A fissure sealant is a plastic or resin-based composite coating that is applied to the crevices of the teeth to protect them from bacteria and food that might get stuck in them. This is applied to permanent teeth and can last up to 10 years. Dental care can be expensive and many health insurance plans may not cover it.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Know how often to wash your brushes. Let the brushes dry.

Answer: Keeping your brushes clean will save you a lot of time and energy when it comes to washing them. Brushes that encounter a lot of product, such as your foundation and powder brushes, require more frequent washing than brushes that are used less frequently. Here's a guide for how often you should wash your brushes:  Foundation and powder brushes: Once a week Eye makeup and concealer brushes: Bi-weekly Other brushes: Once a month Do not lay them on a towel—this can cause mildew. Instead, set the brush down on a counter, with the bristle part hanging over the edge.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Add chocolate. Give your rose some sparkle. Add multi-colored sprinkles. Create a bouquet.

Answer: To make your strawberry flowers more of a treat or special gift, you can add sweet drizzle of melted white, dark, or milk chocolate.  For even more decadence and a geometric look, dip your strawberry flowers completely in chocolate.  Melt chocolate chips or chopped up chocolate over a double boiler or in low power increments in the microwave. Stir often. To temper the chocolate, add a few extra pieces of solid chocolate to your melted chocolate and stir them in until they melt.  To create an even drizzle, spoon your melted chocolate into a plastic sandwich bag. Cut off a tiny bit of one corner of the bag. Squeeze the chocolate onto your strawberry in this hole in the bag as though you are piping icing. Lay out your strawberries on wax paper to let the chocolate harden so that it doesn't become messy or smudged. Interesting sprinkles can give your strawberry roses a pop of color and visual interest.  For a touch of class, add single edible sugar pearls in the petals of your strawberries. You can find these at most grocery stories in the confectionary aisle. To add these pearls to your strawberries, use a dot of melted white chocolate as a kind of edible glue. Simply dip one side of the pearl in the chocolate, and then place it on one of the petals of your strawberry. Don't move the strawberries until this chocolate dries. Rainbow sprinkles will transform your strawberries with a bit of whimsy. Adding sprinkles will make these fancy strawberries a kid-friendly treat.  Adding sprinkles to your strawberries work best with chocolate. First, either dip your strawberry into melted chocolate or drizzle with the melted chocolate of your choice. While the chocolate is still wet, shake your sprinkles onto so that they stick. Allow your strawberries to dry on waxed or parchment paper. To add an element of realism to your strawberry flowers, display them atop flower stems. You can use stems from plastic flowers for a reusable option or cut the stems off of fresh flowers.  For fresh stems, take a sharp knife to create a 45-degree angle on each of your stems. This will help them glide easily into the strawberries. Carefully stick your stems into the base of your strawberries where the skewers were. Only push them in far enough that the flowers feel secure. You don't want the stem to protrude from the top of your strawberry flower. Place your finished flowers in a vase of your choice to serve. If you don't want to use stems, you can also dye your skewers green. Mix some green food coloring and water in a large dish like a roasting pan. Then, lay all your skewers in the pan, and leave them to dye for 30 minutes. Lay them out on a paper towel to dry.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Use a hip abductor machine. Skip hard cardio in favor of controlled movements on machines. Weight train your way to stronger hips.

Answer:
Your gym will likely have machines devoted to building hip strength. Hip abductor machines provide resistance as you work muscles pivotal to healthy hips. Sit so that your feet are on the foot rests and knee pads are outside of your legs. Use your strength to push the pads from a closed to an open position, away from your body. Bring the weight slowly back to a stop. Do this in sets of ten at a manageable weight. Be sure to emphasize good form. Weights too high or too many reps can lead to injury. Gyms may have machines that slightly vary. If you have any questions about how to use a hip abductor machine, ask a gym employee for help. Jogging is great for overall health but can cause wear and tear to your joints, especially knees, hips, and ankles. Use cardio machines at the gym to get the same benefits of cardio, without all the problems.  Use an elliptical machine. This is a low impact exercise that will increase the range of motion in your hips. Simply follow the instructions and start striding at a comfortable resistance level. This will promote the same range of motion as jogging without the impact of hitting the ground. Stationary bikes are among the best exercise options for hip problems. They're great for increasing your range of motion, keeping joints mobile, and building up strength as you progress to longer, more difficult workouts. Tread climbers work much like walking. You will have to stretch your hips to maintain a natural walking stride. Similarly, a stair climber will stretch and strengthen your hips muscles. The incline of the stair climber will force you to stretch and stabilize your muscles. Both of these should be done with caution and after consultation with your doctor or physical therapist. Cardio and machines are great but there are few strength training equivalents to free weights. Weight training can be a little more difficult than other strengthening exercises, but if done properly and safely yields great results.  Use bench step up exercises to build strength. Find a dumbbell weight that you are comfortable with. Hold a dumbbell in each hand down to your side. Stand in front of a bench lengthwise. Step up with your right foot, holding your left leg to the side. Hold for three seconds then repeat with the other foot. Bent knee deadlifts get the benefits of the Olympic dead lift without the same strain. Again, find a light dumbbell and hold one in each hand. Stand with your feet shoulder length apart, holding each dumbbell with your palms facing in. Keeping your head up, shoulders back and knees slightly bent, bend forward slightly, lowering the dumbbells along your legs. Keep your body weight above your heels and slowly return to a starting position. Use dumbbell lunges to stretch your hips. Keep a dumbbell in each hand and stand upright. Step forward with your right foot, keeping your left leg stationary behind. Lower your upper body down while maintaining your balance. Using the heel of your forward foot, return to your starting position.
