Brushes, pastes and other herbs


Well,
Today I'm happy, I'm in the middle of treatment! Yes yes yes! Today we finished out the calculations of the three tops! Just missing the entire bottom! is it half way, is missing, but I think is a good enough reason to be happy.
Well, as I'm in the middle of the treatment of periodontitis, I approached another dentist, Gustabo, who will treat me the root canals and cavities. But as we say in Buenos Aires "But But" because it does not begin here. Now we are in August 2009, and in fact the whole story began in December last year. If, in December. And these things do not happen on a Wednesday morning, when you can go to a call, or buy something at the pharmacy. It happened to me in the middle of a conference I attended, with over 400 km of Buenos Aires, in the city of Mar del Plata. It's that I was eating a very rich octopus broke when I felt something in my mouth. I had an arrangement that had broken on a wheel, but did not hurt anything. I thought that when I returned to my city, I would go to the dentist and fix what was broken, and problem solved. but "but but". At that time was without social, just the would in January. I spent the holidays then taking ibuprofen x 400 milligrams, because the issue was beginning to annoy and hurt. January came, and there already had social work. But "but but". I had to do a tremendous membership processed, I ended up delaying a month.
In between, and in summer, all weekend trying to go to Mar del Plata, where my family has a house near the sea, but .. (Yes, but but) all weekend I kept taking amoxicillin, an antibiotic, and ibuprofen for pain. It was as if the fucking wheel knew I wanted to go for a walk and say "mmm .... I do not want you!"
Anyway, so I spend my summer. Above, as I had just come into my job, I had no vacation!
Finally, in February I finally met a bloody call dentist.
My health and oral hygiene was not good, I assume, in all honesty and sincerity, but we are all human beings, and as such deserve to be treated with dignity. This dentistry did not treat me well at all, and I created a very very very ugly, that I will tell.
It is then that this "Boni", sent me to get an x-ray series. There caries, no big deal, but in that tooth or root canal had to do.
Then I took the radiograph, and I can say the ordeal began in 2009.
There she, very quiet, just give me a deal worth up almost insults me, I actually denigrate their treatment, and he said he had to take like 5 root canals, each was too expensive and would not be able to afford it, and most of all I explained that it was a true candidate for dental implants.
Let's see if maybe that is my situation at that time did not know what had periodontitis, in fact "Boni" never realized, only interested in realizarme these treatments, and to buy the products she recommended and pharmacy she recommended.
Finally, after 40 minutes of absolute denigration, I left that office. was a summer day, sunny, but I began to feel something that deepened after that then returned with full fury. I left the office and started having a panic attack. I did not know was that, in fact, was a very smooth and did not recognize him as such, in fact, in March (about 20 days after this episode) but that March day finish all day in bed with a fever, pressure high, because he had suffered two hours of panic attack.
In order.
Anyone who has suffered a panic attack (AP) knows what he is about. When one suffers, feels that the world ends, and we die.
Then I began psychological treatment aid, with which I have overcome the problem. Obviously that did not happen just by all this, but let's say that the situation was the straw that broke the camel.
I had two months from March to May to address it, because at the end of May began periodontitis, or rather, was detected.
Well, then began to fix cavities and treatments myself.
I thought, since almost three years ago that I have no vacation, go to Mexico. in fact, with the money you save could go quietly leave, but everything is going to go into this.
We will continue to count.
If this is the first time you see the blog, I would like you to comment something, if you got periodontitis, know that you are not alone.
Cheers, Sebas

Reaching a goal,



A few days ago I had one of the last sesioens cleaning or rather, of

treatment of periodontitis. One thing I learned is that there are several
forms and types of treatment, depending on caso.Por example, the two
I know people with periodontitis (two women 40 years average)
had a somewhat superficial cleaning compared to my linmpieza.En the
For them, we applied a kind of a rubber covered around by their
teeth, wiping dientes.En tartar from my case (25 years), cleaning
was profound. Not only is it aplcia around (at the very end), but that
also used the classic instruments scraping tooth root.




in latter trade session, we played the hardest part. Not only because it is the most
affected by the disease, but
that for the particular zone, not too much anesthesia can be used. As was the
affected, and could not use `
anesthesia, the session was extended Nmás than thought. Overall, among the
office, and in 50 minutes I'm out. Never hurts, and I would even say that the
good time. This time it hurt, and lasted more than two hours.

