Special Pack of 5 SCHERING-PLOUGH NO POST CUSHION GRIP ADHESIVE 1 oz

Special Pack of 5 SCHERING-PLOUGH NO POST CUSHION GRIP ADHESIVE 1 ozI had full extractions and began wearing upper and lower dentures 6 months ago at the age of 47. I am sure all denture wearers know what a humbling experience this can be at any age and I was no exception, it was hard. After the initial healing period, bone loss and gum shrinkage occurred rapidly. My soft re-lines by the dentist held up two weeks, max. After reading all the great reviews, I purchased Cushion Grip from Amazon early on in my denture experience and it has been if not a life saver for me, a definite 'pride saver' as I cannot see the dentist twice a month. I have found it very easy to use and had no problems even the first time I used it. In addition to closely following the package directions, I recommend having a blow dryer handy until you become accustomed to the application. The tube must be warmed in a cup of hot water before squeezing the substance out at which time in comes out with ease in one piece. Before I became skilled enough to make the application quickly, sometimes it would cool down faster than I could shape the pliable rubber-like substance into my denture. That's where the blow dryer comes in. If it cools down and loses its pliability before you've finished shaping it into your denture, a warm blow dryer over the denture for a few seconds will soften it back up. Because I've had practice, I rarely have to do that any longer; I am able to properly apply and shape the substance to my denture in a matter of seconds. The outcome is much like a reline from the dentist. Given the speed by which my gums have shrunk, Cushion Grip has represented the most convenient and economical solution for me.

Pros: Very fast temporary reline once you get used to it. The box states that it lasts up to four days, but a single application has lasted up to two weeks for me. Prevents the friction and gum soreness from loose fitting dentures. Affordable. Dependable. Easy to remove in one piece (run cold water over your plate for easy removal or grip).

Cons: The grip does burn the gums for the first 2 or 3 minutes, but this was less intense for me over time. I does not serve as an 'adhesive' for me on my lower dentures as the tube suggests. I still need to apply an adhesive. If you do choose to leave the reline in more than a few days, you may start to notice sharp edges because the product becomes harder. I use this as my signal to remove the old Cushion Grip and apply new.

I know the use of Cushion Grip has prevented some embarrassing moments for me as a newbie to dentures. I would give it 5 stars if it did not claim to be an 'adhesive.' It is definitely more of a fast, convenient, temporary reline but I would not count on it alone to keep my lowers secure.

After getting upper dentures near three months ago my gums had two very sore spots. If your reading you know what its like. Can not enjoy food when the denture slips, it hurts. After 3 or 4 trips to my dentist it was better but still sore especially when they tilt or slip. I knew I had to take charge & find something that worked.I bought a reline kit but have not used it. I also bought the gooey adhesives that's a pain to remove, we've all been there.

Along come Cushion Grip & after reading reviews I was real sure my search was over. First of all it is NOT an adhesive, if that's what you really want look elsewhere. It is a very thick thermoplastic gel. I say gel but its barely liquid. In reality that is what you want. Something that is pliable, can be spread inside your dentures yet soft enough to conform to your gums. It did that far better than than the impressions my dentist made.

I said its NOT an adhesive but it conforms so well adhesive is not necessary. It conforms near to an exact fit & after biting down its a vacuum like a suction cup. That is what it does it creates a vacuum. It does not let air in so your dentures stay in place. My dentures were pretty loose, now the problem is gone.

I heat water on the stove, not boiling & leave the tube in for 5+ minutes. Meanwhile I use tooth paste & brush my dentures, making sure they are clean & dry. Then spread the gel & let it sit for at least ten minutes. You may not spread it quite right but you'll learn.

I said 10 minutes because it needs time to cure. I think some feel a burning sensation because they do not let it cure long enough. If you use a lot, let it cure longer. In my case a tube will do my uppers 4 times. So once cured put it in & push back & up, then bite firmly for about 15 seconds. It takes a little effort to remove them. If you did it right, cure time etc your dentures will fit tight & hold. If you did not allow enough cure time the thermoplastic might stick to you gums. That happened to me first time so a little more cure time & all was well.

