Yep, my bottom retainer had broken and one of my teeth was crooked and stuck out maybe 1-2 mm. I was scared that my years of braces and wearing a retainer had gone to waste. But the good ol orthodontist just pushes the tooth back into place with his finger and glues it back onto the retainer, problem solved

My dentist has a laser for small cavities, but he didn't use it on me. It requires no novacaine.

the novocaine that dentists inject into your gums (altho a lot use Lidocaine) is really procaine HCL, one substance known to lower cortisols and extend human life. So this is one of the few medical proceedures I accept readily.

Your poll is confusing. Are we supposed to guess how many dentists there are on the board? Who knows the answer?

dont forget to have the hard plastic coating applied to prevent tooth decay

no cavities
