandon is on the phone inside, everyone else passing by in the background. There's presumably an unseen swap, because Liam-as-a-human is seen chasing a different Mopsy, pursued by an enraged-looking Trina who is now holding a knife, while she is in turn pursued by Gina, who appears to be trying to talk her down. There's no audible dialogue, but we cut to Crystal on the other end of the phone, standing in her living room.]
Crystal:... got it! *hangs up the phone* *yells up the stairs* Hey, Mom?
Crystal's Mom: *enters the room* Yes, Crystal?
Crystal: You're looking a little unwell. Why don't you...
[Crystal touches her mom's arm. We hear the tinkling piano notes used to indicate someone is being acquired, and glitter effects briefly fill the screen.]
Crystal's Mom: Now that you mention it...
[She passes out onto the couch, apparently as a side effect of being acquired. This has never happened before, but with this show it's generally best to avoid asking too many questions.]
[Cut back to the A house. Daisy and Dr. A are standing in the kitchen.]
Daisy: Mom, do you ever feel like the whole world's out to get you? Like, do you ever suspect there's a giant conspiracy of alien invaders who are...
Dr. A: *distracted* Oh honey, did you get passed up to be Prom Queen again?
[Dr. A drops a kiss on Daisy's head, before running off in pursuit of Mopsy, who has gotten ahold of the knife and is trying to use it to pick the lock on the back door.]
[Cut to the exterior, where Liam and Brandon are watching the knife blade repeatedly stab through the door six inches off the ground.]
Brandon: You cheated on her again?
Liam: *sighs* Yeah, I cheated on her again.
[Cut back to the interior. Cue ominous music, as the chase speeds up. We see Trina-as-human again, gloating over who we can only assume is Liam-as-Mopsy. They struggle, and she makes an exaggerated face of shock as the dog is meant to have bitten her. Mopsy goes running off again, only to be caught by J.J. There's a scuffle, they roll behind the bushes, and a human Liam emerges holding J.J.-as-Mopsy. Brandon comes running outside with an expression of horror, and Gina dive-tackles both Liam and J.J.-as-Mopsy. Using extreme close-ups, we get only tiny hints of the scuffle, but the human J.J. and Liam would suggest that Gina has now ended up as Mopsy.]
[The montage sequence becomes something straight out of Scooby Doo, with all of the characters sprinting between doors and various mini-encounters including one where two copies of Mopsy are seen backing into each other and yapping in horror, running off in opposite directions before Dr. A can see their error. Why anyone is bothering to morph the dog at all remains an open question.]
[The montage ends with a clang as Mr. A shuts the door of the pet carrier on a Mopsy. The camera pans to a scratched and dirt-covered Brandon, then Trina, then Liam, then Gina... It's J.J. in the pet carrier. As the camera pushes toward J.J.'s fluffy little face frozen in an expression of horror, there's a smash cut to Crystal-as-Crystal's-mom standing in a vet's office talking to a middle-aged woman.]
Crystal: No, I did not lose your hamster — I know exactly where he is. I left him in the same room as Mr. Tyrus's ball python, and... *leans around a door frame to look off camera* *winces at what she sees*
Middle-Aged Extra: Y-yes?
Crystal: You can still see him... He's that big lump right in the middle...
Middle-Aged Extra: *screams* *faints*
Crystal: *to the camera* Brandon better hurry up. If she thinks that's bad, she should see what I did to the parrot.
Parrot: *off camera* And f[bleep] you too, you [bleep] [bleep] [bleep]!
[J.J.-as-Mopsy gets loaded into the car. The music is getting ominous, and all is looking lost, when suddenly Daisy runs out in front of the minivan.]
Daisy: Mom, Dad, I can't take it anymore! I've had someone inside me, and his name is Zeptron!
[Thus, the day is saved and J.J. is snatched from the jaws of a routine pelvic exam by Mr. and Dr. A cutting the vet visit short to instead rush Daisy to the doctor for remedial Sex Ed. Only Brandon realizes what she's talking about, judging by the expression on his face, but the camera doesn't linger there. Instead we see the minivan pull up to the vet at top speed. Mr. A gets out only long enough to thrust the pet carrier into the arms of Crystal-as-Crystal's-mom, and then the car drives off. It screeches to a stop at a near-identical office, only the poster of a dog wearing a stethoscope out front has become a poster of a uterus wearing a stethoscope. Dr. A walks in, dragging Daisy by the arm and shaking her head.]
[Cut back to the vet's office, where J.J.-as-Mopsy licks Crystal-as-Crystal's-mom on the cheek. Cue laugh track. Cue awww sounds.]
