there are drugs that induce gum overgrowth.

have they been tested as a treatment for recession? what happens?

to be clear: i'm not sure they're going to do anything at all.

they might tell me the dentist i saw today was spot on, it's just stains, my teeth are in no threat of cavitation and i should get the fuck out of there.

but, the next step is an exam by a gum doctor, if my teeth are hereby acquitted. and, that lets me keep the dentist for regular cleanings for now, too.
yeah.

if i call the fancy pants periodontist now, i can maybe get the same person to do the root planing & the gum graft and have it done more holistically. i'm trying to be sequential, but that's just it - i don't have any cavities, i just need to deal with the gums. or, maybe they may provide ways to avoid it.

so, that's settled.

perio, it is.

if i walk in there and she's drinking mineral water, i'm going to flip out. fancy pants dentist, indeed.

(perrierdentist. yeah. hey, i may get snotty if i get pushed around, too.)
i also think i should be calling a periodontist if i want a good analysis.
see, the first one told me i had "generalized gingivitis", but he wasn't a dentist.

the last three have all insisted my gums are receding, but healthy. none of them do this particular treatment.

if i can find one that does do the treatment and let them tell me what they think....

even if it's overly preventative, i'd like to really, really clean everything out first if i'm going to approach some kind of rebuilding strategy.

and, i know that what i did today isn't what i'm looking for because there wasn't any anesthetic.

ok.

today was a giant step forwards, and i may stick with them in the end, but i need to go beyond what they offer. maybe i'll call them first...
....and, i think somebody should be willing to do the bonding, which is what the thing i'm looking for is called.

while this guy's analysis is probably right, and useful to me, i'm not sure why he would refuse to paint over them. i mean, i'm not going to argue with him. but, i think i'm going to need to find a dentist #5 that is willing to do a bonding. i may be back to finances - it may be the case that he was at least honest with me, but isn't willing to do work at a lower pay grade.

i'm making progress...

there are places that explicitly advertise "deep cleaning". i should give one of them a call tomorrow.
first, let's if i can get somebody to do a "deep cleaning" - a scaling & root planing. it's covered, but it's not listed in the services the place i went to offers.

let's see if i can explicitly find somebody advertising that particular thing and do that first. because while my teeth may have been conventionally clean, i'm not convinced they're clean under the gumline, and think that needs to be done to finish the job.
this guy says it way better than i ever could.

i wonder if he regrets this; he shouldn't. it's real, and it's valid at any age.

you can buy "tooth makeup", but it's not really what i want. i want some way to recreate the teeth that have eroded.

and, i don't have any cavities, but i do have erosion.

i was right the first time, it seems: my teeth are just getting old and falling apart.

i'm a little flustered, so i'm scattered. i need to recenter in logic and focus.  

so, i wanted to be sequential. i've demonstrated that my teeth aren't rotting, they're just crumbling due to age. so, if they're clean, the next thing is to figure out something that will stick to them and fill them back out.
"but, hormones are fake."

no - my body's real. i grew these curves myself using the same chemicals every other woman uses. it's a fundamental difference; altering your biology with chemistry is completely real, but being sculpted with plastic surgery is absolutely not.

i'll never get plastic surgery, ever. yuck.
i mean, do you have to scrape off the old cement?

can you not just cement over it?
and, to be clear where i'm coming at with this.

i'm a lower class person, and i don't have a lot of interest in all of the classist perspectives around white teeth. i'm happy to embrace a working class identity, and i'm happy to project that with pride. if you think you're better than me for that reason, you can fuck off - i would hate your fucking being to the very core, anyways.

so, i think fake teeth are disgusting - like fake tits and fake noses. fake is gross, in general.

i would rather have natural yellow teeth than snap-on smiles or plastic teeth or whatever. but, my teeth actually aren't yellow at all. what i've got is stains that are actually black, and they're at the gumline.

my concern was really saving my teeth from decay, not what colour they are. so, while i still need to figure something out with this, i want a solution intended to maximize my health, not a solution intended to maximize the cosmetic appeal of the teeth. i want to find a way to fill in the holes with some kind of material, not a way to just gloss over it with a surface appearance.

