 Hi everybody. It looks like I'm live. It's been a while since I've come on a YouTube live so I figured it is time to do one. Sorry that sometimes it takes a while but it's nice that I'm here. I'm just gonna wait a moment or so for people to log in. I'm gonna check my email to make sure there's no questions. Actually sorry to check for questions because sometimes I get some really good questions throughout the months, the weeks. I just realized my thumbnail on YouTube is horrible. Oh now it's showing me live again. So you guys as always ask me any dental related questions that you might have whether it be again dental related questions or if you have any questions about any courses anything please let me know. I love all of your comments, likes all of that please keep them coming. If I don't respond to them right away I apologize it's just because things can get so busy. As you guys know if you've been following me for a while I do a little bit of everything. There's always courses, teachings, patience to see but I do really enjoy your likes and comments so thank you guys very much. What I'm gonna do is I'm going to go through I'm just checking my notes here. I'm gonna go through some of the common questions that people have been asking. I have some dental questions here. I have some course questions. Can I type in the chat box? I could have sworn I could before. I was gonna type in the chat box to give you guys my website but I suppose I can add that in to the description anyway if you guys are wondering what the website is but I can add that into the description depending on if you're new to this channel or not. I do like to say if you guys don't mind clicking like and clicking subscribe. I love that that does really help me out. I do appreciate it. YouTube these days the more likes you have the more subscribers the better so that's really really nice it just helps to bump things up and that kind of helps me as well so that would be fantastic. So talking about dental questions you guys I have it on a couple I have it on my notes pieces of paper so some common dental questions lately I've been getting a question of how do you help with cold sensitive teeth so how do I feel about cold sensitive teeth if you've been to the dental office before and you've told them that you have cold sensitive teeth and they just basically say to switch toothpaste there are different things that you can do switching toothpaste is definitely the best thing to do that's the first thing to do so I'm not mentioning any companies that are paying me to talk about this none of that I don't believe in that I'm just talking about the companies that I personally use myself and ones that I recommend to my patients so you guys might see on my YouTube channel often oral science that's one word oral science I use that company for many things but if you want to save some money I suggest trying a sensitine toothpaste first you can buy that anywhere you can buy it on Amazon all kinds of places so a sensitine toothpaste I like the original one or the sensitine rapid relief that one's fantastic so you should definitely use that and the key is to use it every day twice a day consistently if you're using different toothpaste it's not going to work nearly as well so please keep that in mind so if you're using a sensitine toothpaste and then you're using a crest toothpaste or Colgate it doesn't matter what else it's not going to work because your sensitine toothpaste that you're using it's working it's creating a coating and then the next time you go to brush with a different toothpaste you're taking that protective coating off so you need to be using sensitine consistently or it doesn't have to be sensitine any sensitive type of toothpaste just I personally like sensitine because it has two key ingredients in it it has potassium nitrate well that's kind of the main one to really help with sensitive teeth okay potassium nitrate if you're not sure what type of toothpaste you have check on the back I don't have any toothpaste here but check on the back and look for the ingredient potassium nitrate that is what helps to coat the teeth help the tubules against some cold sensitivity but use it consistently and did you guys know you should not be using water on your toothbrush so before you put the toothpaste on don't use water on your toothbrush and afterwards don't rinse your teeth do not rinse your mouth after you apply the toothpaste because if you do those therapeutic effects of the toothpaste aren't going to work as well because you're rinsing it off before you put the toothpaste on the brush if you rinse with water and then put your toothpaste on well those therapeutic ingredients of the toothpaste same thing it's not working its magic as well because it's diluted with the water did you guys know that I know crazy so try toothpaste first I do apply a professional grade desensitizer on my client's teeth with a micro brush that I can do too I apply that over the areas of thinning enamel because that's the more common cause for cold sensitivity your dental office should have that as well ask them for it it is expensive so I want to say be prepared to pay for it if you do ask for it I don't always charge my patients it kind of depends if it's not covered by insurance I feel bad kind of saying to my patient okay it's not covered it's going to be $45 most people can afford that or necessarily want to but if you're that cold sensitive $45 to get you out of pain is a small price to pay right but just keep that in mind but using a toothpaste at home can really help so that was a common question lately another common question was to use a water pick or the floss and by the way if anybody has questions please feel free to type something I am more than happy to answer any questions oh now I see the chat box I'm just going to type in the chat box too so you guys can see kind of where to type if it's not so obvious oh yes so another common question was water picks or using a floss I really like water picks and I find those of you I don't want to say those of you who are using floss might not be doing it properly anyway but most people don't use the floss every day that is ideal to use floss