easy remedies for tooth pain - going flavorless and technique

Tue 2024 Sep 17

If you have tooth pain every time you brush or floss and there is not any immediate dental work you need, it's bad brushing technique and the wrong toothpaste and floss that's the problem. Probably.

I have had a lot of dental work done over the years. Crowns, root canals (yes, plural), fillings, and so on. But even with all that work done and not needing any more for the time being, I would still sometimes feel pain during brushing and flossing.

Tue 2024 Aug 27

Recently, I had an oil change done for my car. Of course, the shop I went to tried to get me to waste money on air filters. Yes, plural. One for the air box in the engine bay and the other for the cabin. The shop said they were dirty. I didn't believe them.

A few days later, I inspected the filters myself. Turns out the shop was right and they were dirty. Since filters are easy to change, I did it myself...
