Awareness offers some protection, but it's unfortunate that we are now compelled to think about many more things that we never before even had to consider. If we ignore them, we do so at our peril.
For example, in the 1830s, girls commonly reached…
One more thing to worry about. There are more causes of cancer and other illnesses than we'll ever be able to keep track of. Thanks for sharing this and raising our awareness (and fears).
Wonderful; I'm glad someone is paying attention. Of course you are absolutely correct. I think the mouthwash manufacturers should include a couple of paragraphs of fine print on the label that explains the limitations of their product. You know the…
So do all the ADA-accepted mouthwashes kill only the pathogenic bacteria and spare the beneficial varieties? If so, how do they differentiate among them? Have any studies been done on that?
And, if 99.9 percent of germs are killed (assuming that's n…

Bisphenol A (BPA) turns up yet again
Many in the dental field are aware of the concern over Bisphenol A, or BPA, which is a component of certain resin-based dental materials. The concern is that it is among a group of chemicals that act like estrogen in the body, called pseudo-estrogens. Further, BPA is a carcinogen. (Disclaimer: The carcinogenic properties of any substance depends on the dose and frequency of exposure.)
If the inclusion of BPA in dental materials weren't enough to raise (a little) alarm,

DentalVibe anesthesia injection system
Here is the latest integrated anesthesia injection system that uses vibration during injections. It might be a game changer for improved comfort -- for both patient and dentist. It was featured on a recent TV news broadcast. http://dentalvibe.com/
Oh, and Steve Martin is featured, too.

- Absolutely not..we have to give them there do and nothing more. To reach the bottom of a nine millimeter pocket you have to put it in a syring and there are better medicaments for that. It will never take the place of flossing as biolfilm very successfully sticks to rough surfaces and always has to be physically removed from that surface. It is an adjunct pure and simple.

Ted, We have to lighten up on Listerine! I have just finished at UOR and and I have learned it does have the ability to penetrate the biofilm somewhat so I am keeping my mind open.

- Thank you so much, Ted. It's exactly what I was looking after. Also I am looking for software to book, chart, using a laptop....if you know IT companies offer dent software. More Thanks in advance.

- Hi Ted,
Right back atcha! I'm really enjoying the writers' group dialogue. Maybe we can get the scribes together in person for dinner & cocktails at the ADA. I'm sure Mark has a slush fund for this sort of thing ;-)

- Wow, that sounds fantastic. I'm sure we'd love to go flying with you guys -- anywhere there's no shooting going on! I've been up flying with a friend several times in a very small rental, but nothing like your plane. I think the last time Joyce went flying in a small plane was nearly 33 years ago on our honeymoon. As I recall, she enjoyed it.
My friend Chet always tells me to be on the lookout for emergency landing areas. It tends to detract from the pleasure, but he's a painfully practical guy, and a disaster recovery specialist...guess that explains it...

Great to hear from you. My husband & I flew our Mooney airplane to Harbor Bay over the Labor Day weekend - so there was no swimming but the weather, water and the lobsters right on the beach were awesome. I was so surprised at the smell of water and how clean it was. Next time we go, we will fly down to get you and your honey, if you have never flown in a single engine airplane it will be an experience to remember!!!

Cathy Seckman said… - The Blue Weenie has a belt drive Rotax engine, believe it or not. My R100RT was Old Paint, and the R1100RT was Swoopy. We also have a 1979 "Indian" moped named Older Paint.
That ST ought to be pretty similar in style to the Weenie, sort of half sport bike and half touring bike. I thought I wouldn't like the forward position, but it doesn't give me a problem. I rode it from Ohio to Iowa and back last September, and did fine. I put bar backs on it, and got the optional lower seat - I'm inseam challenged.
I'll have to take a picture of the Weenie as soon as it stops raining. I haven't been out yet this year - too busy running around like a chicken.