every day but if you're not I tell patients use the water pick the water pick is easier to use it's quicker use the water pick every day and that's just as good as using dental floss it does depend on what dental professional you talk to so some might say Andrea is wrong it's not the same as dental floss but from what I've seen in my patients those that have told me six months ago um Andrea I'm not going to floss too bad and I kind of say to them well the gums are really bleeding you have to do something I suggest a water pick they purchase one and their gums are so much healthier because of it so if that's not better than floss I don't know what other proof to give you and it's so much easier I personally use the water pick every day even after every meal if I'm home I use the water pick your teeth your gums everything will be so much healthier because of it if your gums bleed while you first start to use the water pick it's just because your gums aren't used to it and your gums need to heal up keep using it though because if you keep on using it things will get better and better healthier mouth healthier gums you will feel better you'll be healthier health starts in the mouth you guys if your mouth isn't healthy how can anything else be healthy because we're constantly eating so it's coming through the mouth if the mouth isn't healthy that bacteria is now in our food that's traveling in our system you get the idea like not to sound yucky but it's true your overall health your oral health so mouth health plays a big role on your overall health does that make sense you guys so if you're thinking ah should I get the water pick should I not it's good for everybody it can't hurt anybody um if you guys want a link I like a water pick um personally from amazon they're a great price they last I like a cordless water pick because I don't like a lot of like heavy things on my counter so I like a cordless one that I can either just put in the shower under the sink um but I do use mine often enough that I should just probably keep it on the counter anyway because I might keep having to reach for it but get that water pick you won't be disappointed you won't be disappointed you will love me for it um jasmine hello so you are a new dental assistant that's exciting I was a dental assistant too and I loved it I truly loved it I became a hygienist just because I did always want to clean teeth um I wanted to teach I wanted to have my own business um and as a dental assistant um you can't really do as much of that so that's why I became a hygienist but I loved dental assisting dental assisting is the backbone of the office without dental assistance the office will have nothing just so you know so good for you um and Tara um Tara Tara sorry if I pronounced your name wrong um that's exciting so you're in your second year of dental hygiene school I remember dental hygiene school um you might have seen some youtube videos of mine but I cried every day because dental hygiene school was so difficult but it's worth it it's expensive it's worth it you will you know hang in there it's not forever um okay so I see a question here from Kerry oh um Kerry yes it is normal to feel some discomfort but it shouldn't be getting worse it should be getting better now how often do you clean the forcation area um with your proxy brush and it depends on the proxy brush you're using too if it's too large that can make it more uncomfortable it does have to be not too small but not too large it needs to fit into that space but be a bit bigger so it's cleaning around it if the proxy brush is too small it's just kind of going into that space and not doing much and hurting you at the same time so it does have to be a good size take your proxy brush to your next um dental hygiene appointment and have them make sure that it's the right size for you um but yes it's normal to be uncomfortable because what a forcation is is your how do I say this your forcation of your tooth so your the roots of the tooth I wish I had a tooth model here um the roots of the tooth like form a triangle your forcation means there is a space here sorry if this looks funny but hey it is what it is your forcation means you have a space here so your proxy brush needs to go in that space and it's uncomfortable because that space should be covered by your gum tissue since it's not it just means it's more exposed they should also be applying a desensitizer on that area at every dental visit that will help to heal up that forcation so it's not as sensitive Carrie I do suggest using a sensitine toothpaste at the very least from now on as well um I know you mentioned you just have one forcation but I would use it on all of the teeth and hopefully that will start to make things feel better having that said you guys I do have to legally say um take my advice with a grain of salt since I can't see you guys in person I don't know what your situation is okay so don't you know still talk to your dentists talk to your dental hygienists with any advice that I'm going to give you just because I haven't seen you in person okay so just thought I'd mention that um you know what um Narissa I was horrible at science I failed every science class possible um in high school I was horrible at math science English you name it but when I got to dental hygiene college I loved learning everything so I got very high marks and things were fantastic but obviously in high school you have to have good marks in order to get into college but science was definitely not my strong suit I became more interested in it when I became um when I was in dental hygiene college so if you were wondering about that uh you know what um Izzy I was very slow in clinic as well I was a very smart student like textbook tests exams but when it came to clinic it took me a lot longer to learn all of the clinical skills there were other students who were way ahead of me they were so much better I felt I I always did such a bad job I just wasn't confident in my clinical abilities it takes time because there is a lot you have to do you have to do a lot of pointless things you know paperwork pre-cleaning all of that stuff that you don't have to do in the dental office