Temporary Cap

Filed under: Blog — maxima @ 7:11 pm

I went back to the dentist.  I got the one permanent cap and then they told me that they remembered that they forgot to put it in the computer for my “forgotten” second tooth.  That was a circular way of telling me …..sorry, only one tooth today.   grrrrrr  I told them that I only had two days in town and then needed to go back and take care of my mom.  So, I told them to start calling other patients and cancel somebody new_dentist.jpgMonday or Tuesday because it had to be done.  The receptionist just stared at me like I was a little wacko and I just looked back at her like I was perfectly sane.  She went away for 10 minutes, then returned and said I could stay and a different dentist would do the second one in about 45 minutes.  I had been wanting to try this other dentist because of the recent problems with my regular dentist.  She was wonderful and even told jokes.  I hope it holds up for two weeks until I get the permanent one.  I am off to take care of mom.  She will be discharged from rehab on Thursday because she could go up 13 steps and walk 50 feet round trip with a walker.  She makes more progress everyday. How do you like the temporary cap from the new dentist? My lip is a bit swollen, but the new dentist said that will go down in a few days.
