Back from the dentist. Again.

I’m sitting here waiting for the feeling to come back into my mouth. Yep, I’ve been to the dentist. Again. See, what had happened was… I went to the dentist Friday and I was taking my prescription and was calling around to arrange my wisdom tooth extraction. Then, on Monday Morning, I found a hole in my teeth. A hole that my new dentist’s super duper x ray machine (and exam) seemed to miss. I called the dentist’s office, alarmed at my discovery, and they told me that the hole I saw was in my wisdom tooth. I had a decision to make. Was I going to spend time and effort convincing my dentist the hole was there? Or was I going to get on the phone, get a  new dentist and get it fixed? I am really thankful for the drugs and the friendly atmosphere, but I have a new dentist. And a repaired tooth. And an appointment to get my wisdom teeth out Saturday. I can live with that.

    Dentists can have a say about your teeth but in the end it will be you to decide what should be done.

      That’s true, but I know I shouldn’t have to fight one to establish the presence of a hole that I see.

    It’s almost January and most people time for “New Year Resolution.” I have researched many places online and haven’t found

    much about “dentist New year Resolution.”(Funny!!) Just thinking of many ideas to get individuals who don’t see dentists on

    regular basis to invest some “times” and visit a local dentist. Your ideas will be appreciated. Thank you
