Article: Tongue-tie, or ankyloglossia, is a disorder which restricts the movement of the tongue and makes it difficult for the host to stick his or her tongue out of their mouth. With ankyloglossia, the band of tissue connecting the tip of the tongue to the floor of the mouth (lingual frenulum) is abnormally short resulting in oral complications. You should consider surgery if you or your child have restricted tongue movement due to ankyloglossia. Ankyloglossia affects more than speech. A person with the condition may also experience problems with oral hygiene, dental health, eating, digestion and sexual function. Ankyloglossia can be caused by environmental or genetic factors. Tongue-tie surgery can be performed on children, infants or adults. Ankyloglossia can negatively affect the ability of an infant to breastfeed. If you're the parent of a child with ankyloglossia, surgery is often the best option. In most cases, the lingual frenulum will not stretch or break on its own. A lingual frenectomy is the most common procedure performed when the lingual frenulum results in restricted tongue movement. This is a relatively simple procedure in which an oral surgeon uses a pair of sterilized scissors to completely remove the lingual frenulum. A lingual frenectomy is a short, 10-15 minute operation usually performed with local anesthesia. There aren't many blood vessels in the lingual frenulum, so discomfort should be minimal during the procedure. A lingual frenuloplasty is performed when the lingual frenulum is too thick or additional repair is needed after a lingual frenectomy. A lingual frenuloplasty is a more exact surgery which aims to alter the lingual frenulum without completely removing it. The goal of lingual frenuloplasty is the same as a lingual frenectomy procedure; both surgeries aim to increase the tongue's length and range of motion. A lingual frenuloplasty is done under general anesthesia. Surgical tools are used, and the oral surgeon uses stitches on the resulting wound. Postoperative complications associated with a lingual frenectomy and frenuloplasty aren't usually serious but can include infection, bleeding and nerve damage. Because lingual frenuloplasty surgery is more involved, there are additional risks of scarring and negative reactions to anesthesia. Both surgeries can be performed using a scalpel or laser. If you have laser surgery to correct your ankyloglossia you won't need stitches and there is usually less pain and bleeding after surgery. Tongue exercises should be performed after surgery to further develop tongue's muscles, length and range of motion. These exercises include: Stretching your tongue up to your nose and down to your chin. Repeat this exercise three or four times. Moving your tongue back and forth across the outside of your top lip. Closing your mouth and moving your tongue between your right and left cheeks. Moving your tongue in and out of your mouth several times.

Article: Earwigs can gain access to your home by way of tiny entry points on your window screens. Use superglue to patch up any small holes and tears on your screens. Fix any gaps that are bigger than 1 inch (2.5cm) by gluing on patches of screen material using a strong adhesive. If your screen is very damaged, replace it entirely to prevent pests from entering your home. Earwigs are likely to gain access to your home through gaps around your doorways or windows. Use a caulking gun to fill in small gaps in these areas. Do this yearly to avoid unwanted pests from entering. Dampness is the ideal condition for earwigs to live and reproduce. Prevent this condition by checking your water sources in the bathroom, kitchen, basement, and outdoors to make sure that there are no leaks. Fix leaking pipes on your own or call a plumber for assistance. Most light bulbs emit a blue wavelength that attracts bugs. Sodium lights, which are often used as grow lamps for seeding plants, emit a more yellow hue. Replace light bulbs on your porch or around your windows with sodium light bulbs. Purchase sodium lightbulbs at hardware stores or online.

Get at least two trees in case you cannot find coal anywhere. Open your inventory with the I or E key and place the half of your wood in to wooden planks. With those, fill the crafting area with wooden planks, so that you get a crafting table to make bigger and better things. Right click your crafting bench to make the following. Stick (used to make other tools): two wooden planks on top of each other Pickaxe (used to mine rock and ores): three wooden planks on the top row and two sticks in the middle of the next two rows On mountains you can often see rock with blackish spots on itmine this. If you cannot find coal go to step 11. Do not mine in your shelter space.
