We need to cat-proof it. We have several cats, all of which have their claws.

I started getting acupuncture 2 or 3 weeks ago. I've done a TON of research on it and am very impressed w/ the variety of health & wellness issue it can help. My main ones are insomnia, anxiety, depression, ADHD, asthma, acid reflux, and irritable bowel syndrome. None are severe (thankfully!) although some are more problematic than others.

My question: within the last week, I've noticed my mood is lower than it normally is. It's not like I walk around crying, and I don't act bitchy. I just feel less happy than usual, a little bit "blue", and less motivated to do things. :( It's not severe, but I can tell it's different than my usual way of feeling.

My acupuncturist said stuff like this happens to some folks during their first few weeks of treatment, because changes are going on in the body that it's not used to, and sometimes that makes a person feel "unbalanced" (for lack of a better word).

Anyone else notice changes like this upon starting acupuncture? If so, for how long?

I had braces for just over 5 years, and I have now been braces-free for about 1 1/2 years. I have a permanent retainer cemented on the back of my bottom teeth, but I have a normal removable retainer for my top teeth.

My question is, will my teeth ever stay put if I don't wear my retainer? I wear it only at night, but if I skip a night or two I start getting a gap between my two front teeth! Will I have to wear my retainer every night for the rest of my life???

Hi, I'm 15 yrs old and I have a pretty big bottom and tummy. (other than that I'm pretty normal). What are some ways I can make lose the fat around there?

I tried doing sit ups but I only got up to about 100 every day before I got really dizzy and it didn't help.

I usually play tennis for an hour every week, I go ice-skating but that's about all the sportsI do if you don't count the sports which I do at school (for about 2 hours every week). I sometimes go swimming (like once every 3 weeks)

I can't run because the neighbourhood I live in is not very safe.

I want to do some exercises everyday at home but I don't know what to do.

thank you!

About a week ago, I went to the dentist for a cleaning. They said there were several "small" cavities that they had to touch up. Does this mean they're going to put a sealant on or actually fill them in? Also, I've had several fillings in the past without Novocaine because I was afraid to get one. The drill was absolutely HORRIBLE. However, the last time I went, I asked for the shot. I didn't even really feel the shot, and it was SO much less painful. I'm really concerned because I'm not sure if the cavities are in the same region as previous ones. I also don't know how many they're going to fill. Will I need more than one shot? Does the shot hurt if they're towards the front of my mouth? AHHH!

I often drink water with lots of fresh lemons in it....I know the acid from lemons can erode tooth enamel so is there a chance of this happening from the water?

Hello everyone -

I've noticed on some of my teeth they look longer or my gums have receded. This is mostly on the lower front teeth and is likely due to aggressive brushing since I really don't have this problem on other teeth. I also have noticed one tooth is loose on the front lowers, and I don't know if it's due to gum recession or if that's because my teeth has become crowded due to wisdom teeth coming out.

Is the loose tooth more likely a result of gum recession? is the loose tooth more of a result of overcrowding? Will soft tissue grafting help out with this and other front lower teeth where the gum has receded?

And finally, how much does this cost without insurance? Thanks in advance for your help...
