I can understand what you mean. I started with floss but for some reason I got more food/buildup out from in between my teeth with wooden toothpicks and interdental cleaners.

I have a new dentist, so for fun I am gonna ask at my next appointment what she would recommend.

If I remember, then i'll come back to give the answer from my new dentist.

My next appointment is in November though ;).

Try the pink interprox ones. They are the thinnest ones.

Otherwise ask your dentist if they can show you how to use them. Just because your teeth are really tight together doesn't mean that there won't be any buildup of food or other things.

My dental hygienist told me that the best tools for cleaning your gums are wooden toothpicks.

the second best are the interdental cleaners.

The worst are the plastic toothpicks and the dental floss.

I've been using a combination of the wooden toothpicks and interdental cleaners for a few years and they are game changing.

Also use a good electric toothbrush and an tongue scraper.

An electric toothbrush gets into the places in between your teeth that a normal brush can't get to and an tongue scraper is a game changer for the smell of your breathe overall.

Take good care of your teeth and gums. Brush 2 times a day, clean your gums at least 1 time a day and scrape your tongue.

Bad dental hygiene and no gum cleaning whatsoever will lead to receding gums and may lead in extreme cases to periodontitis .

Receding gums are a real thing and when they happen they DO NOT grow back. Your roots of your teeth will be exposed which are a pain in the ass itself.

Bad dental hygiene and no gum cleaning will also lead to deeper "gum pockets" which can lead to periodontitis. Look up what that means for your teeth and gums and you will start taking care of your mouth flora like a possessed being.

I am not a dentist of any kind, a few years ago I just really took an interest in dental health and tried to educate myself about the subject for a few weeks.

Correct me where I am wrong or if you want to elaborate on something, be my guest ;)!

• FF7 Crisis core is my favorite game ever. The gameplay, story, voice acting and music are all top notch.

• DEF Jam Fight for NY is another PSP favorite for me. I really liked the combat and customization options for your character. It was just an enormous fun game.

• Daxter was the first PSP game I played and it was also just an really fun and good game.

• Dissidia Final Fantasy is als just a really good game with an amazing combat system.

• The naruto games were really good. I think it was the ultimate ninja heroes games that had this interesting gameplay and also a story mechanic with an floor system that you had to climb and play through.

• Bleach heat the soul series are fun fighting games. I think not all of them were released in the west but I recommend them because the gameplay was super fun.

Nope.

Moved it out of my folder at the start of the blackout and opened it a few times for the modcoord updates.

I still have it for novelty reasons but I have been on Kbin and Lemmy since those few weeks.

I've been trying Tusky and Fedilab. They are better experiences for sure.

Just tried the new official app and it is much better than what it was before but the 3rd party offerings are still ahead as of now.

Just my 2 cents.

I like the overhaul. It is a huge improvement, but I still think the 3rd party offerings are better in the user experience part for now.

Because RIF and Apollo were hugely popular.

Reddit wants to give you the faint idea that you have a choice instead of actually having a choice.

A cornered animal who sees 1 way out isn't as unpredictable than a fully cornered one.

This reminds me of the last week tonight episode with edward snowden.

It was about privacy and the people interviewed didn't care until the question was phrased if it were dickpics the government had access to.

The interview with snowden starts around 14:00

and the fragment about the dickpics around 25:00.

It is Random chance.

I have read your comments;

"I think it's probably doomed. It'll never overtake reddit. But, it'll be a nice, quiet, alternative."

No one knows if it is doomed.

You have to start somewhere but you can't expect a platform that has seen an huge influx of users the past weeks to immediately operate on the scale of what Reddit does.

"I humbly apologize for my personal, speculative, opinion about the unknowable future. The downvotes have made me realize my math was wrong, my opinion is wrong, and I am wrong. My corrected opinion is that Lemmy will overtake Meta, Mastadon, Twitter, and Google (wtf is reddit!?), and every upvote will be worth $1000, making everyone rich! Or, we can have fun guessing, and wait and see how things go. I hope they go well!"

Who is claiming the above?

The fun thing is that Mastodon is in your list and before the fuckery with Twitter it didn't really have traction.

Why can't lemmy/Kbin be the same in a year from now?

The problem for Reddit, is that it made people actually look for alternatives. It is stupid for a competitor to make it's customers aware of the competition, but Reddit did exactly that.

Maybe it flops, maybe it stays "niche", maybe it explodes in popularity.

I think it is indeed random chance and just being at the right place at the right time.

Should we care that other people still use reddit?

Do you have to chose one or the other?

Why are people so hell bent to "take over" Reddit?

I found an alternative in Kbin and Lemmy that suits my needs and focuses on user experience and growing communities instead of growing the pockets of a handful of people.

I decide to not use Reddit anymore because the upper echelon can go fuck themselves.

Is it so weird to have a set of values and stop using a service/product, because they cross the boundaries one has set for themselves?

I have used Reddit for more than a decade and I haven't missed it all.

I am here because I enjoy it and not because I have a deeper desire for Reddit to evaporate out of nowhere.

I use(d) it to follow 1 guy for updates about my favorite sports team and transfers etc.

But he introduced a new site (today) and is actually gonna quit the platform to go to twitch or somewhere else, so i'll say goodbye to another social media account after today.
