That's great because I'll 55 00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:24,160 Speaker 3: just ask you a bunch of questions because I have 56 00:02:24,200 --> 00:02:28,079 Speaker 3: a ton. First of all, I found you by accident. 57 00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:31,200 Speaker 3: Good luck, I guess I could say a long time ago, 58 00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:34,800 Speaker 3: maybe like twenty eighteen or twenty nineteen, because my boyfriend 59 00:02:34,919 --> 00:02:37,800 Speaker 3: was having really really bad pain and it turned out 60 00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:40,840 Speaker 3: that he needed an emergency root canal. And finding on 61 00:02:40,880 --> 00:02:44,079 Speaker 3: a Saturday someone to do an emergency root canal, we 62 00:02:44,080 --> 00:02:45,200 Speaker 3: were not having. 63 00:02:45,040 --> 00:02:45,520 Speaker 5: A lot of luck. 64 00:02:45,520 --> 00:02:47,240 Speaker 3: And then I saw, oh, load of smiles, maybe they 65 00:02:47,240 --> 00:02:50,240 Speaker 3: can do this, and you did. And one of the 66 00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:52,360 Speaker 3: promises that you made was everything was going to be 67 00:02:52,440 --> 00:02:55,120 Speaker 3: pain free, which I didn't believe, to be honest, because 68 00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:55,880 Speaker 3: it's dentistry. 69 00:02:55,919 --> 00:02:57,480 Speaker 5: You know, everything hurts. That's at least how I thought 70 00:02:57,480 --> 00:02:57,720 Speaker 5: it was. 71 00:02:58,360 --> 00:03:01,240 Speaker 3: And then it was pain free, and you treated him 72 00:03:01,280 --> 00:03:03,359 Speaker 3: so well by the way, you made him really comfortable, 73 00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:04,960 Speaker 3: and that was awesome. So I was like, Okay, there's 74 00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:06,239 Speaker 3: gonna be my dentist now, and that's. 75 00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:06,600 Speaker 5: Where we are. 76 00:03:06,919 --> 00:03:12,000 Speaker 4: Yes. Well, So basically, dentistry has been my passion since 77 00:03:12,040 --> 00:03:15,560 Speaker 4: I can remember myself, and my dad is a dentist. 78 00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:18,800 Speaker 4: And when I remember myself, he was taking me to 79 00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:23,160 Speaker 4: the office quite often, and I would see people come 80 00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:26,920 Speaker 4: into his office all scared, all in fear, all in tears. 81 00:03:27,320 --> 00:03:32,440 Speaker 4: They walk out and be so happy and joyful, and 82 00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:35,360 Speaker 4: I'm like, wow, So this is what dentistry can do 83 00:03:35,440 --> 00:03:41,920 Speaker 4: for people. So I pursued my passion. Right after college, 84 00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:43,760 Speaker 4: I went to dental school and I got a degree, 85 00:03:43,800 --> 00:03:46,320 Speaker 4: and I came out and I started doing dentistry. And 86 00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:49,400 Speaker 4: what I noticed is that people's perception of dentistry is 87 00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:54,000 Speaker 4: far from what I see. People are scared, they hate 88 00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:57,520 Speaker 4: the dentists, they're afraid of dentists. Yeah, really, we are 89 00:03:57,560 --> 00:04:02,120 Speaker 4: there to help him my mission in life, and actually, 90 00:04:02,160 --> 00:04:04,200 Speaker 4: if you ask my stuff, they know our mission in 91 00:04:04,200 --> 00:04:08,560 Speaker 4: the office is to change people's opinion about dentistry, because 92 00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:12,160 Speaker 4: dentistry really doesn't have to be this horrible place. Dentists 93 00:04:12,160 --> 00:04:15,160 Speaker 4: are there to help people live a better life. The 94 00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:19,240 Speaker 4: problem I notice is that people's perception of dentistry, if 95 00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:22,240 Speaker 4: you think about it, comes from their experience. So they're 96 00:04:22,279 --> 00:04:24,960 Speaker 4: afraid of dentists. They go into a dental office and 97 00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:27,560 Speaker 4: they see a glass window, and somebody opens the door 98 00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:29,720 Speaker 4: and gives them a paper and says, go sit down, 99 00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:33,120 Speaker 4: and they spile it and write their name down, and 100 00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:35,480 Speaker 4: they sit there and they wait and they wait. Then 101 00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:37,839 Speaker 4: they go to the room. They get into the room, 102 00:04:37,920 --> 00:04:39,640 Speaker 4: they sit there and they wait and they wait, and 103 00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:43,040 Speaker 4: then somebody comes in does the X rays and so on. 104 00:04:43,480 --> 00:04:47,640 Speaker 4: In our office, we basically change the whole approach. You've 105 00:04:47,640 --> 00:04:49,520 Speaker 4: been to our office, you know when you walk in. 106 00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:51,400 Speaker 4: First of all, it's open space. 107 00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:55,000 Speaker 5: In it's welcoming, and your stuff is nice. 108 00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:57,080 Speaker 4: My staff has been trained to be. 109 00:04:57,160 --> 00:04:59,160 Speaker 5: Nice when you hire them. 110 00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:02,520 Speaker 4: They were, but you know it, Actually we took a 111 00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:06,279 Speaker 4: few courses that actually help my stuff became more friendly, 112 00:05:06,480 --> 00:05:09,000 Speaker 4: you know, And I learned quite a few techniques how 113 00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:12,839 Speaker 4: to do even injection painlessly. So there really should be 114 00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:13,240 Speaker 4: no pain. 115 00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:14,880 Speaker 3: Okay, so you said there should be no pain, but 116 00:05:14,920 --> 00:05:17,840 Speaker 3: obviously with a lot of dentistry there is pain and 117 00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:20,200 Speaker 3: I've been to other dentists and it did hurt, So 118 00:05:20,279 --> 00:05:21,919 Speaker 3: what is the difference the. 119 00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:26,280 Speaker 4: Numbing procedure itself. Nobody likes shots right now, so we're 120 00:05:26,360 --> 00:05:31,760 Speaker 4: injecting an aesthetic into an area where the tissues are 121 00:05:31,960 --> 00:05:36,479 Speaker 4: tightly adhered. So when we inject an aesthetic that's supposed 122 00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:39,039 Speaker 4: to numb up the area, we want to get it 123 00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:41,280 Speaker 4: in and out as fast as possible, just to eliminate 124 00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:43,400 Speaker 4: that unpleasanty. But if you think about it, if you 125 00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:45,760 Speaker 4: just do a couple of drops, so my injections take 126 00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:48,320 Speaker 4: much longer. When you inject just a couple of drops, 127 00:05:48,320 --> 00:05:50,480 Speaker 4: that area gets a little numb, then you can inject 128 00:05:50,480 --> 00:05:52,560 Speaker 4: a little more. And I have a left hand rule, 129 00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:55,160 Speaker 4: so if you feel pain, you raise it up. And then, 130 00:05:55,320 --> 00:05:59,559 Speaker 4: of course there's another more technical issue with the medibular block. 