Nose digging |
| Question: | |
Thanks in anticipation of your
support. When I idle / relax at home or watch TV channels I start nose digging for a moment..how do I avoid this embarassment? My daughter keeps chiding me as a Dirty Daddy. I seldom realise it and think it is due to my
travel (very rare) in dusty roads on a motor cycle. I try nose blowing when I have my bath daily, but fail to clear my nose as it is OK then. I work in an airconditioned office..will that be a reason.

After you enter your house, it is better to wash the face. Wash the nose inside as well as outside and moisture it for few minutes. Then do nose now and clean it thoroughly and then go and then relax.

Cleaning out your nose is necessary at times, but it is something that should be done in private.
If you work in dusty areas or polluted areas you may have to clear out your nose more often.

Can brushing prevent tooth decay? |
| Question: | |
Do you think that the following statement indicates that brushing cannot prevent tooth decay?
"It is estimated that 84% of the caries experience in the 5 to 17 year-old population involves tooth surfaces with pits and fissures. Although fluorides cannot be expected appreciably to reduce our incidence of caries on these surfaces, sealants can."
SOURCE: Journal of the American Dental Association 1984; 108:448.
