Carol's teeth revisited

[Guest guest]

Ok, it's been a while since I talked about teeth to you. With

Gloria less than that.

Okay, I have that crown on the eye tooth upper left that is

temporary, need to get to lab and see if the color matches and then

have the permanent crown put in.

Have that bottom eye tooth, left side, front too sort of, that is a

half tooth. The dentist said that tooth is dead and needs to be

pulled out. Well, tonight it is aching slightly so I knocked on it

and I feel it. Now if it was DEAD, doesn't that mean DEAD without

feeling or is that DEAD meaning ALIVE???????????? It is laying down

in a very ackward position and annoying when I even tap it to eat a

little bit with. Now I don't want to pull it as I will have a space

and then if I ever get an implant I could end up with surgery for

the bone area like my daughter did.

Now I need two root canals next to that bottom tooth just referenced

above. These teeth are costing me a fortune.

Now the other teeth, where I even have crowns put in are bleeding

and that was done within or less than a year.

The root canals I talked about here my dentist said I need a

specialist who can drill deeper. It's just a total teeth mess

besides the tons of money it could end up costing me.

I am trying to save the teeth I have.

The specialist told me to get to the dental school to save money

months back and the dental school twice has said my work is too

extensive for them, meaning their students. I have a mouth that is

too advanced for the dental school obviously.

The specialist told me doesn't look like I got a good dentist who

actually referred me to him. So I think this week I am back to see

what the specialist has to say, get the lab to see the color matches

and see what we are talking about with the specialist saving my two

teeth. It is outrageous that I can't find a good dentist even

without insurance previously. This plan is excellent, but still I

need to find a dentist who knows what is he doing. I'm so

frustrated with this experience. I'll see what the specialist says

and then take it from there.

I'm just shocked that the DEAD tooth has now come to life. Maybe

it's those beds I am using, mayhbe it's my imagination or maybe it's

GLORIA wishing I was a dentist so I can take care of her teeth too.

Who knows.

Stay tuned. The sad part of all this dental talk is that it can

affect a healthy heart. Now is that getting me more motivated by

the day? Yes and will become proactive this week.

So remember this could be your Dental Week too and not have to wait

for society to call up their own week whenever they desire.

Shari, sure wish I had your uncle as my dentist. I know it's not

possible, but it is possible for me to go to Italy, vacation, stay

with my husband's smelly perfumed brother and my hubby saving tons

of money too.

Take care all.