131 00:05:59,600 --> 00:06:03,880 Speaker 4: It's challenging to find that nerve that gets into the mandible, 132 00:06:03,960 --> 00:06:05,680 Speaker 4: so the mandible is different than the maxila. 133 00:06:05,839 --> 00:06:08,599 Speaker 3: But do they not make everybody learn that? That seems 134 00:06:08,640 --> 00:06:10,839 Speaker 3: like that would be very important to learn all about 135 00:06:10,839 --> 00:06:16,760 Speaker 3: that mandibular block so that everybody can have pain free dentists. 136 00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:20,719 Speaker 4: Techniques that come and with experience, it's not always easy 137 00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:23,520 Speaker 4: to get to that spot. So you have to come 138 00:06:23,560 --> 00:06:27,240 Speaker 4: in at a certain angle, move it at a certain angle. 139 00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:31,320 Speaker 4: So I actually trained my my associates that work with 140 00:06:31,360 --> 00:06:32,279 Speaker 4: me how to do that. 141 00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:35,919 Speaker 3: All right, So speaking of dentistry and dental work, the 142 00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:37,680 Speaker 3: reason I had you in here is because you were 143 00:06:37,680 --> 00:06:40,919 Speaker 3: actually listening to my podcast and you heard Nicole and Jemmy, 144 00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:45,440 Speaker 3: who's a pathology assistant. She was talking about how there 145 00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:48,240 Speaker 3: was a football player and after they did the autopsy 146 00:06:48,279 --> 00:06:50,560 Speaker 3: when he died, they realized that he had lesions on 147 00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:52,479 Speaker 3: his brain from cavities. 148 00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:54,960 Speaker 5: Because your mouth can kill you. And that is really 149 00:06:54,960 --> 00:06:56,760 Speaker 5: what I want to talk about because there are so 150 00:06:56,800 --> 00:06:57,440 Speaker 5: many ways. 151 00:06:57,680 --> 00:06:59,000 Speaker 3: One of the things that blows my mind, and I 152 00:06:59,040 --> 00:07:01,919 Speaker 3: think why people might not associate it to so closely 153 00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:04,760 Speaker 3: is it dental insurance and health insurance are for some 154 00:07:04,839 --> 00:07:08,240 Speaker 3: reason different things. I don't understand why, since it has 155 00:07:08,279 --> 00:07:11,040 Speaker 3: a direct impact on the rest of your health, right, 156 00:07:11,280 --> 00:07:14,560 Speaker 3: But what is the number one thing that you will 157 00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:16,160 Speaker 3: tell people? This is what you have to look out 158 00:07:16,200 --> 00:07:17,440 Speaker 3: for when it comes to your mouth. 159 00:07:18,640 --> 00:07:22,560 Speaker 4: So I think there's a lot of misconceptions and misunderstandings. 160 00:07:22,960 --> 00:07:25,000 Speaker 4: People know that you should go to a dentist, but 161 00:07:25,160 --> 00:07:28,800 Speaker 4: I don't think they really realize the importance. I have 162 00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:30,280 Speaker 4: a lot of patients who say, you know, I brush 163 00:07:30,360 --> 00:07:32,800 Speaker 4: my teeth every day, what's the point for me to 164 00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:36,560 Speaker 4: go that often I brush? So there's areas where bacteria 165 00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:40,440 Speaker 4: can reach and the brush cannot reach. And when bacteria 166 00:07:40,480 --> 00:07:43,720 Speaker 4: settles in certain areas, let's say between the gum and 167 00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:46,120 Speaker 4: the tooth, or it settles inside of the tooth, you 168 00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:49,480 Speaker 4: can't feel any pain. So people try to prolong that 169 00:07:49,560 --> 00:07:53,640 Speaker 4: unpleasant experience as long as possible, and they allow this 170 00:07:53,760 --> 00:07:57,880 Speaker 4: bacteria to fluster until it gets to such an extent 171 00:07:57,960 --> 00:08:01,080 Speaker 4: where it can find a pathway through the and start 172 00:08:01,520 --> 00:08:02,960 Speaker 4: settling inside of the bone. 173 00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:05,080 Speaker 5: So it just burrows its way into your bones. 174 00:08:06,120 --> 00:08:09,920 Speaker 4: It can get into the canal, the dreaded road canal. Yeah, 175 00:08:09,960 --> 00:08:12,160 Speaker 4: And once it gets into the canal, it can gets 176 00:08:12,200 --> 00:08:15,160 Speaker 4: through the canal and then starts accumulating in the surrounding tissues. 177 00:08:15,480 --> 00:08:18,560 Speaker 4: And if you depending on how bad you're afraid of dentists, 178 00:08:18,600 --> 00:08:20,280 Speaker 4: if you're really afraid, then you take a lot of 179 00:08:20,320 --> 00:08:23,880 Speaker 4: pain medication. After a while the pain subsides, but infection 180 00:08:24,040 --> 00:08:28,000 Speaker 4: now without you feeling, it can go into the tooth 181 00:08:28,640 --> 00:08:32,200 Speaker 4: and through the canal. Start accumulating in the surrounding tissues. 182 00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:37,160 Speaker 5: How often do you actually see that? Quite often every day? 183 00:08:37,559 --> 00:08:39,640 Speaker 3: Okay, So before you got here, I started looking up 184 00:08:39,760 --> 00:08:40,959 Speaker 3: dental stories. 185 00:08:41,280 --> 00:08:42,720 Speaker 5: Okay, all kinds. 186 00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:45,240 Speaker 3: Of stuff that I am now like, is that even possible? 187 00:08:45,360 --> 00:08:48,240 Speaker 3: Is it true? Because it can't believe everything I read 188 00:08:48,320 --> 00:08:50,480 Speaker 3: on the internet. Is it true that if you have 189 00:08:50,760 --> 00:08:54,000 Speaker 3: like a seed somewhere buried in your gums or in 190 00:08:54,040 --> 00:08:56,360 Speaker 3: your teeth, it can actually start to grow a plant? 191 00:08:56,920 --> 00:08:58,520 Speaker 4: That is absolutely not true. 192 00:08:58,559 --> 00:09:00,000 Speaker 5: It's not true. I read about a tomato plans. 193 00:09:00,320 --> 00:09:02,440 Speaker 3: This person said that they had a tomato sea that 194 00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:04,840 Speaker 3: had been embedded in the person's mouth and a tomato 195 00:09:04,880 --> 00:09:05,600 Speaker 3: plant started growing. 196 00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:07,360 Speaker 5: As a what this is crazy? 197 00:09:07,400 --> 00:09:11,240 Speaker 4: Other than bacteria, there's nothing that can grow nothing. 198 00:09:11,559 --> 00:09:15,080 Speaker 3: I wrote another thing about maggots, fungus. Fungus can grow it, Okay, 199 00:09:15,080 --> 00:09:16,880 Speaker 3: fungus can grow to mess with. 200 00:09:16,880 --> 00:09:20,160 Speaker 4: The bacterial flora. You know, people who take a lot 201 00:09:20,160 --> 00:09:24,160 Speaker 4: of antibiotics for like organ transplants. Then if bacteria is 202 00:09:24,160 --> 00:09:26,840 Speaker 4: not there, if fungus start growing, so you need bacteria. 203 00:09:26,880 --> 00:09:28,560 Speaker 4: You just need to keep it under control. 204 00:09:28,840 --> 00:09:29,160 Speaker 5: Okay. 205 00:09:29,760 --> 00:09:32,040 Speaker 4: And a lot of people who don't have insurance, they 206 00:09:32,080 --> 00:09:34,560 Speaker 4: think they can't afford the dentists, And what they do 207 00:09:34,679 --> 00:09:36,840 Speaker 4: is they don't realize bacteria doesn't know whether you have 208 00:09:37,080 --> 00:09:40,680 Speaker 4: insurance or not. It's just gonna grow. So when they 209 00:09:40,679 --> 00:09:42,720 Speaker 4: come to me, it's already at the point where there's 210 00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:45,240 Speaker 4: a lot of destruction and it takes a lot of 211 00:09:45,320 --> 00:09:49,840 Speaker 4: costs to repair it. Patients who come regularly, we can 212 00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:54,160 Speaker 4: maintain that bacterial environment in the mouth at the point 213 00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:57,520 Speaker 4: where even if they're pretty disposed to developing cavities, we 214 00:09:57,559 --> 00:09:59,600 Speaker 4: can catch it early before they get to the nerve 215 00:09:59,679 --> 00:10:03,240 Speaker 4: and through the in the earth start going into the brain. 