If you've read this far be sure to read reviews similar to mine. This product works & works very well & it lasts a lot longer than stated by the mfg. Imagine that, how often does that happen? I got it from Pharmapacks well ahead of schedule.

My dentures have never fit right. Took eight months to get them and never went back to the place that made them for lining...afraid to. Cushion grip helps them fit better and even helps to prevent sores from my dentures moving by holding them better in place.

I find that cushion grip helps me with the fit of my dentures. I had a friend try it and he did not like it at all. For me it keeps my teeth from moving around. I should get them refitted, but this, for me, is a lot better right now.

Maxpedition Individual First Aid Pouch . Foliage Green

Maxpedition Individual First Aid Pouch . Foliage GreenI use this bag/pouch to carry first aid supplies and for that role it is unsurpassed...IMO. It's lower weight nylon than other Maxpedition bags so it's more pliable and is very comfortable. I really like this. Of course YMMV.

I purchased this pouch to augment my condor M4A1 trifold Medical pouch in my BOB. I'm planning to use this pouch to hold odd sized medications and bandages. This is a very simplistic type pouch, odd almost in the sense that it's not the typical type design you normally see. However, that simplistic deisign is perfect for what I was looking for. My only complaint about this pouch design is that Maxpedition is calling this a First Aid Pouch they didn't provide any velcro locations to affix a med patch to it. The lack of a velcro location isn't a deal breaker, again it's just odd and the reason I only gave this 4 stars. I have several Maxpedition products and none of them have disappointed and neither has this pouch.

Iodine Tincture First Aid Antiseptic-2% USP, By Preferred Plus - 1 Oz

Iodine Tincture First Aid Antiseptic-2% USP, By Preferred Plus - 1 OzThis iodine is exactly what I wanted in order to be able to test for iodine deficiency, which I have read is much more prevalent than most realize. I know that iodine is good for other things, too, but the testing is what I wanted it for. Remember, this form is NOT for internal usage! There are other products, like Lugol's and Iosol, which are.

Slowly been putting together a few survival kits. While there's some debate about using Iodine vs chlorine/bleach for water treatment especially for longterm use, I'm a big believer in having a few different solutions around the house, in my car and at camp. This Iodine tincture is designed for topical treatment (largely cleaning a wound), but has a dual purpose of being able to treat water for bacteria and make it drinkable (even though it says it's a poison). Now, I wouldn't want to do this long term....but for a 72 hour survival situation, this liquid iodine is a handy piece of kit with a few different uses, and versatility is clutch in emergency or survival situations. I would read up on precisely how to treat water and the effects/benefits/comparison between iodine vs chlorine/bleach based treatments (as well as physical filters for water)...as there are a lot of pros and cons, but as a first-aid topical treatment, Iodine is great. Has a long shelf-life. It can stain and there are clear versions of Iodine, but I like being able to "see" where the Iodine goes.

3M Transpore Clear 1-Inch Wide First Aid Tape, 10-Yard Roll (2 Rolls)

3M Transpore Clear 1-Inch Wide First Aid Tape, 10-Yard RollThis is a must-have in your first aid box. YOU DO HAVE A FIRST AID BOX, DON'T YOU? I've had a lot of surgery, so I can authoritatively speak to the hell of pulling dressing tape off your skin on the same spot over and over. This tape is the easiest and least painful to remove. It holds the dressing in place well and does not take patches of skin with it when it's time to change it. Good job, 3M.

Most men who run long distances have problems with the dreaded nipple chafing. Band aid's are the traditional fix, but can get expensive when used almost daily. This tape worked out great. It stuck to the skin in that sensitive area, did not come off as a result of sweating, and wasn't bad to remove. It addressed the problem perfectly.

MDF® Deluxe Sprague Rappaport X Stethoscope Color: Navy Blue

MDF® Deluxe Sprague Rappaport X Stethoscope Color: Navy BlueHere is the one-word summary of my review for this stethoscope: Outstanding!

