what is it with houses and kids...
just when your floating along
doin ok...
then BAM! a dental appointment rocks my
boat...
I took my kids to the dentist today,
good times,
the airconditioning in the office was out
all the assistants were "sweatin' like June brides!"
...I pretty much expect a little sealant here..
maybe a filling there...
Not today, no today I was told that Mira needs this
crazy ass apparatus to create more upper palate space
CHAching!!!!!!!
but what about all the dental insurance?!?
50% coverage, whew......
but still a chunk of change..
(I guess I wont be getting that massage this month)
I take them in on Thursday morning
for the 'procedure'
Mira saw the thing, but has no idea..
(I better stock up on bubble gum tylenol)
I wore braces...
wore 'em to my senior prom...
HATED THEM!!!!
in the end...
my teeth look great.
Shit
You are still a freak. What the hell is up with this site? Did you get this communique? Its only 62 degrees but sunny here today. I must be off to perpetuate my whiteness.
Ouch! You still deserve a massage.
I have pretty good teeth... first and only cavity when I was 25. But I did have braces and before I could be fitted for them I had to wear a bridge inside my mouth that spread open my upper jaw. Every three days my mother would turn a little screw inside my mouth that stretched the bridge a little wider and I could feel my skull splitting open with each turn. It actually wasn't painful, but I was 14 at the time. Might be scarier for someone younger.
