Im not even sure the cheep crap works at all. I know some brands i would never use again, rashes, swellings, itches, red blotches. Cheapest I've found that actually does good is Olay and its not really cheap.

I doubt it. I was using the cheap stuff, basically the same stuff my mom uses (and they're petroleum based). I went from using gallons of lotion in vein trying to keep my hands moist and repair my finger tips that cracked from being so dry, to small amounts being sufficient. And upon switching, my cracked fingertips were healed within a couple days.
Amd they've made my skin soft, so there is that bonus.

This afternoon i went to the dentist for a checkup. I rarely have tooth problems, three cavities and one cracked eating a walnut and that's 40 some years of tooth use.

So today mr dentist had a good look and prod about then took x-rays. I have a cavity, he couldn't see it because its in between two molars. Not only can't he see it, he can't get to it to fill.

He was surprised i was not in pain and guaranteed that i would be soon. He gave me the choice, now or when the pain starts.

I think I've had enough pain for at least 5 lifetimes so no more if i can help it, do it now.

Can't fix the cavity without removing a tooth to get to it, the only other alternative, remove the nerve, cavity remains and will get worse over time but (the magic but) no pain.

So after drilling down to my boots, pulling the nerve, job done.

Sorry to hear all this. My dentist visit went well, no problems...of course at least 8 of my teeth are already crowns

I am kind if disappointed Clarice tales place a year after that. I was hoping it would pick up where Silence of the Lamb left off, preferably with season 1 basically being Silence of the Lamb into a mini series.

Its nothing to be sorry about, better done now than later and having to wait a month for an appointment while in pain. But thanks

Could be worse....British dentistry.

The truly ironic thing is they have better teeth than America.

It seems the writers wanted it to be
about the long term effect on her.

Where they suffer is in orthodontia.

Seems that way. I do wonder if this show will overlap into the Hannibal story. This Clarice and the last guy to play Hannibal deserve some shared screen time together

They just look worse because we don't go so much for cosmetic dentistry

I want to try this trick on @columbus if he ever returns.

My mom said absolutely do not do that to my dad because he will die of a heart attack.

Try it on my brother.
Heart attack would be just fine.

Took an old friend to the doctor.
Friend: "Give it to me straight, doc."
Doc: "Well, you have cancer, & it's very advanced."
Friend: "Dang, anything else?"
Doc: "You also have dementia."
Friend; "Well at least I don't have cancer."
