I woke up yesterday morning with a sore mouth. My right side teeth both top and bottom are sensitive to cold (VERY sensitive) and hurt. It starts at my 3rd tooth back on both the top and bottom and hurts. Yesterday they were just sensitive and hurt a bit, but today as the day has went on they have slowly started hurting even more. I have a tooth on the bottom that had been filled, but the filling came out. It's been that way fror about two years, but I don't have dental insurance so I couldn't get it fixed. Sometimes food gets down where the filling was in between my teeth and it hurts but i just floss and it stops.Can't tell if my face is puffy or anything but my jaw kinda off and on feels tired. My gums are swelled on the top inside but I don't know if that's where I flossed earlier or not. I don't have dental insurance but I do need to know what to do or take.Right now it is a moderate and tolerable pain but I don't want it to keep getting worse. Can you go to a regular dr for this
--------------------
The area where you lost your filling has been unprotected all this time. The inner layer of a tooth is not as hard as the enamel and therefore easier to breakdown. Most likely you have new decay in that area and it could possibly be deep enough now that it has effected the nerve. You possibly are grinding on your teeth at night and that is why the top and bottom both hurt. You may have also cracked that weakened tooth from grinding on it. It could be several things. The main thing is that it is talking to you and the problem won't go away until you see a dentist. You can take some Ibuprofen for now to ease the pain and don't use tartar control toothpaste or whitening toothpaste. They make your teeth more sensitive to colds. Check into getting a night guard to wear during sleeping. You can start with the soft ones you buy in the stores, but a hard one made for you by the dentist is easier to wear. Hope this helped.

I need your help!?
Ink Inc., a publishing firm, offers its 899 employees a cafeteria approach to benefits, in which employees can enroll in the benefit plan of their choice. Seven hundred thirteen employees have health insurance, 523 have dental insurance, and 489 have both health and dental insurance. (a) What is the probability p that one of the employees has either health or dental insurance? (b) What is the probability p that one of the employees has health insurance but not dental insurance?
--------------------
a) To find the total number of employees with health or dental insurance, add the number with health insurance (713) and the number with dental insurance (523), then subtract the number with both (489) since they would have been counted twice. 713 + 523 - 489 = 747. Divide this number by the total number of employees to get the probability. b) To find the number of employees with health but not dental insurance, subtract the number with both (489) from the total number with health insurance (747). Again divide this by the total number of employees to get the probability.

Please help me with the AND and OR Logic please?
Lab 15 AND and OR Logic USING AND LOGIC When you write Visual Basic programs, you can use the AND operator (And) to make multiple comparisons in a single decision statement. Remember when using AND logic that all expressions must evaluate to true for the entire expression to be true. The Visual Basic code that follows illustrates a decision statement that uses the AND operator (And) to implement AND logic: Dim medicalPlan As String = "Y" Dim dentalPlan As String = "Y" If medicalPlan = "Y" And dentalPlan = "Y" Then System.Console.WriteLine("Employee has medical insurance" & " and also has dental insurance.") Else System.Console.WriteLine("Employee may have medical insurance " & "or may have dental insurance, but does " & "not have both medical and dental " & "insurance.") End If In this example, the variables named medicalPlan and dentalPlan have both been initialized to the string constant "Y". When the expression medicalPlan = " Y" is evaluated, the result is true. When the expression dentalPlan = "Y" is evaluated, the result is also true. Because both expressions evaluate to true, the entire expression medicalPlan = " Y" And dentalPlan = "Y" evaluates to true. Because the entire expression is true, the output generated is "Employee has medical insurance and also has dental insurance. If you initialize either of the variables medicalPlan or dentalPlan with a value other than "Y", then the expression medicalPlan = "Y" And dentalPlan = "Y" evaluates to false, and the output generated is "Employee may have medical insurance or may have dental insurance, but does not have both medical and dental insurance." USING OR LOGIC You can use OR logic when you want to make multiple comparisons in a single decision statement. Of course, you must remember when using OR logic that only one expression must evaluate to true for the entire expression to be true. The Visual Basic code that follows illustrates a decision statement that uses the OR operator (Or) to implement OR logic: Dim medicalPlan As String = "Y" Dim dentalPlan As String = "N" If medicalPlan = "Y" Or dentalPlan = "Y" System.Console.WriteLine("Employee has medical insurance" & " or dental insurance or both ") Else System.Console.WriteLine("Employee does not have medical" & " insurance and also does not have dental insurance.") End If In this example, the variable named medicalPlan is initialized to the string constant "Y", and the variable named dentalPlan is initialized to the string constant "N". When the expression medicalPlan = "Y" is evaluated, the result is true. When the expression dentalPlan = "Y" is evaluated, the result is false. The expression medicalPlan = "Y" Or dentalPlan = "Y" evaluates to true because when using OR logic, only one of the expressions must evaluate to true for the entire expression to be true. Because the entire expression is true, the output generated is "Employee has medical insurance or dental insurance or both." If you initialize both of the variables medicalPlan and dentalPlan to the string constant "N", then the expression medicalPlan = "Y" Or dentalPlan = "Y" evaluates to false, and the output generated is "Employee does not have medical insurance and also does not have dental insurance." In this exercise, you use what you have learned about OR logic to study a complete Visual Basic program that uses OR logic in a decision statement. This program was written for a marketing research firm that wants to determine if a customer prefers Coke or Pepsi over some other drink. Take a few minutes to study the code that follows, and then answer Questions 1-4. 'CokeOrPepsi.vb - This program determines if a customer ' prefers to 'drink Coke or Pepsi or some other drink. Module CokeOrPepsi Sub Main() Dim customerName As String ' Customer's name Dim drink As String = "" ' Customer's favorite drink customerName = InputBox$("Enter customer's name: ") drink = InputBox$("Enter customer's drink preference: ") If drink = "Coke" Or drink = "Pepsi" Then System.Console.WriteLine("Customer Name: " & customerName) System.Console.WriteLine("Drink: " & drink) Else System.Console.WriteLine(customerName & " does not prefer Coke or Pepsi.") End If End Sub End Module 1. What is the exact output when this program executes if the customer's name is Sally Preston and the drink is Coke? Answer: Customer Name: Sally Preston Drink: Coke 2. What is the exact output when this program executes if the customer's name is Sally Preston and the drink is Pepsi? Answer: Customer Name: Sally Preston Drink: Pepsi 3. What is the exact output from this program when If drink = "Coke" Or drink = "Pepsi" is changed to If drink = "Coke" And drink = "Pepsi" and the customer's name is still Sally Preston and the drink is still Coke? Answer: Sally Preston does not prefer Coke or Pepsi. (Why?) 4. What is the e

