I just had the best ZOOM drop-in ever! We laughed and laughed! There was an old friend there so it was nice to see him too. He's so busy, i don't think he ever sleeps!

I really needed it because my dentist appointment earlier in the afternoon was a major bust. The dentist is new to me, this was only the second time i've seen her. She's a brand new dentist, just graduated. She had planned to do a procedure but said she had talked it over with her colleagues and decided i should see a specialist first. She also showed that she hadn't read my file thoroughly at first as she was surprised to read i'm a nervous patient due to bad experience.

So she seemed very inexperienced and uncertain and indecisive today and i no longer have confidence in her. She didn't charge me for the consult and apologized for bringing me in for nothing. She did try a temporary measure of painting a coating on my sensitive teeth to see if that will help and for how long. I'll try eating raspberries tomorrow to test it out, i can't wait! I might be able to get along with quarterly application of the coating and a bite block for night.

Also, they did a 360 degree X-ray that i was overdue for. So i guess we got a few things done that couldn't have been handled over the phone. I highly doubt i'll see the specialist as my bad experience was at the hands of a dental specialist. I've had enough. My sensitive teeth limit my diet and cause pain twinges but i'm not having some complete overhaul like six crowns just for that. I mainly wanted to know if the pain twinges were cavities that would cause catastrophic pain if left to fester. Now that i know they are not i'm not too concerned about them.

I was so glad to get home and curl up on the sofa with my dog. She's such a comfort!