216 00:10:03,559 --> 00:10:05,720 Speaker 3: I feel like that is terrifying in a good way 217 00:10:05,760 --> 00:10:07,720 Speaker 3: because people need to know, hey, go to the dentist 218 00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:10,480 Speaker 3: regularly so that this stuff doesn't happen. Which what is 219 00:10:10,520 --> 00:10:11,440 Speaker 3: regularly three months? 220 00:10:11,480 --> 00:10:13,120 Speaker 5: Six months? How often do you want people in there? 221 00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:16,480 Speaker 4: Normally it's every six months. If people already have periodontal disease, 222 00:10:16,559 --> 00:10:19,280 Speaker 4: that means the peridental pocket is already bigger. Now we 223 00:10:19,360 --> 00:10:21,320 Speaker 4: have to get in there more frequently, so then it's 224 00:10:21,320 --> 00:10:25,839 Speaker 4: three months. So it depends on every individuals separately. 225 00:10:26,040 --> 00:10:30,240 Speaker 3: Okay, is it true that bugs little maggots? If something 226 00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:32,560 Speaker 3: lays an egg in your mouth, they can hatch in there. 227 00:10:32,800 --> 00:10:34,559 Speaker 5: No, it's not. I saw that one too. 228 00:10:34,760 --> 00:10:36,240 Speaker 3: So what is some of the craziest stuff that you 229 00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:38,400 Speaker 3: have seen, because you have to see all kinds of 230 00:10:38,400 --> 00:10:40,720 Speaker 3: stuff working in everybody's mouth all the time. 231 00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:44,120 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, so sometimes you can have so much 232 00:10:44,200 --> 00:10:46,640 Speaker 4: calculus that there is no bone, but it's just the 233 00:10:47,120 --> 00:10:49,360 Speaker 4: gunk that's actually holding the teeth in place. 234 00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:52,360 Speaker 5: Calculus is like built up plaque, like the heart. 235 00:10:52,720 --> 00:10:55,800 Speaker 4: So basically, this bacteria that's in our mouth, no matter 236 00:10:55,800 --> 00:10:57,240 Speaker 4: how well your brush is going to a little bit 237 00:10:57,240 --> 00:11:01,000 Speaker 4: a little build up, build up, and it forms plaque, 238 00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:03,920 Speaker 4: which is soft, and then that plaque uses minerals in 239 00:11:04,040 --> 00:11:08,800 Speaker 4: salivary and becomes hard like stone, like barnacles, and then 240 00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:12,160 Speaker 4: if you have enough of them, they destroyed the bone. 241 00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:14,960 Speaker 4: So the bone starts peeling away from all this infection. 242 00:11:15,200 --> 00:11:19,240 Speaker 4: So we're basically dealing with an oral oral cavity which 243 00:11:19,280 --> 00:11:22,120 Speaker 4: is full of bacteria. And in order for that bacteria 244 00:11:22,160 --> 00:11:24,120 Speaker 4: not to infect the gums, you have to keep it 245 00:11:24,200 --> 00:11:26,880 Speaker 4: under control. If you don't, it builds up and it 246 00:11:27,040 --> 00:11:31,679 Speaker 4: causes inflammation that causes the bone to peel away from 247 00:11:31,679 --> 00:11:34,520 Speaker 4: the inflammation and not cheat become loose. And that's how 248 00:11:34,600 --> 00:11:36,959 Speaker 4: most people, not most people, but people who lose their 249 00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:41,280 Speaker 4: teeth to prere dental disease lose it because that bacterial 250 00:11:41,480 --> 00:11:44,839 Speaker 4: environment that wasn't under control causes so much inflammation that 251 00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:47,960 Speaker 4: with time bone peeled away. So now that the bone 252 00:11:48,400 --> 00:11:50,800 Speaker 4: is gone, that cheat become loose and the only thing 253 00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:53,520 Speaker 4: that's actually holding them in the mouth is the gun 254 00:11:53,640 --> 00:11:55,559 Speaker 4: that started it all to begin with. 255 00:11:56,160 --> 00:12:00,280 Speaker 3: Oh, okay, so they're held together by plaque. Then remove 256 00:12:00,320 --> 00:12:01,560 Speaker 3: the plak and all the teeth fall out, like what 257 00:12:01,600 --> 00:12:02,200 Speaker 3: happens there. 258 00:12:02,320 --> 00:12:05,200 Speaker 4: So that's that's that's One of the other scary stories 259 00:12:05,240 --> 00:12:07,000 Speaker 4: that patients tell me is that they don't go to 260 00:12:07,040 --> 00:12:09,760 Speaker 4: the dentists. Once they went and they teeth fell out afterwards, 261 00:12:10,280 --> 00:12:11,240 Speaker 4: that's what happens. 262 00:12:11,480 --> 00:12:11,960 Speaker 5: Okay. 263 00:12:12,320 --> 00:12:14,320 Speaker 3: I mean, well, as a dentist, if you're removing all 264 00:12:14,360 --> 00:12:16,080 Speaker 3: of that plaque, do you warn them, hey, your teeth 265 00:12:16,120 --> 00:12:16,680 Speaker 3: might fall out? 266 00:12:17,080 --> 00:12:19,720 Speaker 4: Well, if you see that on an extra before you start, 267 00:12:19,800 --> 00:12:21,800 Speaker 4: you tell them that your teeth will fall out, and 268 00:12:21,920 --> 00:12:25,120 Speaker 4: you plan for partial denture or something before you start 269 00:12:25,160 --> 00:12:25,720 Speaker 4: that treatment. 270 00:12:26,240 --> 00:12:26,520 Speaker 5: Okay. 271 00:12:26,559 --> 00:12:29,679 Speaker 3: So as far as foods go, which foods are rotting 272 00:12:29,720 --> 00:12:33,079 Speaker 3: our teeth the most I've guessed it, So it's always sugar. 273 00:12:32,880 --> 00:12:34,559 Speaker 4: Right, refined carbs, yes. 274 00:12:34,520 --> 00:12:36,640 Speaker 5: Refined carbs like bread, yeah. 275 00:12:36,559 --> 00:12:39,839 Speaker 4: Bread, candy that sticks to your teeth and it sits 276 00:12:39,840 --> 00:12:44,360 Speaker 4: on your teeth and lit like skittles, skittle things that 277 00:12:44,360 --> 00:12:46,640 Speaker 4: are actually good for your teeth. A dark chocolate, but 278 00:12:46,679 --> 00:12:48,959 Speaker 4: it has to be darker than seventy seventy five percent. 279 00:12:49,200 --> 00:12:51,920 Speaker 4: Okay that actually bacteria doesn't like that. 280 00:12:52,400 --> 00:12:54,360 Speaker 5: Okay, oh, bacteria doesn't like dark chocolate. 281 00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:56,559 Speaker 4: It prevents it from attaching to the tooth. 282 00:12:56,960 --> 00:12:57,760 Speaker 5: Knew, you knew. 283 00:12:58,840 --> 00:13:02,800 Speaker 4: Cheeses not bad but actually good. Few teeth and xylotal. 284 00:13:03,080 --> 00:13:06,560 Speaker 4: So basically the way things work is every time you eat, 285 00:13:07,559 --> 00:13:10,560 Speaker 4: even if you don't need carbs, bacteria will find food 286 00:13:10,600 --> 00:13:14,240 Speaker 4: for itself. So what happens if you you know how 287 00:13:14,240 --> 00:13:17,080 Speaker 4: we were told not to chew gum. That was back 288 00:13:17,120 --> 00:13:20,200 Speaker 4: from the days when the gum was bazuko gum like 289 00:13:20,520 --> 00:13:22,200 Speaker 4: they had a lot of sugar, a lot of bad 290 00:13:22,760 --> 00:13:26,160 Speaker 4: right now, if you get a xyleotal gum. So after 291 00:13:26,440 --> 00:13:30,440 Speaker 4: you eat anything, the environment in the mouth drops. It 292 00:13:30,480 --> 00:13:34,199 Speaker 4: becomes more acidic because bacteria starts breaking down sugars to 293 00:13:34,280 --> 00:13:38,280 Speaker 4: make energy for itself, releases acidity as a byproduct. Acidity 294 00:13:38,559 --> 00:13:43,280 Speaker 4: causes weakening of en ammel. It weakens the bunch. So 295 00:13:43,320 --> 00:13:45,839 Speaker 4: then now bacteria can get into the tooth and start 296 00:13:45,880 --> 00:13:49,960 Speaker 4: growing rapidly. So by chewing a xylotal gum or a 297 00:13:50,040 --> 00:13:54,240 Speaker 4: sugar free gum, you actually simulates a liber production which 298 00:13:54,400 --> 00:13:57,120 Speaker 4: is seven point four in acidity, and that kind of 299 00:13:57,160 --> 00:14:00,280 Speaker 4: balances out faster. So let's say after you eat big 300 00:14:00,280 --> 00:14:03,480 Speaker 4: teeth become more susceptible to cavities, you chew gum just 301 00:14:03,520 --> 00:14:06,440 Speaker 4: for a few minutes to stimulate seld productions actually helpful. 