They hit the topics of “waterpik vs string floss” to “can I rinse my mouth with urine” (yes someone really sent that question in). And that goes to say…if you ask it…they’ll answer it. So tune in, this episode is a wild ride.

Welcome to DM A dentist, your friendly neighborhood podcast where Dr. Rusty and Dr. Mike are here to make dental care approachable for everyone because everyone deserves a healthy smile without the fear. Well, well, welcome back everybody to another episode of DM A dentist. It feels really good to be back in the podcast studio. We took a little two-week hiatus for, you know, Fourth of July, been doing some camping and stuff, so it feels good to be back. It’s been good. It’s also been pretty hot, so we took a little bit of break. True. But this week had some big news. It did. It did. You know, officially, I think we can call it Mike, but politicians are officially more hated than Dentists. Jesus. It’s like, it’s insane that we had an assassination attempt. Yeah. I mean, it definitely is wild. I can’t believe it happened, honestly, you know, at least, I guess the Secret Service had a quick escape route, so, you know, Trump was able to just get in the van and go’ed. Right? Right? You get it? No! Sorry, sorry, y’all. What an eerie feeling. But anyway, I mean, in all seriousness, that’s terrifying that that’s happening. I mean, we should not live in a nation that we have to deal with this, regardless of the party you’re involved in, right? Like, insane. Well, I’m living a country that we are even making light of it.

It’s completely unacceptable, which we all know that, and honestly, our thoughts in Paris, well, to everyone involved, because it’s terrifying and scary. Even if you’re the president, it’s scary to deal with that, so. Right, so. We definitely need to come together as a country so this stops happening. And, yeah. Yeah. Anyway, let’s, I know that’s a tough subject, but let’s dive in today’s episode in. I hope you’re all ears for this one. Oh, all ears, all ears. Today’s episode is DM deBrief number one. So, debrief, debrief, debrief. So our goal with the podcast, again, you may have heard this if you’ve listened or tuned in before, but our goal with the podcast is to be too done as here answering your questions. And the best way that you can do that is to ask us questions. I mean, that’s the only way we’re going to be able to help you is if you let us know what kind of content you want to see from us, send it our way, send us questions, send us videos, you don’t know what they are if they make sense if they’re real. Help us help you because that’s really what we’re here for. Yeah. So let’s dive into our first DMD brief and get to the questions. So our first question is from LaRie. So her question was, how often should the dental hygienist or dentist check the depth pockets between the bone and the gum? Yeah. So what she’s referring to is when you get a par...
