From what I read they died because the government and the firm deemed the risk minimum. So a cheap dead was made on unsafe cladding. The risks were known on all sides but it was a cheaper option and wasn't banned at the time.

In a nutshell unsafe products gets sold off cheaply all the time as long as the sellers aren't liable for it they tend to give zero fucks unfortunately.

Extraction would have meant a scan to check where the nerves were and was more expensive. Plus it's done under a local and I was just having the one out.

Hope your extraction goes well. I need to have one later to remove the tooth with the damaged root but it's a wait till it goes bad thing. Glad they got to yours in time.

Coronectomy time. I had one of my wisdoms done but it had already damaged the root of the other tooth due to NHS budget cuts.

My expirence of the coronectomy was pretty good. Half an hour OP where they remove the crown of the wisdom tooth and then stitch the root into the gum. Stitches start falling out a day or two later and it heals really quickly. I had paracetamol but probably didn't need it.

Reply to comment by gramie in Exposure to nature linked to lower risk of Alzheimer's and Parkinson's. More green space was associated with a lower risk of Alzheimer's while exposure to greenery, park space and 'blue space' such as lakes, rivers & ponds, was associated with a decreased risk of Parkinson's hospitalisations. by MistWeaver80

I read an article about a link to poor income areas having a higher rate of pollution. Turns out exposure to lead fumes from cars causes a drop in IQs and an increase in the chance of someone committing a crime.

To make matters worse this lead stays in the soil and can be released into the air at a later date.

I would say living in a healthier environment must have some sort of impact.

Reply to A study found that people perceive that robots are replacing human jobs at a greater rate than they actually are. Only 14% of workers say they’ve had their job replaced by a robot. Workers who had been supplanted by a robot estimated that 47% of all jobs have been lost to robots. by Brave_Cycle_8745

Depends on the job but anything which is small scale or bespoke means they're not cost effective. Automation isn't new but a designed and built mass capacity machine will easily out perform a robot in most cases.