[As the credits fill half the screen, we get one last scene of Brandon standing outside Daisy's door. He's obviously nervous, rehearsing a conversation. Brandon leans against Daisy's door and it swings open, causing him to stumble into the room. Cue laugh track.]
Brandon: Hey, Daisy? About what you said earlier...
[Daisy is sitting with her back to the camera. When she does turn around, we get a slow reveal that she's back in pancake makeup, blond hair, and a pink sundress. She has the Myspace page for The Gathering open on the computer in front of her.]
"Daisy": *long pause* Yes, Brandon? You are my human brother, and I am happy to assist.
Brandon: Uh. *slow close-up on his face, as he clearly realizes what has happened* Never mind.
"Daisy": *another long pause* I'm sorry to hear that, Brandon. Human minds are often imperfect, are they not?
[cue laugh track]
[credits fill the screen]

GJ Families - Headcanon Mini-Post
I’ve wanted to do this for a while, but because I’m very busy at the moment, it’s hard to find the time to make big posts. So, I’m trying my best to be okay with making smaller, more simple posts, and this is kind of testing that format. And what better than sharing some headcanons about what I think the Go Jetters’ families are like?? It’s been a long time coming, haha.
For now, I’m only doing the Funky Five (Xuli, Kyan, Lars, Foz and Tala), but maybe in the future I’ll drop a thing or two about the others. Each character has their own little section, with a mini-Drabble about what I think their family structure is, and maybe even some little HCs about some of the members. I hope you like this layout, and feel free to ask questions ! Any rude comments will be deleted.
XULI
Xuli is adopted! She has two mothers, Alejandra and Lina, who adopted her when she was two. Additionally, she has an older brother, Sol, age 19- who is her biological brother- and a younger sister named Aurelia, age 12, who is also adopted. Xuli’s family is upper middle class, her Mum (Alejandra) working as a lawyer, and her Mama (Lina) working as a hairdresser. Xuli’s family is very loving and supporting of her endeavors, and she has her Mum’s stubborn personality and her Mama’s love for sightseeing !
KYAN
Kyan was raised in a multi-generational household, living with both his parents and his grandparents in California. His grandparents and parents are all immigrants from China, with Kyan being the first of their family to be born in the states. His Father, Mako, along with his grandparents, run a popular Chinese restaurant on a boardwalk, which Kyan used to work at as a child, while his mother, Daiyu, works as a dentist. Kyan is particularly close with his grandparents, who were very supportive of his athletic dreams in particular.
LARS
Lars grew up in the countryside, on a small farm, with his single Dad, Dominic, Aunt Cheryl and Uncle Benjamin, as well as his little sister, Juno, and his younger twin cousins, Aria and Piper. While living on the farm instilled a love of animals early, his love for machinery came from there too, watching how the different machinery there worked, and learning to fix tractors and farm gear by watching his uncle- and quickly becoming better than him at it! Lars is very close with his family, but has a specially strong bond with both his sister and cousins.
FOZ
Foz is from a richer family, and is an “age gap” kid- meaning that there’s at least 10 years between him and his siblings. He lives with his Mother and Father- the owners of a jewelry company, and an emerald mine, while his three older siblings, Stephanie (27), Andrew (23) and Austin (23), have already moved out of home to peruse their own careers. Foz isn’t particularly close with the rest of his family, having attended boarding school before the GJA, and not growing up alongside his siblings.
TALA
Tala’s family is very well off- after all, with a family history as incredible as the Glitches have, how couldn’t they be? Tala lives with her father, Gabriel Glitch - who is Grandmaster Glitch’s twin brother, and her mother, Reagan Cade-Glitch, as well as her half-brother on her mom’s side, Callum Cade, in the Glitch Estate, which has been in their family for years. Tala spend much of her time as a child in the garden, talking with the family’s gardener about new and fun plant or bug facts.
Thank-you for reading all the way through !! Again, I hope that you guys find my personal headcanons fun and interesting! I wanted the GJ to all have different kinds of family groups, as opposed to just having “nuclear” families, because I think that it’s just boring if they’re all very similar, and different kinds of family representation is important to many people, including myself !! Feel free to ask any questions you may have in the comments, and I’ll try my best to answer them ! (:

ANTHONY PERKINS
ANTHONY PERKINS
1932-1992
Anthony Perkins was an American actor who is best known for playing Norman Bates in Psycho (1960). He worked as an actor on both stage and screen. Perkins appeared in: Friendly Persuasion (1956), On the Beach (1959), Psycho (1960), Murder on the Orient Express (1974), Les Miserables (1978), The Sins of Dorian Gray (1983), and Napoleon and Josephine: A Love Story (1987).