but you have to do it for your instructors so hang in there it will get better I promise you when you're in your last semester you'll be looking back to your first semester thinking man why did I have such a hard time with that that was so easy so don't worry hang in there I was the exact same way I promise I'm not just saying that I didn't do very well um in my clinic the first couple times um now uh Kamali sorry if I pronounced your name wrong um it really depends on how often you should see a dentist I tell people a rule of thumb is every six months um but some people I say it should be every three months every four months it depends on your oral health some people get plaque and tartar deposits staying a lot quicker a lot easier so then you should be seen every three months if you notice that the gums are really bleeding then it should be every three months um and that's for your dental hygienist I should specify so for a dentist that's different your dental hygienist who cleans the teeth at least every six months but it could be more frequently than that so let's just say it's been a couple years since you've seen your your dental hygienist you should go soon because you probably need a good teeth cleaning you'll need a dental exam all of that fun stuff so I hope that helps oh great um in Quebec um dental hygienists can now start their own business I don't know if you knew that as of september of last year a dental hygienist can now start their own business which is awesome um here we were able to start our own businesses since 2007 um it's not in every state um so really check to see but in Quebec you are now able to do that but of course you have to graduate all of that but that's very exciting um Adele a good question so for frications you can get them covered by the gums but that involves gum surgery um it's called a gingivecta gingivoplasty there's there's a couple different types but to get it covered by the gums again it is an invasive surgery where they literally take like gum from the roof of your mouth usually and cover it up wherever the frication is um but it could get lower again so but it doesn't come back naturally um good question Narissa so definitely check out my youtube channel like even if you type in dental hygiene school or dental hygiene college clinic I talk a lot about my struggles in dental hygiene school the ups and downs there were a lot more downs than ups um you know what when I was feeling down or discouraged I just I did kind of one of two things I I either studied harder so that I would get a really good mark on the next test that would make me feel better I would ask my instructors for help but quite often I found they weren't very helpful or they didn't really have time for me because everybody else in clinic was doing so well and I was having such a hard time sometimes you just have to take a day off not a day off from school but you know just take some time and do something fun take a break that evening do what you like to do watch some tv watch a movie read a book whatever um because there's not much you can do um because you have to get through it right because it's either that or you quit and you don't want to quit so hang in there it will get better I felt discouraged probably most of my dental hygiene college days okay I did I did I'm being honest I don't know if that's going to help you but I'm being honest so what you're feeling is normal and that's okay not a lot of people talk about the negativity right but you have to but it's totally worth it hang in there um I know you can do it because you got into dental hygiene college right for for a reason so just hang in there it will be worth it you'll be looking back at this day a year from now two years and um two years from now and you'll be glad you stuck with it so I hope that helps um oh I'm Tony so you're returning to the dental hygiene profession or or like the dental assisting the dental profession how do you address that in your resume that's a great question you know what um definitely have a cover letter um I don't know if cover letters are a thing where you are um definitely have a cover letter and just simply you know I would say something like um you'll notice like in your cover letter I would say something like you'll notice from my resume it's been five ten years whatever three years five years ten years since I was in the dental profession um I am back now I am willing to work hard I'm a quick learner and I'm excited to get started something like that um turn a negative into a positive and there's nothing negative about that you will be more refreshed than anybody um then than anybody coming back um someone who's been in the profession for 30 years probably exhausted and doesn't want to work anymore you will be more refreshed than anybody and when you get to that interview point when they're interviewing you in person and they will probably ask you like oh I noticed on your resume you haven't been working for five years can you talk about that say yep I took some time off to be with family whatever you don't have to give them the exact reason or any personal reasons but I would say yeah I took some time off to be with family um I am back now I am more refreshed than anybody um somebody who's been working for 30 years is probably tired doesn't want to work anymore but I'm the opposite I can't wait to work that's exactly what I would say so make notes and that's exactly what I would do so I hope that helps Tony um Adele you're welcome I do hope that that helped um is there any way for a dentist to work online and nominously so do you mean um like asking questions or something so if you could be a little more clear about that that would be great and I can definitely help you ah Nora x-rays with x-rays practice makes perfect figure out what you're having a hard time with and get help another thing that I do say is okay sure practice makes perfect but if you keep doing the same things wrong that's not your fault you need help for somebody to show you a way to do it right um when I used to work in a dental office I would quite often help the new dental assistants new hygienists anybody with the x-rays but I would have them take