302 00:14:06,480 --> 00:14:10,440 Speaker 4: So xilotol is good to keep your teeth longer. Obviously, 303 00:14:10,440 --> 00:14:12,560 Speaker 4: if you're gonna chow every day, you're gonna develop temperamily 304 00:14:12,559 --> 00:14:13,760 Speaker 4: devil joint disorder. 305 00:14:13,800 --> 00:14:16,679 Speaker 5: But if you eat what, you're gonna develop what tmj oh. 306 00:14:17,040 --> 00:14:20,080 Speaker 4: And then if you just chew few minutes just you know, 307 00:14:20,280 --> 00:14:22,640 Speaker 4: to remove extra debris, it's actually a good thing. 308 00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:24,720 Speaker 5: Xilotol gumto is. 309 00:14:24,680 --> 00:14:28,600 Speaker 4: Specific specific sugar oh that prevents bacteria from binding. 310 00:14:28,760 --> 00:14:30,400 Speaker 5: So like which gum has that in it? You know? 311 00:14:30,560 --> 00:14:33,400 Speaker 5: I got to look at okay, I was, I wasn't. 312 00:14:33,240 --> 00:14:35,360 Speaker 3: Sure if you choo oh tried it maybe okay, if 313 00:14:35,400 --> 00:14:38,280 Speaker 3: you chew it yourself, or if you had a good recommendation. 314 00:14:38,520 --> 00:14:39,480 Speaker 5: What about soda? 315 00:14:40,080 --> 00:14:42,800 Speaker 4: So yeah, so I don't drink soda myself. I don't 316 00:14:42,800 --> 00:14:45,359 Speaker 4: recommend it. There's so much sugar. 317 00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:46,200 Speaker 5: In seems like poison. 318 00:14:46,320 --> 00:14:49,040 Speaker 4: It's poisoned. Yeah, you know, I don't want to judge people, 319 00:14:49,040 --> 00:14:49,840 Speaker 4: but I don't know a. 320 00:14:49,760 --> 00:14:51,000 Speaker 3: Lot of people will say things like that, like I 321 00:14:51,000 --> 00:14:52,640 Speaker 3: don't want to judge. I don't think it's a judgment 322 00:14:52,680 --> 00:14:54,640 Speaker 3: as much as hey, just be careful because this is 323 00:14:54,680 --> 00:14:57,280 Speaker 3: not good for you and I as a dentist, and 324 00:14:57,400 --> 00:14:59,520 Speaker 3: what you know, this is how you can save your teeth. 325 00:15:00,560 --> 00:15:08,120 Speaker 3: That's Nate, Nate.

Yeah? 343 00:15:53,280 --> 00:15:54,960 Speaker 1: Anyway, so I got to ask you about my mom. 344 00:15:55,000 --> 00:15:57,320 Speaker 5: Sorry, I'm like, please, no, I love this. 345 00:15:57,680 --> 00:16:00,520 Speaker 1: She's having two rude canals done, she said, did she 346 00:16:00,640 --> 00:16:03,240 Speaker 1: just have bad dentistry? When she like? How many times 347 00:16:03,280 --> 00:16:05,680 Speaker 1: are you fixing other people's bad work? 348 00:16:05,880 --> 00:16:08,000 Speaker 4: So it depends on when was the last time she 349 00:16:08,120 --> 00:16:08,800 Speaker 4: saw a dentist. 350 00:16:08,840 --> 00:16:10,320 Speaker 1: Well, she sees one all the time, but I guess 351 00:16:10,320 --> 00:16:12,560 Speaker 1: she hear her dentist when she was younger was really bad. 352 00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:17,160 Speaker 4: Yeah, So if she had a previous large restoration, that 353 00:16:17,320 --> 00:16:20,520 Speaker 4: makes it more susceptible to developing rutkena later on. 354 00:16:20,680 --> 00:16:23,480 Speaker 1: So you have to it has to be at what 355 00:16:23,600 --> 00:16:26,440 Speaker 1: point do I say, Mom, just pull them all and 356 00:16:26,480 --> 00:16:27,040 Speaker 1: do dentures? 357 00:16:27,120 --> 00:16:31,080 Speaker 4: Never? Never my belief, and I promise that to all 358 00:16:31,120 --> 00:16:34,400 Speaker 4: of my patients that if you stick with me, you'll 359 00:16:34,400 --> 00:16:36,600 Speaker 4: have your teeth when you're a hundred years old. Really, 360 00:16:36,920 --> 00:16:40,200 Speaker 4: with modern technology, you really shouldn't lose your teeth. I 361 00:16:40,240 --> 00:16:42,320 Speaker 4: mean only due to accident maybe. 362 00:16:42,400 --> 00:16:42,680 Speaker 1: Yeah. 363 00:16:42,760 --> 00:16:45,760 Speaker 4: So the cause of tooth loss is purdental disease, which 364 00:16:45,840 --> 00:16:50,040 Speaker 4: can be controlled with every six months checkup and cavity. 365 00:16:50,040 --> 00:16:52,160 Speaker 4: If it gets to the nerve and then it destroys 366 00:16:52,160 --> 00:16:55,360 Speaker 4: the tooth, then it becomes complicated. But if you catch 367 00:16:55,440 --> 00:16:59,200 Speaker 4: cavity early and fix it, there's really no reason, especially 368 00:16:59,240 --> 00:17:02,560 Speaker 4: in modern times, that people should be without teeth, but 369 00:17:02,600 --> 00:17:03,640 Speaker 4: no matter how old they are. 370 00:17:03,880 --> 00:17:11,800 Speaker 1: So how's the work in my man? Okay? Where are 371 00:17:11,840 --> 00:17:15,000 Speaker 1: you located? Because I think, okay done, I've got a 372 00:17:15,040 --> 00:17:15,640 Speaker 1: new dentist. 373 00:17:16,200 --> 00:17:18,720 Speaker 3: I told you right doship from my apartment, so you 374 00:17:18,760 --> 00:17:21,440 Speaker 3: can come and stay, get some some dental work done, 375 00:17:21,440 --> 00:17:21,920 Speaker 3: and head out. 376 00:17:22,000 --> 00:17:24,520 Speaker 1: Fantastic, All right, I'll give you a big odd next 377 00:17:24,560 --> 00:17:27,560 Speaker 1: time you thing you used to suck out the spit with? 378 00:17:27,880 --> 00:17:30,840 Speaker 4: Yes, what is that called section? 379 00:17:32,400 --> 00:17:35,080 Speaker 1: I have overactive salivary glance, so that things always. 380 00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:37,199 Speaker 4: A good thing. That's one of the reasons I was 381 00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:40,960 Speaker 4: just explaining to Gandhi that you keep your teeth healthy 382 00:17:40,960 --> 00:17:44,320 Speaker 4: if you have a healthy salibarty flow. Yes, because saliva 383 00:17:44,840 --> 00:17:48,920 Speaker 4: is a it's a it's a buffer seven point four 384 00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:52,600 Speaker 4: pH which balances your mouth and prevents you from getting cavity. 385 00:17:52,640 --> 00:17:53,800 Speaker 4: Here's my exactly right. 386 00:17:54,040 --> 00:18:01,520 Speaker 3: He's got great teeth, those a lot.

In fact, I was looking for it. Then 403 00:18:32,680 --> 00:18:34,000 Speaker 4: they couldn't hear it. 404 00:18:34,440 --> 00:18:35,119 Speaker 5: Very good I hear. 405 00:18:35,160 --> 00:18:37,480 Speaker 3: But okay, So I feel like I'm producing more saliva 406 00:18:37,680 --> 00:18:40,320 Speaker 3: with these and with these, so that's a good thing, 407 00:18:40,600 --> 00:18:41,000 Speaker 3: you say. 408 00:18:41,920 --> 00:18:44,320 Speaker 4: So basically, the way we're designed, if we put anything 409 00:18:44,320 --> 00:18:46,119 Speaker 4: in the mouth, we're thinking we're going to eat it. 410 00:18:46,200 --> 00:18:48,120 Speaker 4: So you start producing saliva right away. 411 00:18:48,320 --> 00:18:51,200 Speaker 3: I think, so my mouth is saying I'm gonna eat. 412 00:18:52,680 --> 00:18:55,280 Speaker 4: That's a good reaction. Okay, it's not bad. It's a 413 00:18:55,320 --> 00:18:55,640 Speaker 4: good thing. 