I get what you’re saying, but sometimes I wonder if it’s that clear-cut. When my kid needed a filling, the dentist said sealants were “optional”—but t...
Is it just me or do the stains somehow multiply if there are kids in the house? My little one once managed to knock over a glass of grape juice (so cl...
That cracked me up because my kid’s managed to snap them just by looking at them, I swear. We keep a stash in the medicine cabinet and it still feels ...
My kid gets nitrous for fillings and our insurance covers most of it, but only because she’s under 12. For adults, I’ve never seen coverage—seems like...

We got one of those “special” mouthwashes for my kid after his extractions. Honestly, he hated the taste and it didn’t seem to do anything more than s...
