Dentist Today

I went to my dentist appointment today. I dreaded it so much and am glad to have that part over with. I came home and took two Tylenol and went to bed. Problem is, my granddaughter graduates from high school Saturday and here I am with two front teeth out. I told my better half I will hold a tissue over my mouth and he can tell everyone I had dental work and can't talk. My mouth is very sore, but it's stopped bleeding. My better half picked up a pizza for himself and wanted to get broth for me, but I said no. I made a pot of sweet tea instead. I am not feeling my best, that's for sure. Hope everyone had a more enjoyable day. But it will be better.

It's never fun going to the dentist. I had some temporary crowns put in last week, I have to go back next week to get the permanent ones. I hope you manage ok on Saturday, but I'm sure everyone will understand.

I hope your crowns do better than mine. Mine wouldn't stay put. Thanks for your encouraging words.

@jaboUK Mine weren't, the dentist replaced them twice and gave up. Good luck with yours.

Yes it will. Will you be getting a partial for the teeth?

@RubyHawk At least it's going fast for you. I've been without teeth since November, and still have two appointments before I come home with my dentures. I just love the Medicaid process - NOT.

@just4him Oh my goodness, that's too bad.I think my dentist is trying to be helpful because of the bad experience with my crowns.

I don't have anything good to say about dentists. Have bad teeth and need dentures.

I think I was born with bad teeth. Two of my sisters have never had any problem with teeth. They don' know how lucky they are.

ugh, that stinks, it will be so hard to be in high spirits when you are not feeling yourself.

It's rained all day, if it doesn't stop, the graduation will be held in the auditorium and she only has three tickets. That will be for mom, dad and brother. They have about 400 graduating.