414 00:18:55,680 --> 00:18:59,040 Speaker 3: Actually, do people really successfully wear these for twenty two 415 00:18:59,200 --> 00:18:59,880 Speaker 3: hours a day? 416 00:19:00,160 --> 00:19:02,640 Speaker 4: Yes, And I can see that at your check up, you. 417 00:19:02,560 --> 00:19:04,640 Speaker 3: Can you'll be able to tell if I've done it. Yes, 418 00:19:04,760 --> 00:19:07,359 Speaker 3: I've mostly done it for the most part. I think 419 00:19:07,400 --> 00:19:09,520 Speaker 3: there was a day on vacation where I forgot that 420 00:19:09,600 --> 00:19:10,840 Speaker 3: I need to bring a toothbrush with me. 421 00:19:10,920 --> 00:19:14,280 Speaker 4: Well that I wouldn't know, but I will know because 422 00:19:14,800 --> 00:19:17,879 Speaker 4: in this line worked great. But a lot to do 423 00:19:17,920 --> 00:19:21,720 Speaker 4: with patient participations. So if you're not wearing them, I'm 424 00:19:21,760 --> 00:19:24,359 Speaker 4: going to tell that the teeth are not tracking, and 425 00:19:24,560 --> 00:19:29,760 Speaker 4: the next aligner is already designed considering that the previous 426 00:19:29,800 --> 00:19:32,280 Speaker 4: alignment did its job so little by little starts going 427 00:19:32,280 --> 00:19:35,679 Speaker 4: off track, and then when you try to force it in, 428 00:19:35,800 --> 00:19:39,240 Speaker 4: that's when people tell you, oh, in this lines hurt. Well, 429 00:19:39,240 --> 00:19:42,639 Speaker 4: they hurt because you didn't wear them regularly, but people 430 00:19:42,640 --> 00:19:44,720 Speaker 4: don't like to admit that. Oh I just did. 431 00:19:44,560 --> 00:19:48,480 Speaker 3: Admit it the one day. But I've been doing a 432 00:19:48,480 --> 00:19:50,400 Speaker 3: really good job with it because I want them to work. 433 00:20:00,760 --> 00:20:01,439 Speaker 5: I told you this. 434 00:20:01,560 --> 00:20:04,160 Speaker 3: So I never had braces or anything like that when 435 00:20:04,160 --> 00:20:06,920 Speaker 3: I was little, because it was all about my bite. 436 00:20:06,960 --> 00:20:10,640 Speaker 3: And my bite was apparently okay, but my teeth on 437 00:20:10,680 --> 00:20:14,280 Speaker 3: the bottom started moving because I had those extra wisdom teeth, 438 00:20:14,920 --> 00:20:17,000 Speaker 3: and the ones on the top started moving too, and 439 00:20:17,040 --> 00:20:18,760 Speaker 3: they used to be totally straight, and now they're a 440 00:20:18,760 --> 00:20:21,080 Speaker 3: little crooked. And I didn't notice until these stupid cameras 441 00:20:21,280 --> 00:20:23,480 Speaker 3: were on me all the time, and now I see 442 00:20:23,480 --> 00:20:25,040 Speaker 3: them in videos and I think, oh, and. 443 00:20:25,119 --> 00:20:27,679 Speaker 4: Here's nothing me by the way. Okay, So whether you 444 00:20:27,720 --> 00:20:30,800 Speaker 4: have wisdom teeth or not, your teeth will shift, will they? Yes? 445 00:20:30,880 --> 00:20:33,560 Speaker 4: So I had my wisdom teeth that removed long time ago. 446 00:20:34,040 --> 00:20:36,439 Speaker 4: I was in my twenties, and then my teeth just 447 00:20:36,480 --> 00:20:38,680 Speaker 4: started to shift even though I have no wisdom teeth. 448 00:20:38,760 --> 00:20:39,880 Speaker 5: Why is that what happens? 449 00:20:40,080 --> 00:20:42,959 Speaker 4: So basically, your body goes through changes. You're not going 450 00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:46,399 Speaker 4: to look like this when you're sixty or eighty, you know, shrink. 451 00:20:46,480 --> 00:20:49,320 Speaker 4: So everything in your in your body changes and as 452 00:20:49,359 --> 00:20:52,000 Speaker 4: the boundary models, teeth like to shift around, so you 453 00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:54,920 Speaker 4: try to keep them in place. You got to wear 454 00:20:55,040 --> 00:20:56,560 Speaker 4: a retainer every night. 455 00:20:56,760 --> 00:20:59,160 Speaker 3: So once I go through, Yeah, Diamond, when you threw 456 00:20:59,160 --> 00:21:01,880 Speaker 3: your retainer away and I melted it? 457 00:21:02,040 --> 00:21:04,080 Speaker 5: She melted it? Wait? How did you melt it? 458 00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:06,840 Speaker 6: This is very embarrassing. But I thought that I had 459 00:21:06,840 --> 00:21:09,080 Speaker 6: to sterilize it because I hadn't used it in a while, 460 00:21:09,119 --> 00:21:11,960 Speaker 6: and I put it into a cup of boiling hot 461 00:21:12,000 --> 00:21:14,200 Speaker 6: water and it melted right in front of me. 462 00:21:14,320 --> 00:21:17,240 Speaker 4: And like, oh, don't feel bad. College is usually where 463 00:21:17,240 --> 00:21:20,280 Speaker 4: retainers get lost and think this is the place. This 464 00:21:20,400 --> 00:21:23,479 Speaker 4: is like a Bermuda triangle for the retainers. It's like 465 00:21:23,760 --> 00:21:26,600 Speaker 4: I see day in and day outpatients can mean I 466 00:21:26,600 --> 00:21:28,960 Speaker 4: had entertainers I had, I had in visil lines. I 467 00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:31,000 Speaker 4: mean I had braces before when I was a kid, 468 00:21:31,000 --> 00:21:33,920 Speaker 4: I had. Everything was great. Then I went to college 469 00:21:34,359 --> 00:21:37,040 Speaker 4: and that's how every story starts. And then I lost 470 00:21:37,040 --> 00:21:39,080 Speaker 4: my retainer and now I'm back and now I'm doing 471 00:21:39,119 --> 00:21:39,800 Speaker 4: in visil liance. 472 00:21:40,040 --> 00:21:41,320 Speaker 5: And you didn't want to tell your parents because you 473 00:21:41,320 --> 00:21:41,760 Speaker 5: thought they were. 474 00:21:41,760 --> 00:21:45,440 Speaker 6: Not terrified, because they had already said, like, make sure 475 00:21:45,520 --> 00:21:48,040 Speaker 6: that you hold on to these retainers because they're expensive 476 00:21:48,119 --> 00:21:48,760 Speaker 6: or something like. 477 00:21:48,680 --> 00:21:51,159 Speaker 4: That, so terristic. So when you pay for your own 478 00:21:51,200 --> 00:21:53,399 Speaker 4: invision line, you will wear you will wear retaining. 479 00:21:53,440 --> 00:21:54,879 Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm probably gonna to do it again. 480 00:21:55,200 --> 00:21:56,080 Speaker 6: Now, don't know where to go? 481 00:21:56,240 --> 00:21:58,960 Speaker 3: You know, yes, Jersey City, load of smiles. This is like, 482 00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:00,560 Speaker 3: this is gonna be like a forty five minute long 483 00:22:00,600 --> 00:22:02,280 Speaker 3: infomercial for how much I love. 484 00:22:02,160 --> 00:22:03,480 Speaker 5: My dentist, which is true. 485 00:22:03,480 --> 00:22:05,600 Speaker 3: I've talked about you plenty of times, like on the air, 486 00:22:05,720 --> 00:22:08,560 Speaker 3: off the air, because when I find a medical professional 487 00:22:08,600 --> 00:22:10,760 Speaker 3: that I like, I feel like I should share it 488 00:22:10,800 --> 00:22:14,000 Speaker 3: with the world because it's a very close relationship that 489 00:22:14,040 --> 00:22:15,560 Speaker 3: you have with somebody, whether you want to or not, 490 00:22:15,920 --> 00:22:17,320 Speaker 3: and you want to be comfortable with them, and you've 491 00:22:17,320 --> 00:22:19,200 Speaker 3: done a really good job of making me comfortable to thanks. 492 00:22:19,280 --> 00:22:21,240 Speaker 4: Yes. So, like I said, that goes back to my 493 00:22:21,600 --> 00:22:24,879 Speaker 4: ideology that I want to change people's opinion about dentistry. 494 00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:27,280 Speaker 4: So it's not like a mystery what did the dentist 495 00:22:27,400 --> 00:22:29,960 Speaker 4: find there? You come in, we put in a chair, 496 00:22:29,960 --> 00:22:31,760 Speaker 4: we scan your teeth, you see it on the screen, 497 00:22:31,960 --> 00:22:34,359 Speaker 4: and we have a discussion. So it's a it's a 498 00:22:34,400 --> 00:22:37,960 Speaker 4: different dentistry than it used to be. And that's why 499 00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:40,960 Speaker 4: you start feeling comfortable because you can see what's going on. 500 00:22:41,119 --> 00:22:44,119 Speaker 4: You know what's going on, you're involved. It doesn't have 501 00:22:44,200 --> 00:22:46,600 Speaker 4: to be a bad experience. It's actually you know, we're 502 00:22:46,640 --> 00:22:49,720 Speaker 4: always looking at our patient's comfort. Like I said, the 503 00:22:49,800 --> 00:22:52,280 Speaker 4: left hand rule. As soon as they're they need to 504 00:22:52,560 --> 00:22:54,040 Speaker 4: raise it up. Everything must stop that. 505 00:22:54,560 --> 00:22:57,960 Speaker 3: And you actually put my tooth gems on my teeth. Yes, 506 00:22:58,119 --> 00:23:00,240 Speaker 3: the first time I got them done, I got done 507 00:23:00,280 --> 00:23:03,000 Speaker 3: three times. With you, they've actually stuck and they have 508 00:23:03,160 --> 00:23:05,240 Speaker 3: not come off. I didn't swallow them, which I'm pretty 509 00:23:05,240 --> 00:23:06,280 Speaker 3: sure I swallowed all the other. 