They made me feel so good about this! I am not scared for the work that will need to be done.
Thanks for all of your encouragement, sundog! You're awesome.  |
Hi (((((alias))))) You're awesome too!!!!
Wow, it's really interesting to hear about conscious sedation. I was not familiar with that at all. Thanks for telling me about it! I'm sure my current dentist doesn't offer this, but I will for sure inquire about it next time he needs to refer me to an endodontist or anything of that nature
I'm so glad you have such a great dentist and that you're not anxious about the work that needs to be done. WELL DONE for making that appointment!!!!