my hydroxyapatite seems to currently be in customs. but, this is what i want to find.
can i just paint something over it without drilling it?
i think it puts what the other dentists want to do in better context.

when they said they wanted to drill, the thing they want to drill out was the previous work. and, when they said they wanted to fill, what they meant is they want to fill the holes they created by drilling out the previous work and replacing it.

that seems to both make sense and align well with what i can see in my mouth. so, i'm accepting his statements because they make sense and seem right, where what the others said seemed wrong and didn't align well with what i could observe.

it means that what i'm concerned about is not removing plaque or cavities, but removing stains and rebuilding the gums.
so, i got my cleaning and it really wasn't what i was hoping for.

i was under the assumption/expectation that i had plaque build-up on my teeth and that spraying it down a little was all i really needed. i thought that the cementing the guy did a few years ago had broken apart, either leaving spaces for plaque to build up or exposing the consequence of improperly cleaned spaces with cemented over bacteria. the reason i wanted the cleaning was to determine what was plaque, what was stains and what was cavitation before any drilling started - so i know up front and fully understand what is being done.

what i was told today was that i had no plaque on my teeth at all, any minimal cavitation had been arrested some time ago and every single dark spot in my mouth is an unremovable stain. further, the stains are almost entirely the consequence of the previous cementing. so, if i want to get rid of the stains, i'd essentially have to get them to undo the cementing (which was purely cosmetic) and redo it. further, the only reason to do this is cosmetic - there were no cavities to remove, and it wouldn't extend the life of the teeth.

so, this dentist seemed very conservative regarding what he would do, where the others all wanted to do the most amount possible - he insisted that that was a bad idea, where everybody else wanted to go all in on it. his perspective was that, because i don't have any cavities, and because the stains are so close to the gumline, scraping off the old cement and replacing it could actually seriously damage the teeth, resulting in the need for more serious work. the stains may be unsightly, but i'm better off with stained, healthy teeth than white dentures or bridges - especially given how healthy my teeth actually are.

so, the sum of his argument is that i had shoddy work done and it doesn't look nice but i'm better off dealing with it than making it worse.

do i think this is the guy that got it right and is concerned about my health, and everybody else was just trying to maximize profit? the pendulum may have swung, a little - i think he may be a little too risk adverse. i wonder if i could get some additional planing done, and if what i'm seeing is more than just staining of composites, as he claims.

but, i'm accepting his analysis as fundamentally correct, and forcing myself to adjust.

the hygienist actually demonstrated surprise at how clean my teeth were, given that they hadn't been cleaned in 7.5 years.

so, what next?

i need to look into the planing as well as the potentiality of gum grafts. if i don't have plaque build up after all, if it's just stained composite from coffee & marijuana, and if the teeth don't have any cavitation to remove, then maybe i can just stitch some tissue over it.
i've been posting a lot about fluoride recently, so i'm just going to post the lower and upper limits without further comment, and they are 4 mg & 10 mg, respectively. those limits are set by the nih. while fluoride consumption at levels much higher than that are not likely to cause fatalities, they may lead to problems with the absorption of other nutrients and gastrointestinal discomfort. in the long term, high levels of fluorine may lead to bone fractures and general skeletal defects. but, you can overdose on vitamin a, too - and will go blind without it. too much vitamin k and your blood clots and clumps up into a ball; too little, and you bleed to death. and, you know what happens when you inhale water, right? the difference between nutrition and poison is a fine line, indeed, and fluoride is not unique on that point. that is really what the skeptics get wrong - they fail to realize that almost anything at all that is healthy in the right doses is also fatal in the wrong ones.

natural fluoride levels in freshwater fluctuate dramatically and are well below these levels in most places. however, it is curious to note that amongst the highest concentrations of fluoride in fresh drinking water in the world occur in the rift valley in ethiopia, the repeatedly proven place of almost all human evolution. it seems likely that our ancestors first evolved whilst consuming drinking water that had as much as 12 mg/l of fluorine. to this day, fluorosis is actually common in some of the most impoverished areas of africa, and caries are low to nonexistent in these populations. so, the idea that fluorine is unnatural may need to be rethought, and the idea of fluorine deficiency may be better grounded than currently thought. many species of animals change the chemical composition of their shells as they age and molt. so, could it be the case that mild fluorosis is actually a beneficial process that arose in the context of human evolution and that cavities are the disease that develops from fluoride deficiency?

