Milkeno Posted April 29 (edited) I have bad hygiene especially when it comes to my teeth and my teeth have been hurting alot recently, I have alot of problems with my teeth that can mostly be fixed by brushing but there is one that isn't so clear to me, de-calcification. I've looked at alot of things online and it says dentists have their own like chems they put on the tooth and then do other weird stuff to stop it but I don't trust dentists because 1. there's literally fluoride in toothpaste and 2. capitalists will always prey on the people who are weak (you see this with children's media and the entire medical industrial complex). Does anyone know how to fix de-calcification as someone who does not want to see a doctor? Edited April 29 by Milkeno 0 Share this post Link to post
VICE Posted April 29 (edited) Himalayan Sea Salt. Use it instead of regular salt, it has a diverse mineral profile and can help close any mineral gaps in your diet, including calcium. Also try to eat more high quality dairy, like whole milk. I also heard people recommend swishing himalayan salt with warm water to recalcify teeth, but never had an issue with this myself so the most I can say is ''look into it''. Side note: Labeling yourself as a anything-cel will get you nowhere in life and keep you stuck there. Edited April 29 by VICE 6 Share this post Link to post
Baron T. Mueriach Posted April 29 There is no way I'm reading a dental health inquiry on the Doomworld forums. Also it's no surprise to me that the person with God-awful hygiene is also the person who bitches about capitalism whilst they live and thrive in a capitalist society... lol. People will find anything to complain about. So in short, go to a dentist, take a shower, grow a social network, and log off for a while. That's genuine advice, I promise if you do this you'll start enjoying this life a lot more. 35 Share this post Link to post

For every person that "lives and thrives" in a capitalist society there's ten more who are completely miserable thanks to it. 18 Share this post Link to post

mrthejoshmon Posted April 29 (edited) Did you know that, whilst you are supposed to spit out excessive foam and spit after brushing, you are not supposed to rinse your mouth out afterwards? It is a trope that TV and movies accidentally told you to do, you aren't supposed to do that, also visit a dentist, they will set you on the right path. There's also hard and soft water. Hard water contains much more minerals which are theorised to contribute to teeth health due to the presence of said minerals, the teeth seem to form a film that facilitates plaque build up. It is often a point of contention, it isn't universally agreed upon that hard water does much in terms of dental hygiene and studies show it might be minimal at best. What I'm saying is get a water softener if you are paranoid from the knowledge I have inflicted upon ye. Eat calcium rich food, don't drink as much fizzy or sugary drinks (like monster, yes I can already tell), wash your whole mouth, use a floride based toothpaste or a mineral toothpaste (when losing your enamel it will never return, you can only improve what is left)... Another tip is to not refer to yourself as a femcel, that never achieves anything good ever. Edited April 29 by mrthejoshmon 16 Share this post Link to post

TheMagicMushroomMan Posted April 29 (edited) I don't want to do any of this political talk, it's pointless. Go to the dentist or you will be miserable. I am missing most of my molars at 29 years old due to neglecting my dental health from the time I was 12-21 years old and exacerbated by drug use. My thought process was "why bother when I'm probably going to kill myself anyway". Now it's more like "this pain makes me want to kill myself". The pain will only get worse. Wait until you're dealing with multiple infected and broken teeth, abcesses on your gums and in the roots of your teeth, not being able to eat anything that isn't pudding. Wait until you talk with a lisp because of your missing teeth, wait until you look in the mirror and realize your mouth droops to the side when you shut your mouth. Wait until your face swells like you've been beat. Wait until your gums bleed constantly due to gingivitis. Wait until your dentist hands you your dentures or your partials, and wait until you feel like a complete idiot buying denture cleaner and paste from an aisle in the store that's meant for senior citizens. Look at pictures of what having no teeth does to your jawbone and know that you'll look just like that if you keep neglecting yourself. Wait until you see a cute girl, and then remember that your breath probably smells like dogshit. And when you do find a girl, wait until you have to tell her your teeth aren't real. I can tell you that getting nine of my teeth removed was nothing compared to the pain caused by any one of those things. Go to the dentist. If you hate capitalism, go to a chairty place that does volunteer work. That's what I had to do. Your cavitities will not heal just because you start brushing your teeth, they will only get worse until your teeth are repaired or removed. Get toothpaste without fluoride in it if you're that paranoid. Use some baking soda. You're smart enough to figure it out. What you are doing is absolute grade A stupidity, and I have no problem telling you that because I was just as stupid. Your excuses are just that, excuses. If you don't want to suffer physically and mentally, do something about it now. I'm telling you, straight up, your thought process is really stupid and you're fucking up your life, setting yourself up for more depression. And let's be real, you aren't too happy about yourself if you're not even taking care of your hygiene. Looking at your other posts, it seems that the main problem is that you're just still immature. That's to be expected, you're 16 years old. But it's time to grow up and take care of yourself. Now or never. Cut the shit about being a good hostess to parasites. By the time you're 18, you're going to look back on that and cringe. There's nothing cool about not taking care of yourself. You'll only be reminded of how weak you were when you look in the mirror a few years from now. Otherwise, you'll hate capitalism and the "entire medical industrial complex" even more when the hospital foots you with a $5,000 bill over something you could have prevented yourself.

