RE: Best way to get the most out of fluoride: paste or rinse first?

Yeah, we’re all about low-stress around here. My kid’s dentist is always pushing the “just spit, don’t rinse” thing too, but sometimes my little one i...

RE: How Often Do You Get Fluoride at the Dentist?

Ha, you’re not alone—my kid swears the bubblegum one is “the worst thing ever created.” It’s basically a rite of passage to make that face in the dent...

RE: Would you wait or go straight for an implant after losing a tooth?

We waited with my kiddo’s front tooth (hockey accident, don’t ask), thinking “eh, baby teeth fall out anyway.” But man, the gap made him whistle every...

RE: Choosing between autografts and allografts for better healing?

Totally get that. When my kid needed the graft, I was dreading the idea of two sore spots. The allograft route wasn’t cheap, but honestly, less drama ...

RE: That moment when your braces wire starts stabbing you mid-meal

That’s my kid every time—wax everywhere, half of it ends up stuck to lunch. Tried the gum trick once in a pinch, but it turned into a sticky science e...

RE: Toddler teeth trouble—what would you do?

I hear you on the guilt, but I’ll admit I’m a little more neurotic about it. My kid once went to bed without brushing and I swear I had nightmares abo...

RE: Grinding teeth at night...what if you ignored it?

We went through something similar with our daughter. She had aligners for about a year, and while they did wonders for her smile (seriously, the befor...

RE: Hypothetically, if you tried extracting some herbal stuff at home—like oils or tinctures—and it went kinda wrong (maybe too strong or weird smell or something), how would you fix it?

Haha, been there with the rubbing alcohol smell—definitely not the herbal spa vibes I was hoping for. Airing it out helps a bit, but I've also found a...

RE: Braces on a budget: monthly payments or upfront savings?

Haha, oh man, we've been there! My daughter once wrapped hers in a napkin at a restaurant and left it behind—still cringe thinking about digging throu...

RE: Tricks to get kids excited about brushing teeth

Haha, those tablets were a total disaster in our house—my kiddo ended up looking like he'd eaten a Smurf. 😅 But flavored toothpaste has been a...

RE: Bouncing back after a makeover disaster

Haha, totally agree with you there. When my kiddo had a similar situation after a DIY haircut gone wrong (let's just say scissors and toddlers don't m...

RE: Finally figured out how to get stains out like the pros

Laundry roulette is the perfect way to describe it, lol. I've definitely had those heart-stopping moments pulling clothes out to see if the stain surv...

RE: Eating comfortably when your mouth feels like a construction zone

Totally get that cold foods can feel soothing, but for my son, anything too chilly actually made his teeth ache worse at first. We ended up going room...

RE: Bouncing back after a makeover disaster

Haha, granola bars are definitely undercover troublemakers. My kid chipped a tooth on one last year—talk about unexpected dental drama. Apples seem in...

Haha, lavender strikes again... been there, done that. I once got overly ambitious with eucalyptus oil thinking it'd clear up my kid's stuffy nose. Le...
