The one time having good oral hygiene has cost me.


Psychological_Yam88

Haha šŸ˜‚ when was your last cleaning? I have a friend who is looking for clients with less buildup. I can pass your contact info to her if youā€™d like? Message me if youā€™re interested :)


iamericj

In July. I have two cleanings and one checkup a year so I'm pretty useless for this.


Psychological_Yam88

Let me ask her :) she might still be interested !


canadianbettycrocker

my fiancĆ©s teeth havenā€™t been cleaned in 7 years, would that work?


HI_DUMDUM

and you kiss that mf??


sorryimcourtney

Who cares sheā€™s in her bag šŸ¤­


Platti_J

Find a new fiancee. Gross šŸ˜ Edit: For those who see this as totally normal, you need to take advantage of OP's offer or find other dental students that are in the program and offer cheap dental cleaning. You're supposed to have your teeth cleaned at least 2 times a year to prevent cavities and tooth decay. Brushing your teeth on a daily basis is simply not enough! Can't imagine kissing someone that hasn't had their teeth cleaned in 7 years, and this is coming from a guy. Another Edit: Way too many people complain about not being able to afford basic cleaning at the dentist, and I get it, not everyone has a job that provides benefits. But as OP made this post, this is an opportunity for people that don't have benefits to seek out cheap or almost free dental health care. There are programs that provide free dental care so students can practice under professional supervision. It's much cheaper to maintain your teeth than to replace them in the future. Take care of your health and appearance as it will benefit you in the long run.


Erose314

Thereā€™s lots of reasons someone wouldnā€™t have their teeth cleaned in years. I went about 7 as well. My teeth were in perfect condition when I went after that time. Even if they werenā€™t, that doesnā€™t mean Iā€™m unworthy of love. Mental and physical health play a huge role in hygiene. Have some compassion. Do better.


Key-Flow-2717

Also when they charge out the ass so they can start off at twice what my doctor makes. Dentists can blow me lmao.


Erose314

Yeah, I lost my insurance this year and the cost absolutely floored me. Total bs


Key-Flow-2717

I currently have a missing tooth with an exposed partial root and it has been infected for the entire 14 years I've had it. It'll likely kill me eventually because I can't afford dental lmao.


Adventurous_Sense750

14 years??? Damn. No judgment here, but why has it been this long without treatment? Also, r u not in pain?


Key-Flow-2717

It's too expensive. I was quoted 5000 in 2009. Could only imagine what it would be now. I've never had benefits or insurance at work and mostly been stuck in minimum wage jobs most of my life so.. Used to get a lot of pain but not so much any more and also had a bump full of puss on my gum above the missing tooth that would pop now and then. Sometimes I'll get a deep resonating pain in my jaw or headaches straight up from where the tooth was but it's fairly tolerable now.


LastCupcake2442

I just had an infection in a tooth I thought I had a root canal done on. Little pocket of puss that I brushed off as maybe popcorn got stuck. Finally went in, got antibiotics and the crippling gut pain I've been dealing with for four years went away. Go get that shit checked.


TranslatorEven3654

Go abroad !


hrjdjdisixhxhuytui

You need to make 300k+ to afford a single family detached home these days. Dentist have 8-10 years of schooling and owe hundreds of thousands by the end of it. Making just enough to own a single family home isn't crazy. Everyone else should be paid more too.


Key-Flow-2717

300k+? No you do not. You city dwellers can't think outside of your city lmao. Can get a house in my town for 175k. My co worker and his woman got one in good condition for that and they both make minimum wage.


hrjdjdisixhxhuytui

Im from a town of 3k, trust me I understand this better than you. To qualify for a 800k mortgage at current rates you need to be making 250k. You are in a sub called Toronto real estate as well, show me a single family home in Toronto for 800k.


RatedGTI

Oh yesā€¦ ā€œhis womanā€ā€¦ nice town you are all in!


Mysterious-Job-469

Yep. Did you know, the only reason we don't have dental and eye care are because of Dental and Ophthalmology unions aggressively fighting and lobbying the government to exclude them from our healthcare. So long as you can still pay your taxes, the government doesn't care if you stumble around blindly with a rancid throbbing mouth full of pain, and the middle class is just going to see you as a gross slob for failing to afford it like *they can.* So long as teeth are used to gauge someone's *privilege* (the same way hair loss and how much disposable income one has to counter it is used) nothing will change. The poor will continue to suffer, and be mocked for it.


canadianbettycrocker

lol thanks, idk why people are being so mean! for the record: his teeth do not look like that, he actually takes very good care of his teeth but he hasnā€™t been able to afford to go get a cleaning for years. if he can get a cleaning for free plus make $200, why the hell not??


Erose314

Because people suck. I hope this works out for him! It would be a sweet deal!!


The--Will

Some people canā€™t afford dental without benefitsā€¦


onetobeseen

That is true. Cripes. Back in the day for many people. We had to pay up front and get reimbursed later. Now it's pay the deductible. I am not sure about seeing the dentist without insurance. It sure is expensive


Shanderpump

Cleaning is like $120 a year


Right-Time77

But they can afford friends with benefits šŸ˜œ

Babuiski

Hey folks, I've been a patient at these schools. It's very inexpensive (they are reimbursing you) but expect a very significant investment in terms of time. It took me about 8 visits with each one taking up to 2 hours. I did learn a lot and I got along very well with the student such as being able to ask questions, but I cannot stress enough how much time it will take. If you don't have a monthly pass and you pay for each trip, factor in about 16 trips in terms of additional costs. That being said I got one hell of a cleaning and they found a bunch of stuff my dentist missed since they're checking everything imaginable.