If you look at my profile, you will see I've reviewed other steths before. I'm a nursing student who is obsessive about his stethoscope. I also happen to like the Sprague-Rappaport style steth which has unfortunately been the victim of cheap knock-offs that are sub-par in terms of sensitivity, fit and finish, and comfort. I know; I own one: Prestige Traditional Black Sprague Stethoscope. The price is right for a poor college student, and they work fine for BP's, etc. But I kept hearing how the Sprague-Rappaport style was the pinnicle of auscultation... heck, I just wanted one that didn't fall apart, was comfy to wear, blocked outside noises, and allowed me to hear bowel sounds, respiration sounds, and various cardiac shenanigans on my patients!

I know every one loves Littmann, and that's fine; They make an excellent lineup of steths and I own one myself Littmann 2141 Master Classic II Stethoscope, Black Edition; However, I like the non-tunable diaphragms and the concept of various attachments for my steth to make it more versatile.

But enough of my soapbox ranting. Here's why students (and I also feel nursing professionals) should give this steth (and MDF as a whole) a chance with their hard-earned money:

1) Sound quality. What good is a stethoscope if you cannot auscultate effectively with it? The difference between this and the Prestige is night and day! I can utilize both the bell and diaphragm on this steth and the pulsations from the pulmonic and aortic regions are full and have depth to them. I don't have to search for them, they are right there where the text and my teachers say they should be! And there is really a difference between the sounds obtained via the diaphragm and the bells, just as there should be!

2) Build quality. I'll be honest with everyone: I just got this steth today, so I do not know how long it will last in the trenches. But as soon as I opened the box and tried it out, I felt strongly enough to come here and tell you all about it: The dual head on this steth is much heavier and denser than the Prestige Sprague I own. It turns with a very positive, full-feeling 'click'. Very reassuring. There is also pressure in the ear tips when the bell is selected and removed from the patient's body quickly which signifies tight internal tolerances. My other steth didn't have that at all. (The head of the Prestige felt as though it were just floating on a pivot). The tubing (or lumen)of the MDF 767x is thick and has a high-quality glossiness to it. The pictures show it looking dull, but it is of high quality in feeling, looks, and sound. The retaining spring on the binaurals is coated in this same lumen PVC, so everything looks great and uniform. Even the attachments and attachment pouch are higher quality than the other Spragues I've seen. Though they are plastic, they FEEL denser, more durable. The whole set up comes in a foam-lined cardboard box, not a plastic container. Really classy presentation overall.

3) Comfort. If you've tried other Spragues, you know they can feel like something developed during the Spanish Inquisition. THIS IS NOT ONE OF THEM! The steth came with multiple sets of soft ear plugs that are very comfortable and do a great job of blocking extraneous noises. The other comfort issue with Spragues is their weight. While this steth feels substantial and heavier than other steths I've used, it doesn't feel like a mill stone around my neck. I could see wearing this for a twelve-hour shift, no problem.

4) X-configuration. The dual-tube/lumen Spragues traditionally created noise artifacts when the two tubes rubbed against one another. Trained ears can detect what is background noise and what is important, but we students don't have that benefit yet. This configuration has the two tubes intersecting, then splitting again at the earpieces. Extraneous noise from the lumen is gone, and auscultating (to this novice) is much easier. Plus the tubes don't get twisted up or kinked!

5) MDF stethoscopes have parts for life. I hope I do not have to take advantage of this, and I do NOT know what parts are covered, but if the company wants to hook me up with replacement parts, mores the better.

Conclusion:

I'm trying to be upfront with everyone about this stethoscope and my experience level. I don't represent MDF and I'm not a pro with years under his belt. I'm a rookie student who was hoping to find info on stethoscopes and decided to write reviews here as I tried them out. FWIW, this scope is incredible! I will watch this scope like my classmates watch their Littmanns :) I really recommend this steth for students for all of the reasons listed above plus the fact that it is so versatile (when considering attachments plus an included name tag). Lot's of bang for the buck here. Plus, with no tunable diaphragms, you can concentrate on what you need to hear, and not messing with changing diaphragm pressure on an uneven body, cachectic patient, or a very old person to get various sounds like with Littmann (again, not bagging Littmann, its just a preference thing). I had never heard of MDF and decided to take a chance. I'm thrilled I did, and I hope this write-up helps others make a decision. I will try to update this post as time goes on.

