Dental JOY!!

hahaha...
some of you are aware of my ongoing dental upkeep. the dentist in cali i started going to when i moved back down is great. Dr. George and his office staff of Elda and Stacy have been really great. they work with my payments and schedule better then any other office i've been to. when i lived in bellingham for 3 years i went through 6 dentists!!

Dr. G determined that i have dry mouth. that's what the cause of all the decay was, not lack of brushing. so now i've been using special toothpaste and mouthwash along with trying to floss after every meal. there was one tooth i've been putting off (hoping it would go away i guess) #14. yesterday dr. let me know i am now in the red zone on the cavity. the reason i've put it off is it's about $1010 and he has to take off my crown already on it (permanent) and replace all that. I'm not looking forward to that at all. my friend C has gone through it and said it was ok. i plan to eat a lot of sugar babies and milk duds the night before, maybe i can get the crown off on my own. haha