the x-ray first and then I would see what they were doing wrong and then I would have them take it again but then I'd be in the room with them to help them and to show them there's nothing worse than looking at an x-ray that's not right and then saying well it's not right you have to do it again you're not going to know what you have to do differently so that never made sense to me so just get somebody to help you because it could just be your angle is just a little bit off your patient's head is probably too high or too low or their teeth you know so just have somebody show you like I wish I could show you um x-rays practice makes perfect but it's better to have somebody show you so nor I hope that helps x-rays took me a while too I don't know if you have the RIN kit where you are I love the RIN kit because you basically put the sensor the x-ray film in the holder you line it up set it up it does the hard work for you you just have to point with the tube head and you're pretty much good to go you can still make mistakes but it's not going to be a huge mistake like using the bisecting technique where you have to have it in perfectly or it's just not going to work and x-rays are important um you don't want to take the same x-ray five times right like you want to take it right the first time or the second time but even me I've been in this profession for 16 years and I would still make a mistake sometimes and have to do it again sometimes I'd say wow that looks even worse than the first time I have to take it a third time so it does happen but practice makes perfect I still remember the first time I was taking x-rays I had horrible x-rays but I had somebody show me because in school I find like you have to work so fast like you have to you know you don't really have that much time to learn so good luck I hope that helps what other questions do you guys have I'm just pulling up my notes again um oh yes somebody was asking is it normal to be sore after a teeth cleaning so that really depends I prefer not to make my patients sore but for example if it's been 10 years since somebody has had their teeth cleaned it's going to be uncomfortable for them for you to clean all of that stuff off I compare it to your oven if your oven hasn't been cleaned in 10 years imagine cleaning it now you're going to be like in the oven um scrubbing like crazy it's not going to come off in like two minutes you're going to have to really scrub all that stuff off it's kind of like your teeth if it's been 10 years there's going to be a lot underneath the gums we have to scrub it off but there's two different ways to do it what I like to do is I like to take my time so I don't have to like scrub too much you know scrub but scrape too much and I don't do the full cleaning in one day I give them time for the gums to heal up after the first time I do it again some more the next time so they might be uncomfortable but not in so much pain because I did the full cleaning in one appointment and they're like oh my god you like murdered me so it really depends that way so is it normal to be sensitive or sore after a teeth cleaning it could be but not every time and if you go every six months it's definitely not normal to be sensitive or like three months four months nine months but again you guys talk to your dental hygienist um since I can't see you guys in person I don't know what your oral health is if I saw you I might say you oh for you it is normal to be sensitive because look at all of that plaque stain you always have you know so I hope that makes sense so that was a common question that I wanted to address oh good question um which is a more challenging component oh that's tricky so I would say both are equally challenging um finding your fit in like do do you mean finding like the right dental office for you where like you just mesh well with the staff like everybody's happy um or would you say or do you mean something else and then the next one evaluating your skills to take on more responsibility in your workplace so that's really up to you I feel a dental assistant can always be moving up and up and up because you could eventually be you know working on treatment plans estimates you could be helping out the dentist more um you pretty much start off depending on the office as like the dental assistant receptionist maybe where you're you know doing some chair side dental assisting and then you're like answering phones signing out patients or you could be just seeing patients chair side but then you might get some more responsibilities that could include um ordering for the office you submit treatment plans to insurance companies you call for um recalls you're in the lab doing lab work it it really depends on kind of that office so that's really not hard because I feel any office would want to utilize you as much as possible it's more so the person who might say no I'm happy just being a chair side dental assistant I don't want to do anything else or you know no I don't really want to work more so I don't want to work in the lab or increase my responsibilities I feel it's more the person if they're ambitious or not any any office should really want to utilize their person their dental assistant as much as possible but it is challenging to find the right office for you and I even have a youtube video on this too if you're currently in a dental office where you're not happy you're stressed every day you don't feel appreciated get out because there's an office for you that will love you I've been in offices before where I kind of look around thinking like what is this place they're just rude I never get a lunch I stay behind because that's just my personality if a patient needs me I'm going to be there but I don't get a thank you they're not appreciative like I just left so fast you know like I don't stay there but then I've had offices before that are so happy that I'm there they're so appreciative me and the staff just just get along so well so there are definitely the right offices for you and not the right offices for you it doesn't mean you're a bad person or not a good person it's just some personalities just don't mesh well like it's it's interesting how things