I think the study concluded that mouth wash with alcohol can lead to an increase in cancer rates.

But you should probably use a non alcohol brand anyway.

Brush morning and night, floss everynight with unwaxed floss, have my own dental pick for minor scraping of the lower front teeth which always get minor plaque buildup which the dentist said is front the saliva glands, use a sonic care toothbrush

Mom always took us to the dentist every six months and we NEVER walked out without cavities. I TRULY believe healthy teeth were filled to make money. Therefore, my entire back teeth are nothing but fillings and will probably not last me to 60. My husband is the same. My kids had the same oral hygiene as me as a youngster and they each have 2 small fillings. I can remember going to the dentist and him saying, she has 4 this time, she has 3 this time.......

Yeah right, like I brushed with sugar and gargled with Syrup. I have to take xanax to go to the dentist now because of that beast!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