Perkins was born in Manhattan, New York, US and was the son of an actor. His descendants were passengers on the Mayflower ship. He spent little time with his father and grew up around females and was sexually assaulted by his mother. His mother moved to Boston and worked in the theatre which Perkins gained an interest in. During school he appeared in numerous plays and then moved to California to pursue his acting career.
Perkins pursued the lead role in East of Eden and Rebel Without a Cause; both roles went to James Dean. Hitchcock cast Perkins in Psycho after watching him in Friendly Persuasion. It was made on a low budget with Perkins and Leigh accepting low salaries. The film was a success and Perkins became internationally famous. At the end of his life he was to be a voice actor for a dentist character in The Simpsons, however died before his part was recorded.
Perkins was married and had two children. In 1973, Perkins married Berry Berenson and they had two children together. They were still married when Perkins died of AIDS in 1992. Berenson, 53, died on 11 September 2001 as one of the passengers on American Airlines Flight 11. The plane was hijacked by Islamic terrorists and was crashed into the North Tower of the World Trade Center (the second tower to be hit).
Perkins started experimenting sexually with men during college and his homosexuality continued throughout his life. He went to therapy in 1971 after he and his male partner believed their homosexuality was obstructing their happiness and wanted to restart their lives with women and Perkins later stated that he wanted that period of his life over with ‘I just didn’t want it anymore.’ It is disputed whether Hopkins was homosexual or bi, in 1983 he stated that it was his mother’s sexual abuse that had something to do with it which led him to ‘being unable to see a beautiful woman.’ Perkins had same-sex relationships throughout his adult life, some of these relationships were long term.
Perkins supported causes such as civil rights and feminism and stated that men should take on ‘motherly’ roles and stated that he changed diapers and fed his children. He was a volunteer at an organization which delivered meals to HIV and AIDs patients (before he was diagnosed with AIDs). Perkins mother was strictly religious, however; Perkins called himself an atheist.
During filming Psycho IV: The Beginning, he was tested for HIV and died at his LA home on 12 September 1992 from AIDs related pneumonia, aged 60.

Brendan Eder Ensemble - Therapy - the premise "what would Richard D. James do with a chamber ensemble and a church organ?" yields an utterly transcendent album
Brendan Eder is a Los Angeles composer and drummer best-known for his eponymous genre-bending ensemble of woodwinds, drumset, and bass; as well as his film scoring work, most notably on four short films for director Ari Aster. On March 3, 2023 Eder releases his third album, Therapy: a collection of meditative woodwind arrangements recorded primarily at Church of the Good Shepherd in Arcadia, California. Following 2021’s Cape Cod Cottage — Eder’s concept album under the guise of Edward Blankman, a retired dentist in the 1970s, which added elegant, understated jazz to the ensembles' repertoire — on Therapy, Eder drops the alter ego and the drumset (almost entirely) and begins with a new directive: What would ambient mastermind Richard D. James do with a chamber ensemble and a church organ? It was a question Eder had started to ask in 2020 with his cover of “#20 (Lichen).” Listeners responded with over one million streams. Appropriately, Therapy delivers two new Aphex Twin arrangements alongside eight original pieces. The result is a distinctive take on New Age and ambient music subtly interwoven with Eder’s affinity for 20th century classical and jazz. Maintaining his track record of recording the best musicians Eder can find, Therapy features special guests Nailah Hunter (harp), Henry Solomon (saxophone), and Ethan Haman on The Newberry Memorial Organ at Yale University. - Rebeca Arango Written and Produced by Brendan Eder* Christine Tavolacci - flute, piccolo flute Henry Solomon - alto sax Amber Wyman - bassoon Andrew Conrad - Bb and bass clarinet (2, 4-7) Sérgio Coelho - Bb and bass clarinet (1, 3, 8, 9) Eric McCann - electric bass (1-3, 6, 8) Brendan Eder - keyboards and percussion (2, 4-6, 8-10) Leah Paul - flute (1, 9) Ethan Haman - organ (3) Nailah Hunter - harp (4) Logan Kane - upright bass (10) Marissa Honda - english horn (10) Recorded at Church of the Good Shepherd, Arcadia, CA** Engineered by Brendan Eder Assistant Engineering by Eric McCann Mixed by Brendan Eder Mastered by Chris Sorem Album Art by Adam Rabinowitz Album Design by Maziyar Pahlevan *#3 (Rhubarb) and #17 written by Richard D James (BMG Blue) **Organ on “Ending” recorded on The Newberry Memorial Organ, Yale University, New Haven, MA.

