dentists getting paid on "production" is an underdiscussed conflict of interest. prevention should be priority, not procedures.

calling it pro-life ispropaganda. pro-choice is not anti-life. anti-abortion IS anti-choice.

At @bristlehealth, we're looking into how oral thrush affects the oral microbiome, and vice versa. If you or anyone you know is affected by oral thrush (candidiasis), please let me know!

glad my friends are getting so much value out of my virology PhD. went from “why can’t i just drink bleach for covid” to “why can’t i just drink bleach for monkeypox”

the frequency of “is my dentist scamming me?” and “one dentist told me i need 12 fillings but another told me i only need 1” on r/askdentists says a lot about the dental industry

the amount of conflicting advice about newborn sleep, feeding, care, development is not at all surprising. anecdotes about “what works” really point to the problem that medicine has not embraced personalized medicine. every. body. is. different.

Finally, looks like somebody (@bristlehealth ) is offering a DTC oral microbiome test. I've always wondered why some people get cavities easily and some don't. About $100 to find out the microbiomes that may explain why. medium.com/microbiome/wha…