work isn't it but unfortunately you probably have to go through the not so fun times and not so good offices before you really find an office that's right for you but if you're stressed every day not wanting to go to work look for another job that you will find an office for you it might be the second office it might be the third office it might be the eighth office you never know I have definitely worked in good offices I've worked in not so good offices but I'm much happier working for myself now I can't imagine working for a dental office or working for a dentist again just because it's nice to run my own schedule I might only staff obviously I much prefer having my own practice so for those of you who don't know I'm a dental hygienist I'm a restorative dental hygienist so that's considered a dental hygiene specialist so I hold a specialty certificate so I can do like I can place crowns bridges I can do fillings I can place braces if I wanted to I just can't prep the teeth with the high speed handpiece so I have to work alongside a dentist to do those things but I can place temporary fillings without a dentist so that's what I do in my own practice I've had my own practice now my own dental hygiene practice for about two years I go to people's homes so I'm primarily a mobile dental hygienist where I go into their homes and they love it because they're more comfortable they're not as anxious so I love it plus I do have an office here in my own home for those who don't mind coming to me but I would say 90% of the time I'm going to them which is makes me a specialty right so I love that it's a lot of work but I love it and I know unfortunately you can't do it everywhere I wish you could because it's such a great service yes definitely that would be a goal for sure um oh yeah like even if you've been out of practice for 30 years and if it's something you want to do do it um I don't know about you but um we are always looking for dental professionals like we need in my area more dental assistants more dental hygienists and if I came across somebody who had been out of practice for 30 years I would actually like that more because that tells me you're excited to work you want to work um I don't know that's just how I would see it but if it's something you want to do do it um I'm curious though like why do you want to come back now after a long time I'm just curious and do you guys have any other questions I know it's been a while since I've done this YouTube live sorry you guys but I I had some extra time so I kind of wanted to do that um because I want um it's nice to be able to answer these because you all leave me such amazing um comments that I don't always have a chance to answer them so this is just nice I'm just checking again checking again let's see uh where are my notes another oh yeah okay so another question was can you start a dental hygiene practice where you live look that up because it's different everywhere here in Ontario yes you can I can only speak for Ontario look it up I suggest contacting either your um contact your dental hygiene association they will tell you you're like local dental hygiene association they will tell you if you can start your own dental hygiene practice or not um for dental assisting you cannot start your own practice because you can't do anything like that like as a dental assistant but you can typically start your own practice teeth whitening so you can have your own mobile teeth whitening um business in most cases um if you guys have any questions about that definitely check out my website because I do do a teeth whitening course um if that's something that you want to do and you feel like it would work well in your area um told me yeah yeah I think you can totally do it like you should start applying like I would I think dental professionals are needed everywhere so I would definitely start applying if I were you any other questions you guys I'll definitely try to do this more often it's definitely been a while I don't even know when my last youtube live was but I definitely want to do it more often because I like this this is fun um oh yes notes um do I recommend a manual toothbrush or an electric toothbrush that actually depends on the person too 90 of the time I suggest an electric toothbrush because electric toothbrushes just do the work for you so you know it just usually does a better job but I personally like to use a mix between the electric toothbrush and the manual toothbrush because the manual toothbrush that I use is just such a good toothbrush that sometimes I feel like it's cleaning the teeth better because the bristles are soft but they're like closer together I really really like them they're cura prox brushes I'm not sure if you guys have heard of them I give them to all my patients thereby um oral science dot ca or oral science dot com um I put that in the chat window I don't sell for oral science I'm not making money talking about it it's just what I personally like um anytime I've given my patients a toothbrush they love those toothbrushes so it's a hard question to answer do I prefer manual or an electric it really does depend um but um so yeah sorry it does depend like I'd have to look inside your mouth to really tell you if you have thinning enamel everywhere if you're cold sensitive I might even suggest a manual toothbrush because if you're pushing too hard you can do more damage with an electric brush because the electric brush does all of the work for you so if you're pushing too hard you can actually do more damage with the electric brush whereas a manual brush it's harder to push too hard and you're not doing as much damage if you're not doing it properly if that makes sense ah that's a good question I'm pro fluoride all the way so I do feel that fluoride should be in the water if you know if it is you don't have much choice about that but it's because your teeth like as a child as a baby a toddler your teeth are still forming they are still developing you have tooth buds your adult tooth buds underneath that are still forming and still developing so having fluoride in the water in my opinion we all have different opinions on this as well it just helps to bring in