I lost my patient this morning and damn, I felt it. It could have been avoided, please if you have a cavity in your teeth. See your dentist. It can kill. Please.
Toothpicks cause more harm than good. Dental floss cleans your teeth better! 🦷💫@Remi_AFR @the_beardedsina @ibraheemiyanda2 @EThawwab @dansatty @real_abdulfatai @tooth_boy_
I stopped being insecure when I realized that it doesn't matter what you do or say, the boundaries you set in place, how careful you are or how upright you may be; people will always do whatever they want to do. You got no power over these things; allow them to unravel.
This is one of the most dangerous places in the world 😂

“I don’t ever want to experience toothache again, tooth pain is the worst pain ever”, but since they helped you to treat that tooth that was paining you, you’ve been ghosting your dentist. No dental checkup. Just vibes. Please, how exactly do you plan to protect the other…

On Today's Episode of IT IS NOT NORMAL... #ItIsNotNormal for your GUMS (GINGIVA) to bleed either spontaneously or when brushing/eating SO If you have a challenge with bleeding gums #SeeYourDentist ASAP... #OralHealthAwareness
If your gums bring out blood when you brush, most times it’s because; —there’s too much dirt that has made them inflamed or —you are not being nice to them with your brushing If it happens frequently, please visit a DENTIST to have it checked. Your gums are not blood donors.👍🏾
There are people who don’t need dental checkups at all… those who do not eat food. But for everyone else, dental checkups are important. They’re not only for people with toothache or only the rich. They are for everyone that eats food. When was your last dental visit?
OSTEOPOROSIS IN MENOPAUSE You go home for Christmas and notice your mum is standing a little more hunched than before, and complains endlessly of back pain. You chalk it up to old age, but you’re worried. What could be happening? How can you ease her pain? A thread 🧵
Did you know that observing your stool can give you important ideas about your health. This is what I mean. 💩 CHECK THE COLOUR: 🎯 Brown: Normal, due to bile from the liver. 🎯 Green: Food moving too quickly through the intestines (diarrhea) or eating green foods. 🎯…
Bible in one hand, stethoscope in the other. Figuratively of course! This is how many of us approach life as doctors. We have strong foundational faith because it anchors our understanding of how medicine works. Not because we mix religion with science, but because we…