Which one is more worth it? Your hygiene or some random dude's conspiracy theory? This doesn't even need to be said. Brush your teeth, have proper hygiene, and go to a dentist unless you want to be a people deflector. 7 Share this post Link to post
maxmanium Posted April 29 My dentist has noted decalcification in my teeth for quite a while now. He doesn't really make a big deal out of it other than the typical brushing and whatnot. So I don't think it's a big deal if you are still taking care of your teeth. But I know how hard it is to keep a consistent dental routine. 1 Share this post Link to post

Mueriach said: Also it's no surprise to me that the person with God-awful hygiene is also the person who bitches about capitalism whilst they live and thrive in a capitalist society... lol This is the stupidest argument someone can make. An economic system exists by force, there's no choice here. Asking someone to not live in the capitalist system is the same as wishing him to die. And you don't have any right to ostracize anyone because of it. That said, OP: take care of your health and hygiene. There's no contradiction in going to medical institutes, because that's what we have. You need to go because negating it will be A LOT worse for you. It's a matter of survival, put that in your head.

oneselfSelf Posted April 29 Yeah that's cool and all but you should really brush your teeth and stop making everything so complicated for yourself. You should shower too, if your self-proclaimed title of "femcel" at age 16 as any real weight to it. 3 Share this post Link to post

DoomPlayer00 Posted April 29 Didn't think something as important as oral hygiene could be considered a political issue/conspiracy. Then again, given OP's age I really hope that this is more of a poor attempt at getting attention or a troll post rather than a serious one. 5 Share this post Link to post
DNSKILL5 Posted April 29 Sounds like you have severe depression and looks like you’ve got a few armchair therapist from DW at your disposal. That’s not going to do you much good though but to each their own. 0 Share this post Link to post
⇛Marnetmar⇛ Posted April 29 (edited) I'm a little extremely fucking alarmed at how dismissive some of the responses here are. Potential TW if anyone needs it: Spoiler For some perspective: I was physically neglected and isolated growing up and spent a good deal of my own life in the foster care system. Many of the life skills that you all take for granted, because you had parents or a support system to teach you, are ones that I had to teach myself. That's all behind me and I'm a reasonably well adjusted adult now, but my point here is: if I was still young and nobody had intervened on my behalf I could easily see myself making a post similar to OP. Does this thread make you, the reader, uncomfortable? Tough shit princess, take a good, long look at it -- this is the reality that some people live in that we as a society have decided to conveniently sweep under the rug. OP: I know the idea scares you but please, go see a dentist. The rest of you can afford to shut your goddamn mouths for just one single thread.

Major Arlene Posted April 29 honestly, I'm not going to sit here and try to psychoanalyze you, but I'm going to be blunt and tell you that tooth infections can literally kill you, which infection is likely what's happening if your teeth are hurting. go see a dentist. even if it's just like, once, do something to take charge of your health (capitalism also wants you poor, uneducated and unhealthy to make you a weaker victim). 5 Share this post Link to post
Blzut3 Posted April 29 2 hours ago, TheMagicMushroomMan said: Get toothpaste without fluoride in it if you're that paranoid. I can't quite tell if the OP is against flouride or just suggesting that flouride toothpaste should be enough, but if the former: seriously it may be time to question if the people spreading this paranoia are just as bad as the "capitalists." Fun anecdote, so most dental insurance only covers flouride treatments during childhood, so of course come adulthood I stopped getting them. A couple years later I started developing sensitivity to sweets and cold, and of course had antisensitivity toothpaste recommended to me. Can't say it did much and after some time I thought I may as well try flouride rinse and see what happens. Things started returning back to normal, and I then found out that flouride treatment at my dentist was like $20. Been getting it done ever since and my sensitivity problem has gone away. It could certainly be placebo, but it seems to be working well for me. 6 Share this post Link to post

Kinsie Posted April 29 We should probably have a blanket "None of us are qualified to give medical advice on the internet, we're just a bunch of nerds who hack a decades-old videogame. See a professional, dipshit" rule in stone, since this is apparently no longer something so wordlessly understood that it doesn't need to be said out loud. 13 Share this post Link to post