the extra minerals that are needed to have strong teeth fluoride in the water does not necessarily help adults that have teeth already formed because fluoride in the water is more of a systemic fluoride so it's helping teeth that are not that are still developing that are still um developing topical fluoride like if you're in a dental office um topical fluoride um like the fluoride varnish the fluoride mouth washes um fluoride toothpaste that works on teeth that are already in the mouth and that you might be getting cavities or thinning enamel or a chance of cavities that helps those teeth um make them stronger and helps to remineralize those areas so the enamel doesn't get thinner doesn't get worse and hopefully doesn't form a cavity um does that make sense there's a lot of different opinions on this I am pro fluoride all the way most of my patients get a topical fluoride application because it really helps I apply fluoride to my own teeth because it's just I call it it's like vitamins for your teeth you know you want to be healthy inside your body you might take vitamins you you might eat certain things because you want to um be healthier well fluoride for your teeth is like vitamins if you're not putting fluoride on your teeth in my opinion um you're not getting the extra vitamins that are needed to have strong healthy teeth so I hope that helps there's many places that don't have fluoride in the water and I notice a difference I see kids where they get more cavities um kids have sore teeth um for adults too they get more cavities um because as kids their teeth didn't quite develop properly fully I mean they develop properly sorry that's not the right word but they're not as strong so I do notice a difference or even when somebody's not using a fluoride toothpaste I notice a difference those natural toothpaste out there or just toothpaste with no fluoride um their teeth aren't as strong and it's easier for them to get cavities so who would want that not me um a a cavity is like a bacterial infection it's eating away at your teeth don't get cavities and if you have one fix them right away okay that's kind of the best advice I can give you guys any other questions I'm just checking my note any other questions you guys these are great questions uh yes that's a great question I definitely prefer the fluoride varnish because research has shown that the varnish varnish has the greatest uptake for the enamel um the mouthwash for example like the fluoride mouthwash research has shown it's in the mouth and then it's basically out of the mouth in like half an hour so it doesn't really the enamel doesn't absorb it as well as the varnish because the varnish you like paint it on with the micro brushes um the fluoride foam I don't know if you guys still use that but when I was a kid that's what they would use for me so they would put fluoride foam like in those trays where we'd have to bite into these trays it was so yucky um they say that doesn't have a very good uptake of the fluoride either so they definitely prefer um the fluoride varnish that's what I use because research has shown it's the best it protects the teeth the best so how I see it is why would I use anything else and it's very easy to apply patients like it because I'm painting it on for them they don't have to rinse with some yucky tasting mouthwash they don't have to have like foam but every area is different so where you guys live you might use something else I don't know but here we use fluoride my pleasure I am that is neat to hear that you're new to the channel hopefully you found this informative um if you liked it hopefully there's more videos for you that you'll find interesting because I do upload videos constantly like at least weekly um probably even more than that like just basically any dental type topics dental hygiene school dental assisting school like patients general dental questions um I've been in the profession for 16 years so I definitely kind of talk a little bit about everything don't I guys for the for those of you who have been to my channel before you'll probably say the same thing I kind of talk a little bit about everything that's tricky so as a dental hygiene student is it possible to practice outside of school to improve your skills unfortunately not because as a dental hygiene student you need a professor a teacher monitoring what you're doing I know I kind of tried that too like and even if you're trying to practice like on a type of dawn so like not a real person you don't know if you're doing it properly so it's kind of hard to practice when you don't know if you're doing it right does that make sense um I remember wanting to do the same thing when I was in dental hygiene school looking trying to figure out well can I practice do something to improve my skills but you really can't because you need that professor to kind of tell you like oh you need to angle it this way you're not doing it quite right or how about you you angle it the other way um so yeah I don't know if that helps very much but that's kind of you know um Tony I don't do consults anymore I used to for creating the resumes um but um you can always send it to me and I can have a look at it afterwards if you want and I can kind of like give you help on um like how to spruce it up if you like um I can leave my email for you here it's teeth rrdh at gmail.com I can leave my email for you here and send it to me when you're done with it and then I can kind of help you with it if you want that's a good question for arrest in I haven't personally used it because I prefer to treat the gums and everything by not placing something in there like I try to do a really good cleaning I prescribe mouth washes um I do like a deep cleaning with the oral irrigation but I've never personally tried arrest in um but dentists do swear by it so I do feel like it's a very good product for sure definitely look into it if that helps I just had an email from somebody saying they couldn't join my youtube live they should be able to good for you because a dental assisting like program isn't easy either so good for you that's fantastic good there are definitely lots of videos for dental assistings um sorry dental