Cheers!

John

This stethoscope came in prestine condition and works wonderfully. It has extra pieces for long term use. I would recommend this to any student or professional.

The shipping was incredibly fast! Shipped from PA to CA, got it within a week of ordering and shipping was free! The stethoscope is good so far, haven't used it for long. I do notice some artifact when rubbing against tubing, but it's easily discernable from actual physiologic sounds. Not too heavy, easy to use. Mine is all black. I expected it to have some chrome/stainless like the bell and ear part but that's ok. Makes no difference. I had a cardiology 3 before but lost it. I don't notice that this one is any less in audible quality except for the artifact which i never had with card 3. Good purchase as it's like 1/3 the cost of card 3!

Cramer Decker Meret PPE ProPack

Cramer Decker Meret PPE ProPackI liked the design of the product, and always like to have my gear accessible instead of cluttering my pockets. When I received the pack I was pleased with the build of it(a little bigger than I thought though), constructed well seemed very durable. The belt clip on the back was very loose and made the pack very floppy, i attempted to take the clip off and use the loops but they were much to small for my 1 1/2" webbed belt, the glove holder was not good at all, 1 pair of gloves will be about all you can fit in the glove pocket, 2 pair is pushing it. It did a good job of holding my sharpie, pen light, shears, and knife on the outside, and the interior was good for holding a small pocket notepad though. I used the pouch for about 1/2 a shift before I was feed up with it.

I've had this product for some time and have been using it as a glove holder for my day bag, but recently took it out as it was really unnecessary. So I decided I would try to utilize it as an on-duty cell phone holder since mine was about to fall apart. I lost the metal clip long ago so I just utilize the loops and they fit quit well on a wide belt. It's a little snug which is nice since it doesn't slide on my belt and make it look like I have a fanny pack (because who wants to be caught dead with an EMS fanny pack?). After a quick modification of placing a Velcro closure for the glove pouch (with industrial sticky Velcro) it now works like a charm for my iPhone 5. Plus I have the option of utilizing the outside pockets for other things....which I haven't figured out yet. All in all it's not necessarily the intended use, but a great one for me.

I find it to be very appropiate size and weight. The feature of reaching your gloves without having to open the bag is really what made me buy it. Sometimes we have fluids in our hands and its just better if you dont have to contaminate pockets or bags just pull on the glove and there!

You can also have penlight, gauze, pulse oximeter inside and all kinds of small stuff.

In my opinion. I like to travel light. All the big heavy stuff go in the jump bag. So its just perfect.

OraMoist Dry Mouth Patch - 1 Box of 16 Patches

OraMoist Dry Mouth Patch - 1 Box of 16 PatchesI have dry mouth from Sjogren's Syndrome which sometimes wakes me at night as my tongues is stuck to the roof of my mouth. I've used Biotene gel, but relief is short term and it must be reapplied when discomfort wakes me up. OraMoist tablets applied to the roof of my mouth have been really helpful, allowing me uninterrupted sleep. They have a slight lemony taste to me (others have found it unpleasant) and last all night. The gel residue IS hard to remove in the morning I use my finger, damp piece of paper towel/Kleenex, warm water mouth rinsing so that it does not interfere with taste of my morning coffee. This slight inconvenience does not outweigh the incredible benefit of enough mouth moisture to sleep at night. The tablet does not cause salivary glands to spurt additional saliva immediately: I stimulate salivary glands with my tongue before application (mouth surface must be moist for tablet to stick) and before I turn out the bedside light.

