    the first issue with the cost of cosmetic dentistry is that so much of it is even considered "cosmetic" in the first place. like braces are considered "cosmetic" even though overcrowding & even mild malocclusions can significantly increase the risk of decay. and if my tooth does decay to the point that it needs to be extracted, replacing it is considered "cosmetic." that's not cosmetic, i'm not worried about vanity, i need my teeth to EAT! the obvious solution is to stop gatekeeping "cosmetic" procedures from actual healthcare, especially where vital organs like TEETH are concerned, and to ditch the for-profit private insurance industry and establish a national socialized healthcare system where everyone is covered for everything.

      I couldn’t agree more! I also wonder if the ADA is on board with this though-they would technically make less money per patient, but they’d have more patients. On the other hand they won’t even let hygienists operate independently in places where people can’t get access to dental care. Healthcare is a human right that everyone should have access too regardless of income (and this is coming from someone who works in healthcare).

      I couldn't agree more. I finally saved up enough to get my teeth straightened and found out that my top and lower teeth were so out of alignment I couldn't chew or bite into things properly. I had my first proper bite of a hamburger recently after a year of invisalign braces and realised I've been ripping food with my teeth for 25 years. I didn't know that wasn't normal. It's so weird biting into things with my front teeth.

    Regarding the cost of braces: I live in Germany and when I was a teen about to get braces, we were told that the most "basic" brackets are covered completely by health insurance. If we wanted fancier ones (e.g. smaller or ceramic brackets) we would have to pay extra by ourselves. This way everyone no matter the income can afford braces but if you really want to, you can pay extra to have them prettier or less noticeable
    Edit: I'm talking specifically about my experience as a teenager and not getting braces as an adult, since I have no experience with that. I had my braces back then just to close some gaps, so nothing severe or major but we still didn't have to pay anything apart from the additional charge for smaller brackets that I mentioned. Hope this clears things up!

    You’re so right about the insanely prohibitive cost of “cosmetic” dentistry - and I used quotes because just about everything bar a straightforward filling is considered cosmetic - it’s insane. To improve my smile, but also to allow me to eat and speak properly, the last two being functions that should rate fairly high on the non-cosmetic scale you’d think, I need several implants, several crowns that will take the best part of a day under local anaesthetic. I guess it is surgery technically, but drilling a tiny bit into my jawbone is IMO, nowhere near the same level of complexity as the surgery required to re-arrange someone’s facial structure, remove and restructure their breast tissue, or to remove fat deposits from inside their body - Yet I could have a facelift, a breast reduction AND a spot of lipo, and it would cost less than the amount my dentist is charging me.

    7:05 Braces aren't always cosmetic, even though they are often classified as such by insurance. My mother had to pay out of pocket to get me braces as soon as my front adult teeth came in when I was in the fourth grade. If she hadn't, my canines wouldn't have come in, and I would've either had to use fake teeth (which is what my mom had to do) or get them pulled down surgically. Small mouths also run in our family, so braces and retainers are necessary to avoid overcrowding and tooth loss. My mother also had to pay out of pocket to get braces for herself in her 60s because her teeth had crowded and migrated until they overlapped like shark teeth. If she hadn't gotten braces when she did, she would've lost multiple teeth and required surgery so she could still chew and stuff. Both my braces and my mother's were classed as "cosmetic."

I always complained to my mom how much the dentist hurt, and her response was that it was my fault for not brushing my teeth well enough. By the time I was 11 or 12, all my molars had silver/mercury fillings. When I was visiting my mom after I had gone to college, there was a news program on in the background and the pediatric dentist was being arrested. He had started slapping kids when they screamed while he was drilling on their teeth. He was not using any Novocain and was using saline when he injected “numbing medicine”.

    Actually, I used to (and still would) use super glue on people frequently in a pinch if someone has a gash or a severed lip and you can't get to a medical facility rapidly enough.
    It works incredibly well to be honest in every case sans stitches. On bare skin, hold pressure on the wound first until the bleeding reduces or stops sanitize the area, then seal the gash little by little. Afterwards, get them to a hospital or clinic post-haste for follow-up care.
    If a lip gets severed in two, sanitize the area, ideally have a third party hold the two parts together and then seal the lip, but you can do it alone if needed.
    The thing with super gluing a head gash is, the tiniest cut will look as if half the head has come off. The head bleeds a lot! Don't panic, separate the hair (But it's best to just shave the area as super glue and any hair on the body do not mix)
    Hair grows back usually and, you have a super cool look for a beat.
    But separate the hair, hold pressure on the wound until the bleeding decreases, sanitize the wound, and then slowly close the wound. Try and keep the glue out of the hair as if it gets into it, you're going to have to cut it off regardless.
    Heck, guitarists and bassists have used super glue on their fingers during shows for decades.
    Don't put your lips in glass containers, aside from what it may do to your lips, glass breaks!
    And aside from that, don't put your lips into any containers whilst sucking in, it will never end well and sausage lips are not in this season or any season...Oh, and stop listening to the Kardashians across the board!
    The charcoal, Elmer's glue thing, is a bad knock off of the Hell Pore mask which hurts like Hell and is definitely not good for the skin on your face!
    However, the mask that the girl was tearing off her face was not DIY'd, I think it was the above mentioned. It did not look homemade. IMO only.