510 00:23:06,119 --> 00:23:09,720 Speaker 5: Ones, because do you have them, then I do. Yeah, 511 00:23:09,720 --> 00:23:10,920 Speaker 5: I have them with the with the on that. 512 00:23:11,600 --> 00:23:15,400 Speaker 3: When I did the first time in California some tattoo shop, 513 00:23:15,440 --> 00:23:17,080 Speaker 3: I'm pretty sure it was just like Elmer's glue or 514 00:23:17,080 --> 00:23:18,080 Speaker 3: something that they stuck on there. 515 00:23:17,960 --> 00:23:19,160 Speaker 5: Because those were off quickly. 516 00:23:19,600 --> 00:23:21,960 Speaker 3: The second time, I went to a drag queen in Brooklyn, 517 00:23:22,760 --> 00:23:24,399 Speaker 3: not really sure what I was thinking of that either. 518 00:23:24,760 --> 00:23:26,439 Speaker 3: And then the third time I came in to you 519 00:23:26,480 --> 00:23:28,000 Speaker 3: and you were like, where did you get these done? 520 00:23:28,160 --> 00:23:29,919 Speaker 3: And I told you you said, you know, I actually 521 00:23:29,920 --> 00:23:31,720 Speaker 3: I think, Masha, I think your wife told me that 522 00:23:31,760 --> 00:23:32,800 Speaker 3: you guys did them there. 523 00:23:32,840 --> 00:23:34,240 Speaker 4: So I was like, you know what, she has one 524 00:23:34,280 --> 00:23:35,240 Speaker 4: for many many years. 525 00:23:35,320 --> 00:23:37,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, she said hers had stayed on for a long time. 526 00:23:37,440 --> 00:23:40,080 Speaker 3: It might have stayed on at this point for four years. 527 00:23:40,280 --> 00:23:41,040 Speaker 5: I think they're. 528 00:23:40,880 --> 00:23:43,200 Speaker 3: Still there, still going strong. So yeah, you do all 529 00:23:43,240 --> 00:23:45,000 Speaker 3: kinds of stuff over there, and we love it you. 530 00:23:45,160 --> 00:23:49,119 Speaker 3: Speaking of technology, is it true that you can microchip 531 00:23:49,160 --> 00:23:50,920 Speaker 3: people by putting a chip into their tooth? 532 00:23:51,480 --> 00:23:54,600 Speaker 4: I guess depending on the size, it's possible to put 533 00:23:54,600 --> 00:23:57,240 Speaker 4: it into the crown. If you really shave down the tooth, 534 00:23:57,280 --> 00:24:00,159 Speaker 4: there's still enough room in there if the micro but 535 00:24:00,160 --> 00:24:02,119 Speaker 4: I don't know how big it is. So theoretically I 536 00:24:02,119 --> 00:24:05,320 Speaker 4: would see that be a possibility, but I don't know 537 00:24:05,359 --> 00:24:05,720 Speaker 4: if anything. 538 00:24:05,760 --> 00:24:08,119 Speaker 5: But you've never done it. Okay, so you will not 539 00:24:08,119 --> 00:24:10,720 Speaker 5: get chipped at moment inside of. 540 00:24:10,600 --> 00:24:13,080 Speaker 4: The tooth to place a little chip in there. 541 00:24:13,200 --> 00:24:15,679 Speaker 3: Okay, so we've got one. Yes, that's actually true from 542 00:24:15,680 --> 00:24:17,360 Speaker 3: all the nonsense that I've read, and. 543 00:24:17,320 --> 00:24:19,600 Speaker 4: Then I think said possible. 544 00:24:19,440 --> 00:24:21,920 Speaker 3: Possible, Okay, it is possible that someone could do if 545 00:24:21,920 --> 00:24:23,840 Speaker 3: you say it's possible. In my head, it's happened like 546 00:24:23,960 --> 00:24:27,240 Speaker 3: a hundred times. So this is the one that's been burning, 547 00:24:27,400 --> 00:24:30,640 Speaker 3: I think on everyone's the burning question on everyone's mind. 548 00:24:31,160 --> 00:24:34,720 Speaker 3: Is it true that your dentist can tell if you've 549 00:24:34,720 --> 00:24:37,240 Speaker 3: been involved in naughty activity before you come? 550 00:24:38,640 --> 00:24:43,440 Speaker 5: It is true. I knew it. Okay, Yes, I have. 551 00:24:43,359 --> 00:24:45,919 Speaker 3: A dental a friend who's a dentist who said, yeah, totally. 552 00:24:46,000 --> 00:24:47,600 Speaker 3: There's what is a blood vessel at the top of 553 00:24:47,600 --> 00:24:48,000 Speaker 3: your mouth. 554 00:24:48,200 --> 00:24:51,480 Speaker 4: Yes, and it bursts, that's one. It doesn't burst, but 555 00:24:51,960 --> 00:24:55,360 Speaker 4: it's like a bruising effect. Basically, the force trauma can 556 00:24:55,400 --> 00:24:57,200 Speaker 4: cause rupturing of the vessels. 557 00:24:57,480 --> 00:25:00,320 Speaker 5: This sounds so dramatic. Force trauma and bruising. People are 558 00:25:00,320 --> 00:25:02,359 Speaker 5: having a good time, you know. 559 00:25:03,600 --> 00:25:10,639 Speaker 4: Yeah, trauma, right, the force, you're right, okay, So, and 560 00:25:10,720 --> 00:25:13,639 Speaker 4: that causes rupture of the blood vessels, but it doesn't 561 00:25:13,640 --> 00:25:18,440 Speaker 4: cause the rupture of the outer lining, so it's inside. 562 00:25:18,480 --> 00:25:19,680 Speaker 4: So that's why it looks dark. 563 00:25:20,000 --> 00:25:22,720 Speaker 5: Interesting, That is what bruising is. Are there other things 564 00:25:22,720 --> 00:25:23,520 Speaker 5: that can cause that? 565 00:25:24,960 --> 00:25:27,400 Speaker 4: None other than well it looks different if it can 566 00:25:27,560 --> 00:25:31,080 Speaker 4: be caused by thermal by hot like pizzas tuck to 567 00:25:31,119 --> 00:25:35,120 Speaker 4: the but it looks different. So that's I don't know 568 00:25:35,280 --> 00:25:40,560 Speaker 4: what object. You know, it's trauma, okay in a certain way. 569 00:25:40,680 --> 00:25:44,720 Speaker 4: And then there's also due to the friction of the 570 00:25:44,760 --> 00:25:48,280 Speaker 4: lower portion of the tongue against the cheese, that can 571 00:25:48,359 --> 00:25:53,400 Speaker 4: cause hyperpleasia. So you can see a line, white line 572 00:25:53,480 --> 00:25:58,359 Speaker 4: and a tongue like really hypercritosis is called hyper keratosis. 573 00:25:58,840 --> 00:25:59,960 Speaker 5: Is a white line on the tongue. 574 00:26:00,160 --> 00:26:01,800 Speaker 4: Yeah, due to friction against the cheek. 575 00:26:02,480 --> 00:26:04,720 Speaker 3: So you guys ever have a little chuckle after you leave, 576 00:26:04,800 --> 00:26:06,520 Speaker 3: like I know what was going on over there? No, 577 00:26:06,760 --> 00:26:08,840 Speaker 3: you just you just keep it to yourself. What a 578 00:26:08,840 --> 00:26:11,440 Speaker 3: good dentist. I feel like I would be like, Diamond, 579 00:26:11,760 --> 00:26:12,400 Speaker 3: listen to this. 580 00:26:12,840 --> 00:26:13,960 Speaker 5: How long does that last? 581 00:26:14,520 --> 00:26:15,880 Speaker 4: It goes away within the week. 582 00:26:16,119 --> 00:26:16,480 Speaker 5: A week? 583 00:26:16,880 --> 00:26:19,359 Speaker 3: Okay, So now everybody listening, give yourself a week before 584 00:26:19,400 --> 00:26:21,000 Speaker 3: you go to the dentist if you're doing something naughty 585 00:26:21,000 --> 00:26:25,760 Speaker 3: frictional hypercritosis, because it can happen. We were talking about 586 00:26:25,760 --> 00:26:27,240 Speaker 3: that before you came in, and Diamond was like, I 587 00:26:27,280 --> 00:26:28,360 Speaker 3: need to know if this. 588 00:26:28,359 --> 00:26:30,120 Speaker 5: Is actually true. I said, I think it is. 589 00:26:30,520 --> 00:26:32,360 Speaker 3: We're going to find out. So a lot of good 590 00:26:32,400 --> 00:26:37,040 Speaker 3: information here. If you had to tell somebody, hey, do 591 00:26:37,040 --> 00:26:39,439 Speaker 3: this one thing. It's very important for your mouth. What 592 00:26:39,560 --> 00:26:41,240 Speaker 3: is that thing? Is it flossing? Is it brushing? 