I finally got my top braces on a few days ago, and was given several tools to help maintain good oral hygiene. One of the tools

was a little brush, (I believe called a soft pick,) used to clean plaque and food beneath the wire. I've used this daily, and after use it has quite a bit of plaque on it. (I brush and floss diligently as well.) The worse part is that the brush has this musty, moldy odor to it. I've only been using it for a few days, and already it smells rancid. This is not from my breath however, I'm wondering what it is from and how to prevent it? Also would you have any tips for helping eradicate food stuck between teeth that may be hard to get out with floss? Thanks!

Well I think it smells because of the plaque on it, and a good way to clean in between your teeth is a water pic.

klemol [59]

Answer:

d. Training to relax when confronted with anxiety-arousing stimuli

Explanation:

Systematic desensitization is a type of technique used in cognitive therapy and it is based on the principle of classical conditioning.

The goal of this technique is to remove a phobia or a stimuli that causes anxiety and substitute it with a relaxation response.

This technique has three phases:

  1. The patient is taught deep relaxation and breathing exercises.
  2. The patient creates a fear hierarchy starting at stimuli that provoke the least anxiety and building up to the most fear provoking ones.
  3. The patient starts at the bottom of the hierarchy with the least unpleasant stimuli and practices the relaxation technique.  

The patient practices this relaxation until the stimuli doesn't provoke any anxiety and then he continues with the next stimuli in the hierarchy until he reaches the top stimuli and the anxiety is removed.

Therefore, we can say that relaxation when confronted with anxiety-arousing stimuli is a really important part of systematic desensitization.  Therefore, the correct answer is d. Training to relax when confronted with anxiety-arousing stimuli
