Streptococcus enzyme could compete with toothbrushes, dental floss

Investigators from Japan show in vitro that the bacterium Streptococcus salivarius, a non-biofilm forming, and otherwise harmless inhabitant of the human mouth, actually inhibits the formation of dental biofilms, otherwise known as plaque.

My Wisdom Tooth Extraction Using Self-Hypnosis (No local anaesthetic)

I used self-hypnosis to numb my gums so that my dentist could perform my wisdom tooth extraction without any use of local anesthetic. Came out of hypnosis without any pain and if you notice, I could talk rather normally since there wasn’t any numbing anaesthetic to make me drool 🙂 Started eating my lunch (hot food) after like 10 to 15mins (even though the dentist advised against it). Very minimal spotting on blood and no bleeding because I can control blood flow using hypnosis. No pain at all and it was overall a wonderful experience 🙂 Disclaimer!!: I’m a Certified Hypnotherapist with the US based National Guild of Hypnotists (NGH). I also possess a certificate in Clinical Hypnosis from the London College of Clinical Hypnosis, and have had in-depth training prior to doing this. So please do not try this at home. You can always drop me a message if you want to know more, and I’ll try my best to answer your questions 🙂 Cheers! Jude PS: I currently reside in Singapore. It can be arranged if you would like to personally experience hypnosis.