    Dermabond is cyanoacrylate glue, as is regular super glue. The only difference is that the medicinal stuff has a longer hydrocarbon side chain (i.e. octyl instead of methyl/ethyl). All variants are bacteriostatic and polimerize in the same way. There's nothing wrong with using super glue to close a wound, but getting stitches is preffered when proper medicinal infrastructure is available, since they lead to a better cosmetic result.

    As I’ve aged, I’m starting to develop early stage gum disease. I assume that’s why I’m developing this gap between my front teeth that was never there as well, but I also developed a hole in my gum that had to be repaired. Now, treatment for this is deep cleaning (where they get WAY down under your gum line) several times a year. Do you think my insurance will pay for that? Nope, I guess they’d rather pay for expensive gum surgery when it gets really bad. What they see as cosmetic a lot of times is more preventative procedures. But they’re too stupid to see that… Hey, don’t cover the cost of that little cavity, that’s fine. I guess you’d rather have to pay half the cost of an expensive root canal and crown. That makes perfect sense 🙄 So it’s no wonder people pull their own teeth. I wouldn’t do that, however… My longest root to date is 28mm.

    Superglue, which is cyanoacrylate, is already used for a long time in medical field, so it isn't that weird. Obviously, the buyable tubes aren't sterile and absolutely pure, but the principle makes a lot of sense. :)

    Regarding the man who was blue, I remember when that happened and at the time, it was reported (by him) that he drank colloidal silver, and that's what caused his skin to turn blue. If you look it up, you will find the same thing, that he drank colloidal silver and that's what caused it.

    If you're close or live near a dental school, dental and orthodontic services are done at a discount. When I was twenty-two y. o , my pharmacist hear me lamenting about my buck teeth. She talked with me about our university having an orthodontic department in the dental school. I called , set-up an appointment, and was accepted for braces and dental work. At one point they had a plastic surgeon come in, and talk with me about lower face, chin, jaw plastic surgery. They talked about balance , and symmetry of my face.

    Two things for me! I got a small stab wound on my leg in high school (from one of those little pocket knives) and I wasn’t able to get professional treatment. When the wound wouldn’t really close on its own, I used superglue and was very lucky to only get a bit of an uneven scar. I’ve never had problems with it since, and it’s been maybe 5 years.
    Another instance- another time I couldn’t really get medical assistance- the permanent retainer glued behind my top set of front teeth that my optometrist put in maybe 3-4 years prior broke at school. The wire was cutting into the inside of my mouth and was not only very painful, it was very bloody. I ended up going into an empty art classroom and borrowing a pair of wire pliers for making sculptures. (I wiped it with alcohol first but it wasn’t exactly a sterile tool) and I pulled the rest of the wire out. It was fine (if uncomfortable cause I had to pull it out of where I was stabbing me first) and I was very much lucky enough not to get an infection. Even if I accidentally terrified one of the art teachers who happened to come into the bathroom to see me with bloody pliers and blood all over my face. 💀
    In short: if you don’t have access to medical care for whatever reason, small things are okay to DIY if you’re careful (in my very much unprofessional opinion). But plastic surgery and other unnecessary procedures? Please, please, please, do not. I would have gone to a doctor (or a dentist) if I could have.

    I am one of many Americans that grew up having never seen a dentist. I'm 37 now and developed major anxiety around being seen by a dentist. Because of that I've been compulsively brushing, flossing and rinsing for years to try to keep my teeth healthy. I still cannot go see a dentist due to the shame. I sympathize with anyone going through these anxieties. We want healthy teeth and access to care but between money, shame and anxiety we just can't do it. I've worked since I was 17 and only gained access to dental insurance three months ago. I'm still too afraid to make an appointment. My heart goes out to all that struggle with that, it's a vicious cycle. Thank you for being so honest about the lack of access and fear surrounding that Dr. Youn. ❤️❤️❤️

Its amazing there aren't more scleral punctures. I made an entire video on this because I started seeing it in my practice. If I'm not mistaken she did lose the vision in the eye if not requiring a complete enucleation.

The superglue does work though you will also want to apply some antibiotics and check for infection regularly to be safe. Having medical professionals with proper tools and equipment handle things like this is recommended.

    I had what was supposed to be a rhinoplasty with polyp removal 20 years ago by an ENT (big mistake, I know.) Since then, one of my nostrils collapsed and I can't breathe out of it when I lie down. Then last year, I kept feeling this weird poking feeling in the tip of my nose. It drove me crazy, and I kept trying to get it out. Finally, one day, out of desperation, I took a pair of tweezers to try to remove whatever it was (I thought maybe a dried-up piece of skin or something like that). Because of the location, I couldn't see it in the mirror. I found it with the tweezers and started pulling. Turns out it was what I can only describe as a semi-rigid, 16 gauge piece of fishing line that is about 1.5 inches long with what looks like an untied knot on one end. Now it seems the tip of my nose is moving out of shape. Unfortunately, I can't afford to have another surgery. On top of that, the polyps are so bad now that I can't taste anything or breathe easily.
    I know this isn't normal, but WTF?
