Building a Rural Dental Workforce

When I came into this world and met her, I never really saw her smile. Having a focus in rural areas is really important because sometimes they're scared to go to the dentist. I'm not able to restore my grandmother's smile, but with my patients, I treat them like they're my own family members. Just showing them love and care-having that small interaction-can really change their trajectory.

5 Water Flossers That Will Make Your Dentist Actually Give You a Compliment

How do I use a water flosser without spraying water everywhere? Fill the reservoir with water, lean over the sink (you should be looking down, not straight ahead), and keep your lips mostly closed around the tip so water can drip out instead of spraying. Start on the lowest pressure, turn it on only after the tip is in your mouth, and trace along the gum-line-pausing briefly between teeth-then turn it off (or wait until it automatically turns off) before removing it from your mouth.

I Got Invisalign. I Didn't Expect A Total Face Glow-Up.

One night about four months ago, I was doing my evening skin care routine and noticed a change in my face so subtle, it could have been an illusion. My jawline appeared more sculpted, my face more symmetrical than usual. I leaned toward my mirror to get a closer look and scanned the contents of my vanity, wondering which product in my regimen could be credited with this sudden glow-up - and, to my confusion, found none.

Doctors, Nurses, And EMTs Are Sharing Body Facts They Wish Everyone Knew Sooner

You get sick from staying inside, breathing the same germ-filled air. Open your windows, even for five minutes, to circulate the old air out and let in fresh air. Also, if you're taking your child to the doctor, don't wait to treat their fever because you want 'the provider to see the fever.' Your child might wait two hours to be seen, meanwhile their temperature goes up, and they might have a seizure. If you say they've been having fevers, we believe you.