Listening to Rachel Maddow's Ultra podcast is wild. If you have a few hours while cooking, traveling, exercising, etc. give it a chance. You'll learn about:
1. U.S. Senators and Representatives acting as Nazi mouthpieces (literally giving speeches written by Hitler's government).
2. A scheme to use the ability of those Congressmembers to send free mail to direct mail Nazi propaganda to their constituents.
3. Rampant antisemitism here, yes here in America, during the 1930s and 40s, and homegrown Nazis who really liked what fascism and Hitler were doing in Germany. You get to learn about their dumb little uniforms and assaholic nonsense and horrific violence. Because they might not have been in Germany but they were still Nazis, even when they said things like "America First."
4. Trials more insane than any of Trump's (30 defendants, 22 defense attorneys, a full month of jury selection, one guy trying to run, one dying, another keeping everyone waiting for an hour while he was at the dentist and so on).
5. An awesome Jewish guy, Leon Lewis, from Southern California who became a spymaster (with subordinate spies) against various Nazi groups because the government wasn't doing anything. His people literally told the government (Congress, who passed it to the FBI) in detail that a munitions factory was going to be attacked. They did nothing and it happened exactly as they said. He did this for something like seven years with little success in getting people to listen before the government finally descended to collect all the information he and his people had gathered so it could be used to prosecute people.
6. A crazy North Dakota governor who was federally convicted of a crime, ordered removed from office, refused to go, barricaded himself in the ND governor's office, staged an insurrection, and then refused to leave office. He finally left, but he managed to overturn the conviction and then got elected as a U.S. Senator from North Dakota.
7. A poor prosecutor, John Rogge, who did his best to get seditionists convicted for working with Nazis. He had a rough time of things.
It's very informative. Terrifying in its parallels to modern times and saddening, both in how awful people were, and how awful they can still be. Frustrating, because the heroes fighting Nazism and corruption don't always win. Not everyone got their comeuppance. But it's worth listening to.
#yes im two years late to season one#but podcasts only started making their way into my life when i started listening to them while cooking#rachel maddow#podcasts#antisemitism#1940s nazism#leon lewis#leon lewis is a bad ass#the antisemitism mentioned is horrific#ultra#john rogge#Jewish heroes

Human AU — A Quick Summary
Quick overview of all the fizzies as humans ♥︎ Enjoy!
Also long post ahoy!
✒ THIZZY >> FUMIHIRO
Cis Male // 29 yrs // Therapist
Fumihiro works as a therapist and is not doing... that great money wise. College absolutely ruined him, his family often wants him to help them fund their own projects, and he's terrible at saying no. He takes on more work than he's capable of, and he often works for free. He complains, but he just needs to grow a spine. Life IS pretty ridiculously unfair, though... and it doesn't help that his roommate Corwin is so overbearing and suffocating either.
✚ DOC >> CORWIN
Demiboy [amab] // 28 yrs // Dentist
Corwin is Fumihiro's childhood friend and has always been an outcast. With a morbid interest in teeth, blood and gore, he was also struggling with depression and unhealthy coping behaviour. He's obnoxious, is unabashedly himself, and he's got crazy ADHD... but also RSD. And he's so lonely... he craves intimacy something fierce, and he Clings to Fumihiro as the only person who ever gave him a genuine chance. He gets his fix at the bar several times a week where he hooks up with whoever wants to give him a try, but nothing ever goes anywhere... Why won't anybody just love him already?
დ MIZZY >> MINNIE
Trans Woman // 26 yrs // Online Personality
Minnie is a weeb and an amazing cosplayer, streamer, and she spends a lot of her time online making silly videos for people who simp for her. She doesn't mind, it pays the bills, and her OnlyFans is doing good, thank you guys!! During the day she works as a server at a local cafe that does dress ups at times (the maid outfits are her favourite). Minnie is a sweetheart, but a bit of a doormat... having came out of a physically and emotionally abusive relationship not too long ago, she's still working on loving herself. She's still recovering, doing her very best...
☽ GINGER >> SABRINA
Genderfluid [amab] // 25 yrs // Babysitter
Younger sister to Pinwheel/Luca, and can't stand him. She felt abandoned by her only remaining family member when he was becoming a chore to look after, when his substance abuse and illegal activities only increased and escalated.. So she ended up moving out. He now works as a babysitter, it's rough and the family takes advantage of her charity, but it's nice to feel... needed. To be a part of a family. She has a lot of spice, but below the sour exterior, she's got a big heart.
