There’s a few reasons why that can be relevant.
In the US, a lot of dentists use nitrous oxide for pain management and/or sedation. Taking a blood pressure is one of the safety precautions for pretty much any sort of sedation. In Europe we usually use local anaesthetic; it’s less invasive.
There are also certain complications that can arise from a high BP. It can result in more bleeding, which is not ideal especially if the patient is taking medication like blood thinners.
And on a general note: a lot of people don’t know they have a high blood pressure. It’s a good thing to check occasionally if you don’t. High BP can have a wide range of health concerns.
My brother and I have a younger sister. When she was a teen, we were blown away by the fact that girls’/women’s clothes don’t have pockets. Or worse, that there’s even FAKE pockets. Meanwhile, I was wearing cargo pants throughout high school.
Women carry more stuff than us men. Clearly they do NEED pockets. And yet they don’t get them. I’ve never even seen a fake pocket on men’s jeans.
Right now, I’m wearing pants with pockets so wide, I can fit a Nintendo Switch or a smaller tablet in them. I could fit TWO large phones AND my wallet in one of them.
Women are definitely missing out on having proper pockets.