Would you date a guy with missing front tooth.?
cuz i am missing one. I dont have dental insurance right now got layed off and lost it. I do plan geting it fix when i do got insurance. if any 1 wants to let me have 1,000 i can get it fix now. lol i lost it playing Hockey .
--------------------
Depends - do you show off the fact you lost it and brag about the big hit during the game or does it affect you because you don't smile and try to hid the fact it is missing? A closed mouth frown would definitely be a turn off but so could a full open mouth smile. Regardless, get it fixed as soon as you can - most dentist will accept partial payments or credit card payments.

Stepson needs braces?
I just started a job and will be eligible for dental insurance. I'm going to put my step son on my insurance (he already has medical from his fathers work) My question is when my step son goes for braces can my husband put that towards his half of the payment. I called the mother to help with the preimum payment she refused. We wish we could afford to pay for the whole cost of the braces but we really cannot.
--------------------
First check with your insurance company and make sure that the dental covers orthodontic treatment and what restrictions they have on the treatment. Some dental insurance will not cover braces for 12months or only pay a small portion. Also, find out what exactly your husband's dental coverage includes for his son. Get lists of orthodontists and start asking around too... as word of mouth is often better than anything else! Make the calls yourself FIRST, then start calling around for evaluations your step-son. At the eval appointment, provide the insurance information you have collected and the office will call to verify all benefits. Evals are usually free and last between 30-60 minutes. If the eval is free, go elsewhere... trust me... and be sure to get at least 2 evaluations. Everyone will have a different viewpoint on how to treat your step-son and the price will vary depending on what type of braces you decide with (clear/ ceramic brackets, self-ligating brackets, traditional braces, invisigln, etc...). Many offices also have payment plans you can work out with them too, especially if the insurance will not cover everything. Call and ask and go in and visit and become as informed as you possibly can as a parent. Not all orthodontists are equal and be sure you do your homework about the orthodontists you visit (look them up online, call dentists office for recommendations or your local dentist, check out their website, read or request to view comment cards from patients). My orthodontist office consists of a team, a family team, of orthodontists. They both work on all of the patients and you never know who will see when you go in for a visit. They have a binder full of comment cards up front, have all of their certifications posted, have been in the city for 25yrs, and come highly recommended from not only my personal dentist -- but also from friends and church members. They had a payment plan, work around crazy work schedules/ school schedule, and have an emergency phone line you can even all on a weekend! Their staff knew me by name within a visit or two and even remembered me between my eval and actual "brace day" too. They even have transportation available to their students, to and from school, so their parents do not have to take off work to get them to the ortho. My office has contests and prizes you can win for having good hygeine, making it on time to appointments, etc... which is a great incentive. Another thing to check for is make sure EVERYTHING is included in the price, especially retainers and after-care. Not all ortho's quote the retainers and or follow-up care in their initial quote... so watch :) Good luck in making this important decision for your son. It will change his life!