♠︎ MORTIS >> MORDECAI
Cis Male // 51 yrs // Funeral Director & Mortician & Coffin Maker [hobby]
Mordecai has been pretty rooted in place for the last 51 years... Growing up in Oklahoma, he eventually moved to eastern California where he set up a funeral home and a stable. Death wasn't really fascinating to him... but rather, he had seen it happen many times in his life, and found that the end of a life... had to have meant something, for those left behind. He wanted to lift the spirits of those who remained, and celebrate the life that had burned so bright, and either suddenly been snuffed out, or slowly dimmed down. He wanted to make the funeral peaceful. The passing natural. The communication between the dead and the living easier. So he started his business.
Moving to New York, he did so to keep a family member company during her final years before sickness takes her life, setting up a new business in the city to keep on doing what he was always doing... but city life is quite different from the mountain ranges of Oklahoma or endless deserts of California.
$ THE MANAGER >> NOEL, second name GURUMARRA
Trans Man // 36 yrs // Business Owner etc... Manager of Loo Loo Park
Noel is an entrepenur and a visionary. Starting off at the bottom of the barrel like so many of us, he figured out how to work the system from a young age, always having a nose for business, and a feeling for when to strike. What opportunities were lucrative and which ones were a waste. Quickly, he went from a simple office rat to team leader, boss, CEO, and now he manages more businesses than you can count on one hand.
His current "project" is the Loo Loo Park (alternate version of Luna Park) in NYC, and while he sits comfortably in Manhattan, he makes bank without much effort anymore. Noel is smug, careful in his wording, and will come across as quite lighthearted if you don't know any better. He's always five steps ahead, but his confidence in his own ability can also become his biggest weakness. Oh yeah also he's Pinwheel's boss/blackmailer. He's got a collaboration going on with Mammon to use Fizzarolli's likeness and sell his merchandise.

Muse List
❃ LUCA // PINWHEEL
tag | art | hcs | musings | aes | fashion
Demiboy [afab] // he/they // 29 // Drug Dealer & Celebrity Lookalike/Performance Artist
Luca, or "Pinwheel" as most call him, lives in a ratty little apartment in New York City, Queens, and makes most of his money off of selling drugs. During the day though, he'll go to Loo Loo Amusement Park [Remake of Luna Park on Coney Island] where he plays the role of a celebrity performance artist which he is a lookalike of.
He fucking hates the gig, but he looks so similar to him, he has the energy and dexterity to pull it off, and well... the owner blackmailed him, threatening to report him to the authorities for his drug dealing, and Luca needs to Not end up in jail.
So he finds himself doing it despite not getting paid. He's rarely sober, often on some kind of pills, and barely keeps enough cash on him to pay rent. It's honestly a bit of a miracle that he still lives at the apartment complex. He reeks of booze and nicotine and whatever else he's been smoking, and doesn’t have a single friend.
✒ FUMIHIRO
tag | art | hcs | musings | aes | fashion
Cis Male // he/him // 29 yrs // Therapist
Fumihiro works as a therapist in NYC and is not doing... that great money wise. College absolutely ruined him, his family often wants him to help them fund their own projects, and he's terrible at saying no. He takes on more work than he's capable of, and he often works for free. He complains, but he just needs to grow a spine. Life IS pretty ridiculously unfair, though... and it doesn't help that his roommate Corwin is incredibly overbearing and suffocating either.
✚ CORWIN
tag | art | hcs | musings | aes | fashion
Demiboy [amab] // he/they // 28 yrs // Dentist
Corwin is Fumihiro's childhood friend and has always been an outcast. With a morbid interest in teeth, he was also struggling with depression and unhealthy coping behaviour. He's obnoxious, is unabashedly himself, and he's got crazy ADHD... but also RSD. And he's so lonely... he craves intimacy something fierce, and he Clings to Fumihiro as the only person who ever gave him a genuine chance. He occasionally performs in drag, and he gets his fix at the bar several times a week where he hooks up with whoever wants to give him a try, but nothing ever goes anywhere... Why won't anybody just love him already?