593 00:26:41,359 --> 00:26:42,880 Speaker 5: Is it? 594 00:26:42,240 --> 00:26:47,040 Speaker 4: So? Basically a daily routine that I have is I 595 00:26:47,160 --> 00:26:50,840 Speaker 4: start by flushing my teeth every morning. Then I brush them. 596 00:26:51,080 --> 00:26:53,200 Speaker 5: Oh you fluss first, yes, okay. 597 00:26:53,280 --> 00:26:56,080 Speaker 4: So if there's any debris lift in between teeth, you 598 00:26:56,119 --> 00:26:58,320 Speaker 4: can then dislodge it and then the brush removes it. 599 00:26:58,400 --> 00:26:58,720 Speaker 5: Okay. 600 00:26:59,200 --> 00:27:01,840 Speaker 4: I do the unscraping, so that cannot be done with 601 00:27:01,880 --> 00:27:03,520 Speaker 4: a brush because that's just going to make a gig. 602 00:27:03,600 --> 00:27:07,600 Speaker 4: You have to have like a solid object to scrape. 603 00:27:08,840 --> 00:27:12,520 Speaker 4: And then once in a while I use arens. 604 00:27:12,840 --> 00:27:14,800 Speaker 5: Once in a while, so not every time you brush. 605 00:27:15,440 --> 00:27:18,440 Speaker 4: Day, okay, and then no matter how well you brush, 606 00:27:18,480 --> 00:27:22,880 Speaker 4: I do see my hygienist. I see him every four months, Okay. 607 00:27:22,960 --> 00:27:27,000 Speaker 4: I like that. Yeah, and that's all. That's how you're 608 00:27:27,040 --> 00:27:28,800 Speaker 4: going to keep your teeth as long as you're alive. 609 00:27:28,960 --> 00:27:30,840 Speaker 5: So it's pretty easy. Just keep up with the dentist 610 00:27:30,920 --> 00:27:32,119 Speaker 5: and you'll probably be okay. 611 00:27:32,320 --> 00:27:33,320 Speaker 4: Yes, that's basically. 612 00:27:34,400 --> 00:27:37,760 Speaker 3: My dentist caught that I had high blood pressure and 613 00:27:37,960 --> 00:27:39,760 Speaker 3: I had no idea because I was going to get 614 00:27:39,760 --> 00:27:41,480 Speaker 3: my wisdom teeth taken out. So you're taking my blood 615 00:27:41,480 --> 00:27:44,240 Speaker 3: pressure and he said, oh, your blood pressure is pretty high. 616 00:27:44,240 --> 00:27:46,280 Speaker 3: And it turned out that it was from my birth 617 00:27:46,320 --> 00:27:49,240 Speaker 3: control because I was healthy and there was really nothing 618 00:27:49,240 --> 00:27:51,919 Speaker 3: else going on. So then because my dentists found that, 619 00:27:52,240 --> 00:27:55,880 Speaker 3: I was able to get on a counterpill for that. 620 00:27:56,640 --> 00:27:58,560 Speaker 3: Now I just was it's much better for me to 621 00:27:58,560 --> 00:28:00,280 Speaker 3: just not take it because that birth control was well. 622 00:28:00,320 --> 00:28:02,560 Speaker 3: But my dentist caught that. So you guys see a 623 00:28:02,600 --> 00:28:03,320 Speaker 3: lot and do a lot. 624 00:28:03,440 --> 00:28:06,280 Speaker 4: Yeah, we do check blood pressure as a standard of 625 00:28:06,320 --> 00:28:09,119 Speaker 4: care before we do any injection. And obviously in the 626 00:28:09,119 --> 00:28:11,879 Speaker 4: first visit and the first visit, it's not definitive if 627 00:28:11,920 --> 00:28:14,040 Speaker 4: you once had a blood pressure because you walked to 628 00:28:14,160 --> 00:28:16,919 Speaker 4: the chair or something. But if you repeatedly see that 629 00:28:17,000 --> 00:28:19,239 Speaker 4: it's high blood pressure, you want to bring it up 630 00:28:19,240 --> 00:28:20,280 Speaker 4: to the patient's attention. 631 00:28:20,480 --> 00:28:22,240 Speaker 3: Have you ever had to call nine one one because 632 00:28:22,280 --> 00:28:24,280 Speaker 3: you saw something inside someone's mouth and you're like, oh, 633 00:28:24,359 --> 00:28:25,239 Speaker 3: I can't take care of this. 634 00:28:25,880 --> 00:28:31,240 Speaker 4: No, luckily, Okay, so you've had pretty good Have anybody 635 00:28:31,400 --> 00:28:33,159 Speaker 4: carried out our office yet?

And just to 674 00:30:11,280 --> 00:30:14,680 Speaker 4: make a fun experience and make patients like coming to 675 00:30:14,680 --> 00:30:16,680 Speaker 4: a dentist, which is how it should be, because the 676 00:30:16,760 --> 00:30:20,320 Speaker 4: dentist is there to help people live a better healthier life. 677 00:30:20,400 --> 00:30:21,520 Speaker 4: That's what we're there for. 678 00:30:21,800 --> 00:30:24,920 Speaker 5: Your teeth are very important to your health or an. 679 00:30:24,840 --> 00:30:27,120 Speaker 4: Often times you don't know you have an issue and 680 00:30:27,160 --> 00:30:31,200 Speaker 4: by the time you find out, it's already super expensive. 681 00:30:31,240 --> 00:30:33,640 Speaker 4: So one of the main reasons, well, there's few reasons 682 00:30:33,680 --> 00:30:36,080 Speaker 4: why patients don't like to go to a dentists. One 683 00:30:36,280 --> 00:30:39,680 Speaker 4: is pains. We already talked about that. Second, you just 684 00:30:40,000 --> 00:30:42,880 Speaker 4: mentioned a little bit about the people with insurance or 685 00:30:42,920 --> 00:30:45,640 Speaker 4: without insurance. So a lot of my patients they make 686 00:30:45,680 --> 00:30:48,480 Speaker 4: a mistake of thinking that if they lose their insurance, 687 00:30:48,600 --> 00:30:52,680 Speaker 4: they shouldn't go to a dentists. So, like I said earlier, 688 00:30:52,720 --> 00:30:55,560 Speaker 4: bacteria doesn't know whether you have insurance or not. So 689 00:30:55,800 --> 00:30:58,720 Speaker 4: bacteria is going to take this cavity that could be 690 00:30:58,800 --> 00:31:01,400 Speaker 4: handled with two hundred dollars and it's going to proceed 691 00:31:01,440 --> 00:31:04,200 Speaker 4: into the nerve. And as bacteria gets into the nerve 692 00:31:04,360 --> 00:31:08,720 Speaker 4: through the canal, it starts infecting the surrounding bone. So 693 00:31:08,880 --> 00:31:12,520 Speaker 4: to prevent all that, a filling will suffice. If you 694 00:31:12,560 --> 00:31:15,080 Speaker 4: don't go regularly because you think you have no insurance 695 00:31:15,080 --> 00:31:17,120 Speaker 4: and you can't afford two hundred dollars. Now it gets 696 00:31:17,160 --> 00:31:19,959 Speaker 4: to the root canal, which is over one thousand. Then 697 00:31:20,000 --> 00:31:22,360 Speaker 4: you need a Postcore, and then you need a Crown. 698 00:31:22,440 --> 00:31:26,080 Speaker 4: So now it's three thousand dollars. So now when patients 699 00:31:26,080 --> 00:31:28,600 Speaker 4: don't have insurance, they hold off, they wait for about 700 00:31:28,680 --> 00:31:31,200 Speaker 4: five to ten years. Finally they get this insurance. They 701 00:31:31,200 --> 00:31:35,400 Speaker 4: come in and now there's not one filling, not two fillings, 702 00:31:35,640 --> 00:31:38,239 Speaker 4: and now you have root canal here, Postcore Crown, root 703 00:31:38,280 --> 00:31:41,040 Speaker 4: cannout here, Postcore Crown. So with your insurance, you end 704 00:31:41,120 --> 00:31:43,600 Speaker 4: up paying thousands of dollars for something that could have 705 00:31:43,680 --> 00:31:47,160 Speaker 4: been prevented with a two hundred dollars filling without insurance. 706 00:31:47,520 --> 00:31:49,400 Speaker 4: So I always tell my patients if you know somebody 707 00:31:49,400 --> 00:31:51,560 Speaker 4: who have no insurance, it doesn't mean they shouldn't go. 708 00:31:51,680 --> 00:31:54,680 Speaker 4: In fact, that's the reason to go. So you can 709 00:31:54,720 --> 00:31:58,520 Speaker 4: take this two hundred dollars investment and prevent three thousand 710 00:31:58,600 --> 00:32:02,560 Speaker 4: dollars worth of work. I multiply that by twenty eight 711 00:32:02,560 --> 00:32:06,760 Speaker 4: teeth that becomes expensive. So now the dentistry is expensive 712 00:32:06,800 --> 00:32:10,440 Speaker 4: because people haven't been going regularly. But when they do go, 713 00:32:10,560 --> 00:32:13,560 Speaker 4: they have an unpleasant experience which causes them not to go. 714 00:32:13,880 --> 00:32:18,680 Speaker 4: So it's kind of becomes this vicious cycles. By making 715 00:32:18,720 --> 00:32:22,960 Speaker 4: people feel comfortable in our office, we're encouraging them to 716 00:32:23,040 --> 00:32:26,560 Speaker 4: come in. So you could absolutely have all your teeth 717 00:32:26,560 --> 00:32:29,560 Speaker 4: when you're a hundred years old. Absolutely good to know. 718 00:32:29,640 --> 00:32:31,239 Speaker 5: That is my plan. I would like to have all 719 00:32:31,240 --> 00:32:32,840 Speaker 5: of my teeth when I'm a hundred. I would also 720 00:32:32,880 --> 00:32:34,400 Speaker 5: like to be a hundred. So we have a. 721 00:32:36,200 --> 00:32:38,920 Speaker 4: Grandma made it to a hundred. I wasn't a dentist 722 00:32:38,960 --> 00:32:40,600 Speaker 4: when she was younger, so she didn't have all of 723 00:32:40,600 --> 00:32:43,240 Speaker 4: her teeth, but she did have all of her teeth 724 00:32:43,680 --> 00:32:45,840 Speaker 4: since I became a dentist when I was left, I 725 00:32:46,360 --> 00:32:47,520 Speaker 4: managed to keep it for her. 726 00:32:47,760 --> 00:32:50,000 Speaker 3: Oh okay, okay, last question, I keep saying, last question 727 00:32:50,040 --> 00:32:52,320 Speaker 3: asking you one more thing. What are your thoughts on 728 00:32:52,600 --> 00:32:55,320 Speaker 3: people leaving the country to go get veneers? Do you 729 00:32:55,360 --> 00:32:57,760 Speaker 3: think veneers are a better option than just braces and 730 00:32:57,800 --> 00:32:58,440 Speaker 3: in visiline? 