This is kind of random but I can’t find an answer online! In the past couple years i’ve been going in hard on dental work, and catching up to what was probably over a decade of not going to the dentist (I’m 22F). While getting my various fillings, and while looking at a million x-rays of my mouth, I noticed that my top teeth had a lot of cavities in-between the teeth. But my bottom teeth didn’t have any of those kinds at all. Why is that? It’s not like my bruising/flossing habits were different going from one to the other.

Might be relevant that I had pretty bad GERD in that time, and I do frequently drink soda. No smoking though.
I do also have an underbite that I’m getting treated for now so maybe that’s why?
IDK but I am very weirdly curious about this and figure a more fun/non-serious question might be a good change of pace ;)

Hi,

I am 22 and I have more credit debt than I would ever feel comfortable with (abt. 11,000) I am in the space right now between finishing college and getting a real job, and I have a teaching degree so I would have to wait until August at the earliest for a real paycheck. I have been getting ads constantly offering personal loans to consolidate my debt and want to know if that's actually a good idea or more of a scam for my money.

I don't make a lot right now, which is why the debt exists lol, about $2000 a month. I just refinanced my car to bring it to $127 from $317. And got into a student loan program where I am not paying anything until my salary goes up.

The loans I am getting offered are at about 10% APR, all my credit cards about 18-19% APR which seems great but I feel like this is a trap that won't actually help my credit score (653).

I know I'm not good at this money stuff, I don't really have any great role models in my family and struggle with impulse control when I'm stressed. Any advice would be helpful.

Should I pull the trigger on this? Is this dumb if I already struggle with controlling my spending?