regarding fluoride metabolism, note that sodium fluoride is rapidly and efficiently uptaken in the stomach and rapidly excreted by the kidneys, with only small amounts migrating to bones and out into the saliva, where they are uptaken into the teeth. topical fluoride applications are not thought to be effective because absorption only occurs during specific points in the remineralization cycle and ceases altogether once the topical is removed; consumption seems to be more effective because the source from saliva is more persistent, and as such has the opportunity to work at the proper parts of the cycle. it follows that fluoride in toothpaste is really only effective if eaten, despite what anybody with any good sense says - it seems they are all wrong. for that reason, fluoridated water is, to paraphrase the cdc, one of the greatest public health triumphs of the 20th century. but, levels must be monitored closely, as well.

at doses of 1 mg/L, a healthy person would need to consume 4-5 L of water to ingest the required daily dose. upper limits of around 2 mg/L in drinking water are standard and instructive of how much fluoride should be consumed at once in children, which is not much. children have specific requirements because they maintain specialized cells called ameloblasts that create enamel. high levels of fluoride can lead to deposition in the tooth in children and a condition called fluorosis that can be beneficial if mild but problematic if strong; this does not happen in adults. as such, the epa sets an upper limit for adults at 4.0 mg/L. the preferred tactic is minimal, frequent, sufficient consumption of fluoridated water to ensure persistant salivary excretion and not large amounts taken at once as a narcotic, which may in the end be reswallowed and excreted, whilst causing havoc within the body. so, getting sufficient fluoride ingestion is relatively easy, if you have access to fluoridated water and are willing to drink as much water as you're supposed to drink.

windsor at one time fluoridated it's water. unfortunately, the dumbasses on the city council in this city removed the fluoride from the water, leaving residents of the region without an easily discernible way to consume fluorine as a dental nutrient. politicians have suggested topical use instead but, as mentioned, that is not remotely effective, unless applied constantly and very tactically - the applier would have to somehow be able to predict the uptake phase in the mineralization cycle, and be able to leave it on the teeth until the uptake phase has passed and then do that trick consistently. needless to say, that would be rather difficult, as there's no clear way to discern what phase your teeth are in. so, i've taken to ingesting toothpaste as a source of fluoride, instead, by adding it to water in concentrations that mimic the fluoridation process, which canada sets at an optimal level of .7 mg/L. 

so, i posted this at the beginning of november for fluoride:

guava - 30*.34/10000 = 0.00102 mg = 1000*(0.00102) µg = 1.02 µg
banana - 2.6
strawberry - 4.4
avocado - 10.5
kiwi - trace, but no data
soy milk - 1000*(6*1.33/10000) = .798 µg
ice cream - trace, bot no data
yogurt  - fluoride would kill the bacterial culture
yeast - fluoride kills yeast, too
vector - 1000*(15*.19/10000) = .285 µg
all bran - 1000*(45*.29/10000) = 1.305 µg
flax - trace
algal oil -  potentially relatively substantive, but not clear from any data
water: 1000*.1*(1.774 + .7) = 247.4 µg <----two cups of water + coffee

there's no sources there, but it's a starting point.

lets build some sources from that.

water:
i sent an email to the local company in windsor that came back with an answer of a background level of .125 mg/L, so that's the level coming out of the tap. i am taking two sources of toothpaste as a mixture to add to the water: roughly 1 g of sensodyne's novamin/fluoride (repair & protect) product (.104% fluoride) & roughly 1 gram of colgate's 5000 ppm fluoride product (prevident ). that means there's going to be 1000*.00104 + 1000*.005 = 6.04 mg of fluoride in the used toothpaste, which is then watered down to 100 ml. 12.5 ml is put in each cup of water or coffee; .125*6.04 = .755. so, each cup of water contains .755+ .125*.85 = .86125 mg of fluorine, at concentrations of 1.01 mg/L and each cup of coffee contains .125*6.04 + .125*.35 = 0.79875, at a concentration of 2.28214285714 mg/L. while higher than most drinking water, i'm content with a somewhat therapeutic dose of fluoride in my coffee.