731 00:32:58,840 --> 00:33:03,640 Speaker 4: I think that's all so each case dependent. So in 732 00:33:03,680 --> 00:33:06,760 Speaker 4: some cases we are able to take your natural teeth, 733 00:33:07,040 --> 00:33:09,320 Speaker 4: put it in a perfect place, do a little whitening, 734 00:33:09,320 --> 00:33:12,160 Speaker 4: and it looks way better than vine years. So in 735 00:33:12,200 --> 00:33:15,880 Speaker 4: my particular opinion, ven years, I wouldn't go with that 736 00:33:15,960 --> 00:33:18,960 Speaker 4: as my number one option. I would take natural teeth 737 00:33:19,400 --> 00:33:22,120 Speaker 4: and see what we can do with that, and oftentimes 738 00:33:22,160 --> 00:33:25,560 Speaker 4: with in viziline and widening, we can make it look really, 739 00:33:25,920 --> 00:33:30,680 Speaker 4: really pleasant. If patients need vine years, meaning if they 740 00:33:30,720 --> 00:33:36,360 Speaker 4: already had some work done that or their teeth naturally dark, 741 00:33:36,680 --> 00:33:39,480 Speaker 4: then maybe ven years are better option. So with ven years, 742 00:33:39,920 --> 00:33:42,640 Speaker 4: you're not covering the entire tooth, so there is a 743 00:33:42,680 --> 00:33:46,760 Speaker 4: possibility that veneer can dislodge. It doesn't happen often, so 744 00:33:46,800 --> 00:33:49,120 Speaker 4: you obviously want to be close to your dentist. You know, 745 00:33:49,160 --> 00:33:52,600 Speaker 4: it's everybody's choice. I'm not competing with anybody. I'm there 746 00:33:52,640 --> 00:33:54,960 Speaker 4: to help whoever wants to be helped. We do with 747 00:33:55,040 --> 00:33:57,680 Speaker 4: do veneyears too, but that's not my first choice. 748 00:33:58,840 --> 00:33:59,200 Speaker 5: Gotcha. 749 00:34:00,080 --> 00:34:01,600 Speaker 3: So if you want to leave anybody with a piece 750 00:34:01,640 --> 00:34:04,600 Speaker 3: of advice about their mouth, yes, what is what is 751 00:34:04,600 --> 00:34:06,120 Speaker 3: your advice to or less rush. 752 00:34:05,880 --> 00:34:08,160 Speaker 4: Your teeth, Floss your teeth, see your dentists, and you 753 00:34:08,160 --> 00:34:09,960 Speaker 4: will have your teeth as long as your life. 754 00:34:10,040 --> 00:34:11,960 Speaker 5: What is the number one cause of bad breath? 755 00:34:12,440 --> 00:34:16,920 Speaker 4: Bacteria? We're dealing with the bacteria. Okay, think about it 756 00:34:16,960 --> 00:34:20,279 Speaker 4: this way. So if if you if you take any 757 00:34:20,360 --> 00:34:22,760 Speaker 4: any food anything, and you put it in a warm, 758 00:34:22,960 --> 00:34:25,920 Speaker 4: moist environment, it starts to gkay. And that's why when 759 00:34:25,920 --> 00:34:29,920 Speaker 4: you go to near garbage, there's a certain smell to it, right, 760 00:34:29,960 --> 00:34:33,480 Speaker 4: it's they So where can bacteria hide? First of all, 761 00:34:34,320 --> 00:34:37,200 Speaker 4: sometimes it hides behind the last molar. If the wisdom 762 00:34:37,200 --> 00:34:38,920 Speaker 4: teeth came in on the side, there is like a 763 00:34:39,000 --> 00:34:41,400 Speaker 4: trap for the food. So if the food is strapped 764 00:34:41,400 --> 00:34:43,239 Speaker 4: in one spot, is going to sit there and it's 765 00:34:43,239 --> 00:34:47,359 Speaker 4: going to omit a smell. Second area where this can 766 00:34:47,400 --> 00:34:50,160 Speaker 4: happen if the tooth is let's say, have broken or 767 00:34:50,239 --> 00:34:51,880 Speaker 4: has a big hole in it, like a cavity, and 768 00:34:51,920 --> 00:34:55,960 Speaker 4: bacteria sits in there and foods particle gets stuck in there. Bacteria, 769 00:34:56,600 --> 00:34:59,200 Speaker 4: you know, breaks it down for its own energy, and 770 00:34:59,239 --> 00:35:04,040 Speaker 4: it's on food and creates smell cavities. The other area 771 00:35:04,080 --> 00:35:08,280 Speaker 4: where bacteria can gather is between There's like a trench 772 00:35:08,320 --> 00:35:10,960 Speaker 4: that goes around each tooth. It's called periodental pocket. It's 773 00:35:10,960 --> 00:35:13,799 Speaker 4: the space between the gum and the tooth, and that's 774 00:35:13,840 --> 00:35:16,560 Speaker 4: where most of bacteria is sitting. And if it's sitting 775 00:35:16,640 --> 00:35:20,200 Speaker 4: there and patients don't go to dentists regularly, this bacteria 776 00:35:20,280 --> 00:35:23,000 Speaker 4: gathers and it grows more of itself, and there's some 777 00:35:23,239 --> 00:35:27,799 Speaker 4: order that's coming out of periodental pocket peridental space. So 778 00:35:28,120 --> 00:35:31,640 Speaker 4: sometimes I actually walk in a plane and people are 779 00:35:31,680 --> 00:35:34,759 Speaker 4: sleeping like this with their mouth open, and I walk 780 00:35:34,800 --> 00:35:37,440 Speaker 4: by the row and I walk and oh that's perio, 781 00:35:37,560 --> 00:35:40,560 Speaker 4: and I walk, Oh that's perio. It has a certain 782 00:35:40,640 --> 00:35:43,799 Speaker 4: smell to it, and perio means that those pockets in 783 00:35:43,840 --> 00:35:47,879 Speaker 4: those patients are bigger than normal. So normally it's two 784 00:35:47,880 --> 00:35:51,680 Speaker 4: to three millimeters, if the pockets are seven eight millimeters, 785 00:35:51,760 --> 00:35:54,319 Speaker 4: Now you have this huge trench that goes around each 786 00:35:54,480 --> 00:36:01,120 Speaker 4: tooth that contains this sewer basically material that smells. So 787 00:36:01,160 --> 00:36:03,440 Speaker 4: when you walk by, you're like, oh, I can smell that. 788 00:36:03,560 --> 00:36:06,360 Speaker 4: Oh that's period. That means their pocket is much bigger 789 00:36:06,400 --> 00:36:11,399 Speaker 4: than every healthy people. Also, our tongue has popillis these 790 00:36:11,400 --> 00:36:15,799 Speaker 4: little bumps, and when plaq gets accumulated around those, that 791 00:36:16,040 --> 00:36:17,399 Speaker 4: creates bad bread. 792 00:36:17,760 --> 00:36:19,440 Speaker 5: Black accumulated on your tongue. 793 00:36:19,560 --> 00:36:21,600 Speaker 4: Well, if you take a tongue scrape and you scrape, 794 00:36:21,600 --> 00:36:24,160 Speaker 4: you will see so much black on it that causes 795 00:36:24,200 --> 00:36:28,399 Speaker 4: bad breath. So in order of what brings more bad bread, 796 00:36:29,080 --> 00:36:32,000 Speaker 4: so it's pear of disease, tongue scraping, and then if 797 00:36:32,000 --> 00:36:35,120 Speaker 4: there's a cavity that that can trap foods. So those 798 00:36:35,120 --> 00:36:36,480 Speaker 4: are your bad bread You. 799 00:36:36,480 --> 00:36:41,880 Speaker 3: Ever tell people like hey, I smell a little little periodon't. 800 00:36:40,880 --> 00:36:42,400 Speaker 4: I tell him? I show them on the screen. 801 00:36:42,680 --> 00:36:44,759 Speaker 5: That's what I know. But like people, your patients, if 802 00:36:44,800 --> 00:36:45,920 Speaker 5: you like when you get on a plane and you 803 00:36:45,960 --> 00:36:47,480 Speaker 5: see that, you're like, hey man. 804 00:36:47,400 --> 00:36:51,560 Speaker 2: It's probably of course, but also I would want it, 805 00:36:51,640 --> 00:36:53,600 Speaker 2: Like if somebody noticed something like that on me, I 806 00:36:53,640 --> 00:36:54,879 Speaker 2: would I would want to know it. 807 00:36:54,920 --> 00:36:56,000 Speaker 5: So, okay, good to know. 808 00:36:56,239 --> 00:36:58,080 Speaker 3: But did you were you happy when people were wearing 809 00:36:58,080 --> 00:36:59,520 Speaker 3: masks that you didn't have to walk around and smell? 810 00:37:00,560 --> 00:37:02,000 Speaker 5: That had to be a good time.
