Good for you Doc! Sounds like things are about to start falling into place quickly for you. I've got to confess. and my Periodontist told me this too....that I haven't been good to the profession of Dentistry in my life...lol. I'm 63 years old, and I have 2 fillings. Had those since I was 13 or 14, and they are the exact same spot as the 2 fillings I had in my baby teeth! That's weird to me. It's a thousand wonders my teeth survived as well as they did considering my former Dentist's hygienist scared me off in the mid 80's! I didn't even go to a dentist because of her for about 5 years! You and
@Kent mosby might get a kick out of this. She was cleaning my teeth one day, and got to telling me how she was also a massage therapist on the side, and did that at night. Keep in mind that this was in the 80's when nobody wore latex gloves to work in your mouth! I was laying in the chair, and all I could think about was, here she is with her fingers in my mouth...and last night she was massaging some big fat mans hairy/sweaty ***! Every time they called to make me an appointment for a cleaning after that, I would ask if Barbara was still the hygienist, and when they said she was....I said let me call you back. That went on for 5 years and I finally went to another Dentist, who was my new wife's Dentist. Stayed with him till he retired, and now the young man who bought his practice is doing a great job. Every time he puts the sunglasses on me and checks my mouth for oral cancer with the laser thingy, he thanks me for not smoking, dipping, or chewing....lol.
