I realize you plug into the XLR cable but I am having trouble figuring out how to set up the Zoom to work this way. I assume the H4 works the same way.

I have fairly sensitive teeth, and they often mildly ache after eating crunchy foods or snacks (like sunflower seeds), so I use a whitening toothpaste made for sensitive teeth. I brush 3 or 4 times every day. I avoid most snack foods that could do damage, like chips, cookies, pretzels, etc… but I do eat sunflower seeds a lot.

I also like to eat lemons… like, sucking the juice out of lemon wedges. After eating lemons, my teeth feel especially sensitive, and sometimes even *hurt*. I brush my teeth immediately after eating lemons, but they don’t feel near as smooth and clean as they do when I brush after having no lemons. The enamel feels strange, and take a few hours to go back to normal.

Do lemons or citrus fruits in general cause harm to your tooth enamel? What can I do or what products can I use to protect my teeth and still enjoy lemons? Drinking lemon juice on it’s own is kind of gross, so I don’t think that’s an option…

I have a tooth that has little enamel left that I wonder how a dentist would be able to remove it. I have this destroyed tooth for a long time but I feel no pain in it. So I just ignore it even if it continues to decay. Now I’m getting worried about it. Can this tooth be extracted through a simple tooth extraction procedure or do I have to undergo root canal procedure or other dental procedures?

I recently had my teeth cleaned by a new dentist and shortly afterwards I noticed that one of my teeth was looking discolored. I don’t remember having this problem before hand. I assume if I did my new dentist would have said something about it.

How do I know if my silver fillings are leaking?




I have a subtle taste in my mouth that does not seem right. Almost bleach like. I started a raw food diet, so I don’t know if it’s just detox from my liver or what this taste is.

I am a hypochondriac as well. So I am starting to panic.

Any suggestions?

Why not keep a photographic record of teeth?




Ever since I had a digital camera I have done this. Over time I can see what is happening to my teeth. A photo before and after a dental visit is very interesting.Why don’t dentists do this as well?
The way I do it is this. The camera has video out so I can see the view on my TV. I arranged a ring of LEDs around the lens for the lighting. I do not need to put the camera in my mouth to get the wisdom teeth in the picture as well. The camera is just out side my mouth.

BRACES?!?!?!?!!?!????!!!!!!!?




Okay, so I’m a couple weeks I am starting to get braces. The orthodontist told me I had to get a mouth spreader first. Then I get my braces. Now I have 3 questions
1) How long will I have my spreaders in?
2) Will my mouth hurt after I get the braces
3) When you have the option to get your braces in a different color, is it free?

Where can I find out more about this plan, other then Humana’s own website?
Is this plan financially a good purchase?
The people using it would be one adult & 2 children.
I am more interested in coverage for cavities & such that show up between annual check-ups.
Is there a website that objectively evaluates dental plans?