დ MINNIE
tag | art | hcs | musings | aes | fashion
Trans Woman // she/her // 26 yrs // Online Personality
Minnie is a weeb and an amazing cosplayer, YouTuber, and she spends a lot of her time online making silly videos for people who simp for her. She doesn't mind, it pays the bills, and her OnlyFans is doing good, thank you guys!! During the day she works as a server at a local cafe that does dress ups at times (the maid outfits are her favourite). Minnie is a sweetheart, but a bit of a doormat... having came out of a physically and emotionally abusive relationship not too long ago, she's still working on loving herself. She's still recovering, doing her very best...
☽ SABRINA
tag | art | hcs | musings | aes | fashion
Genderfluid [amab] // any pronouns // 25 yrs // Babysitter
Younger sister to Luca, who can't stand him. She felt abandoned by her only remaining family member when he was becoming a chore to look after, when his substance abuse and illegal activities only increased and escalated while she was left alone at home, fending for herself... So she ended up moving out. He now works as a babysitter, it's rough and the family takes advantage of their charity, but it's nice to feel... needed. To be a part of a family. She has a lot of spice, but below the sour exterior, he's got a big heart.
♠︎ MORDECAI BARNES
tag | art | hcs | musings | aes | fashion
Cis Male // he/him // 51 yrs // Funeral Director & Mortician & Coffin Maker [hobby]
Mordecai has been pretty rooted in place for the last 51 years... Growing up in Oklahoma, he eventually moved to eastern California where he set up a funeral home and a stable. Death wasn't really fascinating to him... but rather, he had seen it happen many times in his life, and found that the end of a life... had to have meant something, for those left behind. He wanted to lift the spirits of those who remained, and celebrate the life that had burned so bright, and either suddenly been snuffed out, or slowly dimmed down. He wanted to make the funeral peaceful. The passing natural. The communication between the dying, the dead, and the living, easier. So he started his business.
Moving to New York, he did so to keep a family member company during her final years before sickness takes her life, setting up a new business in the city to keep on doing what he was always doing... but city life is quite different from the mountain ranges of Oklahoma or endless deserts of California.
Mordecai doesn't say more than he has to, the quiet sort who notices everything but says nothing. When he does speak up, his southern drawl is almost distracting, but his words always carry wisdom.
$ NOEL CAMPBELL, second name GURUMARRA
tag | art | hcs | musings | aes | fashion
Trans Man // he/him // 36 yrs // Business Tycoon, owner of several clubs across NYC, Manager of Loo Loo Park. Also deals with money laundering, espionage and is a loan shark of course
Noel is an entrepenur and a visionary. Starting off at the bottom of the barrel like so many of us, he figured out how to work the system from a young age, always having a nose for business, and a feeling for when to strike. What opportunities were lucrative and which ones were a waste. Quickly, he went from a simple office rat to team leader, boss, CEO, and now he manages more businesses than you can count on one hand.
His current "project" is the Loo Loo Park (alternate version of Luna Park on Coney Island) in NYC, and while he sits comfortably in Manhattan, he makes bank without much effort anymore.

No gender // it/they // A few years old // Clown Mascot/Spy/Bodyguard Android
An android Noel has placed in "Loo Loo park" to play the role of a pierrot-themed mascot named Loo Loo. It has some other dubious functions as well, such as the ability to switch its face, voice and build around, hide weapons on its person, and of course, record conversations. It is rather uncanny to look at, its voice a bit off and its behaviour a bit too inhuman... at least when it is at the park. When it's working undercover by Noel's side, it is near indistinguishable from a real person.
The android is generally soft spoken and gentle in its mannerisms, supposedly it'd make it approachable, but is just seems to creep kids out.

Common Root Canal Misconceptions You Shouldn't Believe
Common Root Canal Misconceptions You Shouldn't Believe
Myths and misconceptions about root canals are common, and they may discourage patients from getting the necessary dental care. Knowing the facts concerning root canals, in our opinion as a Best Dentist in Morgan Hill, California, can enable individuals to make wise choices regarding their oral health. Here, we dispel some of the most widespread misconceptions about root canal therapy.
Myth 1: Root Canals Are Painful
The idea that root canal therapy is painful is among the most widespread misconceptions. In actuality, the purpose of root canal therapy is to alleviate the discomfort brought on by damaged or diseased teeth. The majority of patients have very little discomfort throughout the treatment because of contemporary anesthetic and sophisticated methods. A lot of people say that their pretreatment discomfort was far worse than the actual operation.
Myth 2: A Root Canal Means Losing Your Tooth
A common misconception is that getting a root canal would always result in having your tooth extracted. This is untrue. A root canal's main objective is to preserve your original tooth by extracting the diseased pulp and sealing it to stop future infections. It is always better to keep your natural tooth since it keeps your bite in place and stops neighboring teeth from moving.