In short, it was no picnic, but now it's nice to know that the worst is over.



to the
same time, as is the most affected area, is one of the most print
me when brushing. Usually with no floss
problems, but I have to lower the brush pretty, and it's awesome.

Diagnosis ....


Well, it all started a while before my birthday.
Met 25, and a few weeks before had begun to notice a spot above the tooth that is between the canine and the palette. There was a cavity, the gum was .... I did not know it was, and it scared me, but let it go.
It was my birthday, and organize a party. Not a good time. I wanted to laugh in any photo, in fact did not want me teeth in the mirror.
The day after the party, I went to the emergency dentist. I attended a very good dentist, reassure me much, I mean the problem superficially, and I took a few mouthfuls (10 vol peroxide mixed with 2/3 parts of water, and then Plac-Out-digluconate-) and I suggested to visit my dentist.
There was the first problem unrelated to the disease, but that directly affect: the health service of social work in Argentina. My social work ... leaves much to be desired, the turn closest they gave me a month and a half (when the dentist had said it was an emergency). The only alternative was to assist me with another dentist, a bloodthirsty interested only in doing root canals that I had attended before.
Finally, turn and went pedi stunned.
I had researched the internet before everything I could get to be happening, and the only thing I periodontitis remained was "receding gums, tooth loss."
I wanted to die.
He wanted to be in the shoes of anyone else who saw in the street.
I have 25 years, not entiendia as rumored to bring the disease he had discovered that afternoon. In order.
I take the subway, and headed back with tears in her eyes.
I called some friends who did not understand very well what it was, and tried to help in the best way, but have not been successful.
I got home and collapsed.
I was sure he would lose in weeks entire dentition (was wrong!)
My family helped me and got me an appointment with other dentistry, which was two days later.
Arrives to the consultation was the suburban office-live in the suburbs, without many appliances, where she attended alone.
I arrived, he treated me very well and I calm down.
Just look at my mouth, I touch my teeth with your fingers looking mobility, and released their verdict: "Sebastian, you do not have periodontitis. What you have, is an inflammation-gingivitis-aggravated by the crowding of your teeth, but do not worry that one limpiza solved calculus ".
I left with a huge sonrrisa, and a serial radiography order - in which an X-ray is taken of each tooth in the mouth.
That was a Thursday, and Friday rest. By the way, I work downtown and my job is very demanding, not much time left for me, but hey, rest on Friday with the hope that dentistry that was wrong, that everything would be cleaned more than good.
Activity week, and Wednesday, 8 days after the first verdict, find the tiebreaker.
I went to the guard at the Faculty of Dentistry at the University of Buenos Aires, where I attended immediately. Just wanted to guard this dentistry, UBA told me that I had nothing, and go quiet. Not so.
After a very good treatment referred me to a periodontist to see me, because I was 80% sure that it was the disease. Two days later I went to the guard.
I met a Colombian dentist, I "spike" gum .... It did not hurt much, almost nothing, was more of a nuisance than it felt. And he confirmed the verdict, had periodontitis.
There if I wanted to throw down a train. Saw other patients and miss only think I could come to have teeth that I generated a terrible fear.
Ahi referred me to another dentist, Tucumano. I use this hotel, I asked the serial - which had not yet taken-and there would have a certain verdict.
A vezconseguida the serial I saw him.
If you see my teeth in the front and bottom, middle teeth will look much less gum than the rest. He was worried about those teeth, not the Above.
Anyway, saw the series, and gave me a veredito: mild to moderate periodontitis.
According find out there are several levels, mild moderate, severe, or something similar depending on where you look.
This tucumano dentist referred me to another dentistry, that I was going to perform the treatment. It was the sixth dentist who saw in less than 2 weeks. was canzado, but would begin treatment.