banana, avocado:
data from usda database search

strawberry, yogurt, ice cream from supplemental usda document:

soy:

guava:

kiwi:

water = .125*.85 + 6.04*.125 = .86125 mg = 861.25 µg
========
guava -  (1000*1000)*((30*.34/10000)/100) = 10.2 µg
banana  - 2.6 µg
strawberry  - 4 µg  <----new source is a little lower, but let's standardize
avocado  10.5 µg
kiwi  - 1*.69 = .69 µg
soy - (1000*1000)*((6*1.33/10000)/100)*1.6 + 1000*.1*.9203*.4 = 49.8 µg 
ice cream - 15*.825 = 12.375  <---higher than i thought, but ok
yogurt - 12*.5 = 6 µg <------""
yeast ~ 0. fluoride is an anti-fungal.
vector cereal - 19*.15 = 2.85 µg <-----note conversion factor error. should be (1000*1000)*((15*.19/10000)/100) = 2.85.
all bran cereal -  27*.45 = 12.15 µg <----likewise, there was an error in conversion, here, and the source is a little different.
flax -  trace
algal oil -  trace. while salt water seaweed is high in fluorine, this oil is made from a freshwater algae that exists in surface water, which has very low fluorine contents.

(861.25 + 10.2 + 2.6 + 4 + 10.5 + .69 + 49.58 + 12.375 + 6 + 0 + 2.85 + 12.15)/4000 =
0.24304875 ---->24%

neon, like helium, would be almost impossible to manage to eat. you could choke on it, though. otherwise, you can breath it in and out in moderate amounts.

the next up is sodium, and this is the first one that's easily measurable and can be worked out conventionally.

disclaimer:
i've gone to town with a few things - i'm not making up vitamins but rather filling things in. i mean, there's all these "missing vitamin names". what were they, exactly? it also gives me an excuse to work in a few things like choline that are hard to otherwise define as they are essential in some amount but not technically vitamins.

note that these numbers are scavenged and should be interpreted approximately. that's partly why i'm aiming to overshoot on most of it.

diet options:

daily:

 2 ) pasta salad bowl:
- one tbsp of imitation bacon bits (isoflavones, maybe)
- olives?
- red clover (if locatable or foragable, for phytoestrogens)
- alfafa?
- rice bran is similar to sunflower in b5, but lower in omega-6 and lower in choline. also, less e. it would be better if i find myself strictly concerned about b5, but in the pasta bowl. this seems unlikely.
- dried whey is a little lower in both b5 & higher in choline, but also has a little b12 & has almost no fat. it's almost like the missing part of the yeast. i'm having trouble finding it though and don't think the isolate available at bulk barn is comparable. it seems to be largely seen as a waste product in yogurt production. it may be broadly useful across plates.
- broccoli?

3) eggs:

remaining items to enter or investigate:

15 amino acids: <----for sure, eventually
1) histidine, 2) isoleucine, 3) leucine, 4) lysine, 5) methionine, 6) phenylalanine, 7) threonine, 8) tryptophan
9) valine, 10) arginine, 11) cysteine, 12) glycine, 13) glutamine, 14) proline, 15) tyrosine
+ measure 6 non-essential

carotenoids (not including pro-vitamin a): <---maybe
1) lutein, 2) zeaxanthin, 3) lycopene, 4) phytofluene, 5) phytoene, 6) astaxanthin, 7) capsanthin, 8) canthaxanthin, 9) cryptoxanthin

chlorophyll:
1) chlorophyll a
2) chlorophyll b

other molecules required for proper metabolic functions:
5) ergothioneine  (cannot synthesize)   
6) pqq - .2 mg, or 400 ng, but can't find good sources
7) queuine - no rdi determined. milk, whole wheat, tomatoes.
10) creatine? (avoidance? creatine increases muscle mass (which is bad.) but also improves brain function (which is good). careful.) 
11) ribose
12) "nucleic acids"?
13) don't forget about heme
14) carnosine

glucose:
i'm more concerned about diabetes than weight gain, so...
the glycemic index is:
running total...

fiber:
i don't need many different types, i just need some. i'm not worrying about this.

& water

also, let's measure flavonoids:
