I bet I was in 6th grade.
I'm grouchy because I just lost another molar. dentist found a crack, I went to my own oral surgeon for a second look and he said, "I actually agree with your dentist - you can not clean down that deep for that crack with floss".
"!@#$!$#!@ okay should I schedule an appointment, nothing hurts, it isn't loose"
"we can do it now"
implant #2 is underway. my dude is good. he is 100% pain free. he offered me prescription for pain go bye-bye pills, but I declined. I am operating under his rules. no drinking straws, no booze, no gargling, etc.
my dentist retiring was such bad timing. hahaha...oh well. pudding for breakfast is fun.