Myth 3: Root Canals Cause Illness
The idea that root canal therapy can result in systemic health problems is another misconception. This notion is based on antiquated beliefs that have been refuted by contemporary research. There is no solid evidence linking root canal therapy to general health issues, according to numerous research. Actually, you can stop bacteria from spreading throughout your body by taking care of an infected tooth.
Myth 4: You Only Need a Root Canal If You Have Severe Pain
Although it's not the only indication, extreme discomfort may be a clue that you require a root canal. Additional symptoms could be tooth discolouration, sensitivity to heat or cold, or swelling. At Avenue Dentistry, routine dental examinations can assist in spotting problems before they become more serious and need to be treated.
Myth 5: The Success Rate of Root Canals Is Low
Some patients worry that the success rate of root canal therapy is low and that it is ineffective. Conversely, research shows that over 95% of root canals are successful. Many teeth that have had root canal therapy can last a lifetime with the right maintenance and routine dental checkups.
Myth 6: Root Canals Are Expensive
Root canals are frequently less expensive than tooth extraction followed by implant placement or other restorative treatments, despite the fact that some patients may think they are expensive. Additionally, a large percentage of the cost of root canal therapy is covered by many insurance policies. To assist with the management of dental costs, Avenue Dentistry provides financing options.
Myth 7: After a Root Canal, You’ll Need More Dental Work
Sometimes, patients think that getting a root canal may result in more dental problems down the road. However, there is no reason why a treated tooth cannot continue to be healthy for many years to come if it is done correctly and is followed with the proper restorative procedures (such as crowns).
Conclusion
By being aware of these widespread misconceptions regarding root canals, patients can feel less anxious and be more inclined to get the dental care they need without holding back. Dr. Trisha Deb and her staff at Avenue Dentistry are committed to offering compassionate care and making sure each patient is at ease and educated during their course of treatment.
Please do not hesitate to contact Avenue Dentistry in Morgan Hill if you have any questions or concerns regarding root canals or any other dental procedures. With individualized treatment catered to your requirements, we are here to assist you in achieving the best possible dental health.

If you’re searching for top-tier dental care that won’t break the bank, you’ve come to the right place. Whether you need a routine check-up, a porcelain crown dental solution, or affordable options like cheap dental bridges, finding the right dental practice can make all the difference in maintaining your oral health. In Turlock, CA, there are plenty of excellent dental care providers who are dedicated to offering quality care for all patients.
Let’s explore the ins and outs of dentistry Turlock CA, where you’ll find a variety of services such as dental cavity fillings, dental tooth fillings, and much more.
What to Expect from Dentistry in Turlock, CA
In Turlock, California, the local dentists are known for their expertise, compassion, and dedication to patient care. They offer a broad range of services that cater to every type of dental need. From cosmetic procedures like porcelain crown dental treatments to general care like dental cavity fillings, these professionals aim to provide top-notch service at affordable prices. The best part? Many of them focus on making dental visits comfortable and stress-free.
Why Choose Dentists in Turlock, CA?
Choosing the right dentist is no small feat. After all, your dental health is directly linked to your overall well-being. The dentists in Turlock, California are known for their patient-centered approach. They take the time to listen to your concerns, explain procedures, and offer solutions that fit both your health needs and your budget. Plus, with many financing options available, you’ll have peace of mind knowing that great dental care is within reach.
The Importance of Regular Dental Check-Ups
You’ve probably heard it before: “Prevention is better than cure.” This couldn’t be truer when it comes to dental health. Regular check-ups with your Turlock dentist can help detect problems early, saving you time, money, and discomfort down the line. Whether it’s identifying early signs of cavities or recommending a porcelain crown to restore a damaged tooth, routine visits are key to maintaining a healthy smile.
Porcelain Crowns: A Durable Solution for Damaged Teeth
If you’ve ever had a tooth that’s been cracked, chipped, or severely decayed, you know how much it can affect both your confidence and comfort. That’s where porcelain crown dental solutions come into play. Porcelain crowns are designed to cover and protect damaged teeth, restoring both functionality and appearance. The dentists in Turlock, CA offer high-quality crowns that blend seamlessly with your natural teeth, making them an ideal solution for long-lasting dental repairs.
Affordable Dental Bridges: Smile Without Gaps
Missing a tooth? You’re not alone. Many people face the dilemma of lost teeth, whether due to injury, decay, or other factors. Thankfully, cheap dental bridges are an affordable and effective solution for filling those gaps. Dental bridges not only restore the look of your smile but also improve your ability to chew and speak properly. In Turlock, dentists work hard to provide high-quality bridges that fit comfortably and look natural—all without the hefty price tag.