I received a sample of OraMoist from my doctor. The first few minutes that it was in my mouth, it felt great. However, 15 minutes later I had little saliva. All I had was a disc that was already dissolving. It became gooey and stringy, and I began choking on its remains. One hour later, the disc had dissolved completely, and the packet said that it would last up to four hours. Another online ad said that the disc would dissolve after four hours. Either way, I found it very disappointing. I am glad that I spent no money on it.

Buy OraMoist Dry Mouth Patch - 1 Box of 16 Patches Now

I have suffered from dry mouth since I was a child. Every morning when I wake up, my mouth is so dry that it hurts to swallow. OraMoist works for hours and is clinically proven to work. All you have to do is insert a patch on the roof of your mouth or inside your cheek. It can last up to four hours. The patch dissolves on it's own so it is OK to use at night.

I did notice a difference as soon as I started using this product. It only lasts a couple of hours for me but that's good enough. It's horrible to feel your tongue get stuck to the roof of your mouth and then you have to pull and it hurts! I'm glad there is a product that helps with this now. When I'm awake, it's not so bad because I can just carry around some water, but night time is a different story.

My mouth kept getting so dry at night that I got cracks on my tongue; I got candida twice as a result. My mouth didn't even have to be open--while sleeping it would dry out. There's no way I want to wake up enough to use a rinse when what I really need to do is try to get a good night's sleep.

My dentist gave me a couple of these to try. It works very well. I got at least 4 hours of very good effect and a lesser effect that lasted most of the night. I'm going to buy more.

____________

LATER NOTE: After trying OraMoist, I came across a product called Biotene Oral Balance at the drugstore; for me it works better. It's a clear jelly in a tube (like toothpaste); put a dab on your tongue (tastes like apples). Press your tongue against the roof of you mouth for a moment to spread the stuff out on your tongue, and go to sleep. This is less bothersome and for me much more pleasant than the OraMoist. I quit using the OraMoist and now use Oral Balance exclusively. I keep the tube by the bed in case I need another fix during the night.

_____________

TIPS for using OraMoist if it works better for you: don't put it on the roof of your mouth (I agree with others that this does not create a very good feeling if you put it on the roof of the mouth). Instead, put it in the side of your mouth, between the upper gum and the cheek (where the ballplayers & cowboys put their plug of tobacco). It will take a few minutes to get used to and then you don't notice it. It does get a bit melted (or gummy, or whatever you want to call it), but if you just leave it alone you won't notice. (When you're eating, the food you're chewing in your mouth gets pretty icky, too, but you don't focus on it so you don't notice.)

What I don't like: I would prefer less flavor (therefore, only 4 stars)--I'm not trying to have a dessert experience; I just want to get some sleep. But until a better product comes along, this one is simple and it works.

Trying to teach after sudden onset of Sjogren's Syndrome was almost impossible. OraMoist patches definitely help me, since I still have some stimulated salivary function. As the disease progresses, maybe I will not find these patches to be effective, but for now, they are a life saver. I keep one in my mouth all day and night (with the exception of meal times). I agree with many of the other reviewers that the texture is annoying, and if you don't like citrus flavor, these are not the treatment for you. Xylimelts mints have a much better texture, but for me they only last for 20 minutes, which just is not long enough. Half of an OraMoist patch can last me for 3-4 hours, although as it gets older, it does seem to be less effective. I have not been able to eat with them in, as they tend to disintegrate when I'm eating, plus I find the citrus flavor annoying when I'm trying to eat something that is not sweet. But overall, this is a product that I am currently unwilling to be without, and I will keep buying it as long as it continues to help my horribly dry mouth.

and better then we antisipated

I'm a wildlife rehabilitator and my specialty is reptiles. Most of my patients tend to be turtles hit by cars, and are found with shell fractures. Particularly where it concerns aquatic turtles, I have found these petrolatum dressings to be invaluable for covering the wound in the field, until the turtle can be transported to the rescue for triage and stabilizing. These Xeroform dressings conform well to any area, have great adhesion qualities without being overly messy, can be repositioned, protect the wound from further contamination in transit, and most importantly they reduce the rate of dehydration and dessication of the exposed internal tissues in a turtle with a significant shell trauma. They are a must have item in my kit.
