 are cavities a psyop? does it ever make sense to get them filled. I haven't seen a dentist in 5+ years and I don't think I'm missing anything. am I? 
 Bro how can he diagnose your teeth based on that tf. At least share your cleaning routine 
 it's just a general question about cavities. take a chill pill.  
 You phrased your question about your personal teeth. Disregard 
 The trouble with teeth is that cavities don’t hurt until the bacteria is close to/into the nerve. The nerve will try to protect itself but eventually it gets overrun by the bacteria and pain/infection develops. In saying that, some of the early cavities are reversible with good oral hygiene. There is definitely a conflict of interest  though. Our weak money creates an incentive where the dentist or physician is incentivized to treat disease more than we are incentivized to prevent it! 
 I'm super stoked about new additions that bring notes like this!

 me too!!!! this is fantastic. I would love to see a whole medical system change. 
 Yes!  
 I think providing affordable and reliable care on Nostr for everyone is great avenue to attract new users. If you said to me, I could get this tooth fixed for a fraction of the cost, I would sign up for a nostr profile.  
 just remember u don’t have to floss all ur teeth…only the ones u wanna keep😉🤣🤣

My dad was a dentist…and every once in a while I paid attention 😉🤷🏽‍♂️

#J-mart just remember u don’t have to floss all ur teeth…only the ones u wanna keep😉🤣🤣 
 Tell me more about reversible cavities pls 
 thanks for this response. I mostly brush teeth with just water. my diet is on point. I have a water flosser. it's there anything else I could be doing to make sure I prolong a dentist visit for as long as possible.