Understanding the Benefits of Dental Bridges
Dental bridges work by anchoring to the surrounding teeth or dental implants, creating a stable and durable replacement for missing teeth. They’re designed to look just like your natural teeth, and the best part? You won’t even notice they’re there after a while. They restore both the form and function of your teeth, allowing you to eat, speak, and smile confidently.
Cavity Fillings: Your First Line of Defense Against Decay
If you’ve ever experienced a toothache, chances are it could be due to a cavity. Cavities are small holes in your teeth caused by decay, and if left untreated, they can lead to more serious dental issues. Luckily, dental cavity fillings are a simple and effective treatment that can save your tooth from further damage.
In Turlock, dentists use modern materials like composite resin to fill cavities, ensuring a natural look and feel. These fillings are durable, long-lasting, and blend seamlessly with the rest of your teeth, so no one will know you’ve had a filling.
Types of Dental Fillings You Can Choose From
Not all dental fillings are created equal. In Turlock, you can discuss with your dentist the type of dental tooth fillings that best suit your needs. Common options include:
Composite fillings: These are tooth-colored fillings that offer a natural appearance. They are great for smaller cavities and blend well with the natural color of your teeth.
Amalgam fillings: Known for their strength, amalgam fillings are made from a mixture of metals and are often used for back teeth where chewing forces are stronger.
Porcelain fillings: These are highly durable and stain-resistant. They provide a long-lasting solution, especially for larger cavities.
Your dentist will help you choose the right type of filling based on your specific situation.
Porcelain Crowns vs. Dental Bridges: Which Is Right for You?
Both porcelain crown dental treatments and cheap dental bridges are excellent options for restoring teeth, but how do you know which one is right for you?
Porcelain crowns are typically used when a tooth is damaged but still intact. The crown caps the tooth, restoring its shape and strength.
Dental bridges, on the other hand, are used when you’re missing one or more teeth. They “bridge” the gap between two healthy teeth, anchoring an artificial tooth in place.
Your dentist in Turlock, CA will help guide you in choosing the right treatment based on the condition of your teeth.
Emergency Dental Services in Turlock
Sometimes, dental problems arise unexpectedly. Whether it’s a severe toothache, a broken crown, or a knocked-out tooth, Turlock dentists offer emergency services to provide quick relief. If you’re in pain or facing a dental emergency, don’t wait—call your local dentist right away to get the care you need.
Common Dental Emergencies
Some of the most common dental emergencies include:
Severe toothaches: If you’re experiencing persistent pain, it could be a sign of an infection or other serious problem.
Chipped or broken teeth: Accidents happen, and when they do, it’s important to see a dentist immediately to prevent further damage.
Lost fillings or crowns: Losing a filling or crown can leave your tooth vulnerable to damage and decay. Your dentist can quickly repair or replace the restoration.
In Turlock, emergency dental care is always available when you need it most.
Cosmetic Dentistry Options in Turlock, CA
Beyond general care, dentists in Turlock, CA also offer a wide range of cosmetic procedures to enhance your smile. Whether you’re looking to straighten your teeth, whiten your smile, or fix chipped teeth, there are plenty of options available. Cosmetic dentistry not only improves your appearance but can also boost your confidence and self-esteem.
Teeth Whitening: Brighten Your Smile
One of the most popular cosmetic dental treatments is teeth whitening. Over time, our teeth can become stained from foods, drinks, and other factors. Professional teeth whitening offers a safe and effective way to brighten your smile. In Turlock, dentists use advanced whitening techniques that provide long-lasting results, giving you a dazzling smile you’ll love to show off.
Why Oral Health Is Essential for Overall Wellness
Maintaining good oral health is not just about having a nice smile—it’s about protecting your overall health. Poor dental hygiene has been linked to various health issues, including heart disease, diabetes, and respiratory problems. By staying on top of your dental care with regular visits to your Turlock dentist, you’re not only ensuring a healthy mouth but also supporting your entire body’s well-being.
Finding the Right Dentist in Turlock, CA
Choosing a dentist is a personal decision. It’s essential to find a dental practice that makes you feel comfortable and provides the services you need. Whether you’re looking for a dentist who specializes in porcelain crowns, cheap dental bridges, or general dental cavity fillings, the dentists in Turlock, California are dedicated to offering comprehensive, affordable care.
Consider These Factors When Choosing a Dentist