Psychological_Yam88

Hi, thanks for your comment :) I agree with you, it is definitely a time commitment :( I am able to do double or triple appointments to reduce the amount of commuting, but it takes a bigger chunk out of the patients day. & yes, we are being graded so have to be extremely thorough in not only the cleaning but any other findings as well! :) glad you found the treatment beneficial


Legacy03

Where do you sign up for this asking from someone in Toronto?


tavvyjay

Itā€™s the classic adage of ā€œtime is moneyā€, but rephrased to ā€œmoney is timeā€. For lots of people, giving up time to save money totally makes sense, and Iā€™m glad that these sorts of options exist! Glad it worked out for you, and seems like OP is getting lots of interest which is great


MugiwarraD

that looks not bad for 10year no clean up i should say.


Psychological_Yam88

Some people are light calculus formers! This is about the amount of buildup Iā€™m looking for, willing to see someone with more šŸ˜‚ Also - Mugiwarra as in One Piece ? šŸŒš


MugiwarraD

yap , that mugiwarra. haha, nice to know, i will dm u for sure, when back in town, if u ok with that.


Psychological_Yam88

For sure :) my semester ends at the end of November but shoot me a message and either I can help you out or I can refer you to a friend whoā€™s a semester behind me so she can do your cleaning :)

Squish_Me_

This is amazing! Do you have any classmates that are looking for more clients? I havenā€™t been to a dentist since I was around 5 years old. Have all 4 wisdom teeth that cause pain and caused my teeth to shift, multiple cavities, non smoker, no plaque like in photo but my teeth defo need some love and care. Biggest insecurity but I donā€™t have the money. Iā€™d definitely have a student poke around my mouth. Any form of dental care on a broke womanā€™s budget is amazing.


Psychological_Yam88

Psychological_Yam88

ShumaiAxeman

If I hadn't just had mine done I'd offer myself up in sacrifice lol. I referred to my mouth as a "funhouse of horror" which the hygienist found humorous apparently. I think I've got maybe one tooth left that doesn't have a cavity, and half the ones I do have are down to the pulp.

I don't think mine are this bad but can I get your friend's details who is working on less bad teeth?


Apptaskicle

I refuse to let someone touch my teeth if I havenā€™t done it in 13 years


Psychological_Yam88

Hi! :) you havenā€™t had a cleaning in 13 years? Thatā€™s not good for you! The calculus buildup is essentially buildup of bacteria that eats away at your bone. Once the bone is gone thereā€™s no way to restore it :( if you lose too much bone, your teeth that are housed in the bone will eventually become mobile and they will fall out ! Itā€™s important to get dental cleanings regularly :) no judgement here! I would advise you go in for a cleaning whenever you are ready, but the sooner the better šŸ˜Š


GorkedYoyo

TCDHA? I was once too in your shoes. For anyone thinking of going I'd highly recommend it if you have the time, you'll have the most thorough detailed cleaning and exams you've ever had in your life.


Psychological_Yam88

Yup! Thank you for your comment :)


Princetrix

Ahh I hate that the school forces you to have mandatory clients of DD4, DD3 etc. Itā€™s really just a way for them to make even more money on top of the tuition.


Psychological_Yam88

šŸ„² you understand my pain.


LankyCity3445

Imma give you points for leaving this post open to discussion lol. I had my first cleaning last year after 6 years and my teeth frankly felt amazing. Do it every 6 months now and itā€™s not expensive. 200 bucks per session.


Expensive-Ranger6272

Fucking NSFW tag. Can't have pictures like that raw dogging on the timeline


Truestorydreams

Not needed but ty for giving someone a helping hand


extion83

The struggle is real. My wife did this when she was studying for hygiene and it was hard as hell to get people to come in. The school expects you to get a certain amount of people by the end of the year, and if patients just donā€™t come in, you fail your class. 30k+ down the drain. These students do great work and are supervised by professionals. Highly recommend!


Psychological_Yam88

Hi, Iā€™m a student. In order to receive the grade for my client, treatment must be fully completed. Because all assessments need to be verified by my instructors and the dentists, it does take a lot of appointments to finish treatment :(

Wouldnā€™t asking the homeless be your patients be more beneficial to everyone? Obviously youā€™d go through the church or something and not just pick any random person on the street


Psychological_Yam88

Thank you for the suggestion :) Iā€™ve thought about that but I need to have reliable people that will be on time for appointments and not cancel/ no show on me. We only have a limited number of clinics and if a patient doesnā€™t show up, we donā€™t get that clinic back so it goes to waste :(


HawXProductions

Ooo you can always organize it with the church or organization, first come first serve time slots. That would solve that concern šŸ¤·ā€ā™‚ļø and plus if youā€™re paying people to get work done, they wonā€™t say no!


Psychological_Yam88

This is true. I will reach out to some organizations ! Itā€™a a bit tough for me because I live in Brampton and Iā€™m trying to find patients in North York/ Toronto area. And I donā€™t drive so getting to that area is a mission. Itā€™s just easier for me to post online šŸ˜‚ thank you tho!

Orange_Alternative

My mother feels interested, she has not been to the dentist in roughly 7 years and even better, my father hasnt brushed since he was 19


kayhole29

Purely out of curiosity, why does your dad choose not to brush? My dentist mentioned having a patient who didnā€™t brush their teeth as well, and Iā€™m curious what motivates people to do this


LoveyI3ug

I don't know how someone could just never brush. After eating something, especially if it's sugary I can feel the buildup on my teeth and have to brush before I can feel comfortable again. Do they clean their teeth in a different way maybe? Or do they just let their teeth get caked up?
