I have braces, of course, and I am not happy with my present orthodontist. Could I find a new one?

I started taking Apri about a month ago and started my week of white placebo pills this past Sunday and have not yet gotten my period, is this normal for the first month? I have taken the pills at the same time every day, give or take 5 or 10 minutes and I have not missed any. My periods have always been irregular. My last one started February 11th and ended on the 15th. My boyfriend and I started having unprotected sex one week after I first started taking the pills.

Is what I'm going through normal? Do I have anything to worry about?

I have a CD account with Choice One bank from an accident I got into about 9 years ago. The initial deposit was about $12,340.00 with about 4% annual interest. On my Certificate of Deposit it says that the money is to be held in my name until I turn 18 years ago age, which will be in May of this year. My maturity date is not until August 2009 because the account automatically renewed. My question is, do you think I would qualify for a waiver and not have to pay that penalty fee? If I would have to pay it, how much do you think I would have to pay?

I can't remember the name of it.

It's absolutely hilarious.

Will High School Musical 2 eventually come out on DVD like the original?

Alright, I've been in an on-line relationship with this guy for over a month now. He lives in Pennsylvania and I live in Michigan. We really, really like each other and we always talk about our future together. Well, a few weeks ago he went on a mission trip with his church to Mississippi and he said he met "this amazing girl" there, which didn't really bother me at first. But then he said she lives about 30 minutes away from him, so that kind of worries me a little. He said he just wants to be friends with her and that he still wants to be with me. I believe him, but he never stops talking about her. I do trust him.

So my question is, how can I let him know that he's breaking my heart a little by talking about her so much, without making a huge deal about it? And how can I stop being so jealous?

This evening, my sister told my family that her live-in [he lives with us] boyfriend is dying from cancer [testicular, I believe]. He doesn't have a job [he basically refuses to get one], so he has no health insurance. My sister said he doesn't want to get treated, he just wants to die.

1. How can we persuade him to get treated, or where can he receive treatment without insurance?

2. Can the health department do anything?

We cannot pay for it because times are tough for us right now. Plus, he's not our responsibility.

Also,

3. How can we persuade him to find somewhere else to go without making it seem like we don't want him here?

We just don't want to wake up one morning and find him dead.

More importantly,

4. What can I say to my sister to comfort her?

I'm afraid I'll say something stupid and make things worse.

Sorry, this seems like a lot of questions, but thank you in advance for any suggestions or advice.

If I take chemistry and college writing in high school, do I have to take it in college as well?

This morning I think I bit down too hard while I was sleeping and a bracket fell off. The bracket did not have the archwire going throught it because there isn't enough space for it. Do I need to make an appointment to have a new one put on straight away, or can I wait until my next appointment (May 4)?

I'm not that great at talking. I can never think of anything to talk about. What can I do?

I have braces. Lately I've been noticing that I can move my archwire up and down and I'm sure that's not supposed to happen. Should I get my wire changed? I got my braces about a week and a half ago.

My dentist put on self-ligating brackets, so do I even need the colorful ligatures at all?

Also, what are the benefits of these types of brackets versus other kinds?

I noticed that the dentist did not put a bracket on the very back teeth [they only put the top set on today]. Why do you think this is?

My hygienist didn't seem too crazy about it when we asked about it. I think it will help keep my teeth clean. So do you think I should get one?

I'm interested in going to their Grand Rapids campus. Is it true that their programs do not take long to complete? And is it expensive?

I am VERY interested in this career. I'm aware they do not get paid as much as hygienists.

How can I change it so it shows everything including HTML?

It kind of looks like a small mole or a dark freckle. It doesn't hurt at all. What could it be?

I'm getting braces soon and my hygienist said to get an electric toothbrush. So what kind should I get that will help take better care of my braces?

When should you start using a new strand? I've heard they last a couple days.
