One is 17 years old and the other 3 years old. The newer installation came after an accident..<br /><br />My front left crown ahd been a bit wobbly for a month or so but I was delaying the dentists partly for the reasons you graphically describe and partly becasue all dentistry is private and I need to schedule when I was going to rob a bank to pay for it.<br />I then took my youngest son to an amusement park for the day. We went on the coaster and although terrified, I did it. "let's go again mum - in the front car". I agreed.<br /><br />I screamed as we went hurtling down a big hill, the pressure wave hit my open mouth and out popped the wobbly crown...<br /><br />Any idea how fetching the one tooth look is on a woman? The miserable operatives refused to close down the ride to hunt for my lost tooth. Humpf!<br /><br />But I gave my son the best day ever, we stayed at the park all day, taking every opportunity I could to widely grin at people.<br /><br />My philosophy is make the best of whatever comes your way!<br /><br />Smiles.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5464278377527384610.post-45676361406717649852010-09-11T15:47:46.084-07:002010-09-11T15:47:46.084-07:00Ginny, remember "Little Shop of Horrors"...Ginny, remember "Little Shop of Horrors"? Well, my first dentist was just like Steve Martin in that movie.<br /><br />Joann, you and Angelia with those sexy dentists! Actually, when Rod's dad retired, I did go to a sexy dentist for a while--then we moved.<br /><br />I haven't had to take even a Tylenol, which is surprising, given my exceptionally low pain threshold. Did I spell that right? Oh, well--I have aged about 10 years this summer, and I attribute my bad spelling these days to THAT!<br />Glad you're home, sweetie!

I have floss in my car, my purse, everywhere. <br /><br />When I was a little girl, if I would flinch because my dentist with his big ass hands and bad dentist skills would hurt me, he would whisper in my ear, "Don't be such a baby." <br /><br />I hated the dentist for most of my life. But then I met the dentist of my dreams. He specializes in gentle dentistry and he has never, ever hurt me. And his dental office smells like French Vanilla instead of the sickly smell of antiseptic. Oh, and then there's the fact that he is hot, hot, hot. I recommend those kind of dentists, the hot ones, to everyone. <br /><br />I hope your mouth feels better. Take the pain meds.Joann Mannixhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11163491824085428085noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5464278377527384610.post-50337490826205205822010-09-11T11:02:32.231-07:002010-09-11T11:02:32.231-07:00My childhood dentist was a sadist for sure.

Luckily #2 husband was an avid flosser. The best part of the marriage was taking that habit with me. Now, I floss TWICE at night. Once with a bristle pic, then reg floss.<br />I really do love my dentist. He is very talented and easy on the eyes since he is blonde and built very nice. Can't beat those Norweigans!<br /><br />Hope you feel better!!Angelia Sims https://www.blogger.com/profile/07651508374785160575noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5464278377527384610.post-11016600224270037212010-09-11T07:33:39.903-07:002010-09-11T07:33:39.903-07:00HAHAHAHA!

My mother ignored a sore tooth because she thought she was indispensable at work. As it happened, she collapsed at work and was rushed to the hospital.
