Today I had a dental appointment for what I expected to be just a routine cleaning! Oh-but- no! They are out to get ALL my $$$, I think!
They did a full mouth series of x-rays AND regular cleaning for a total of $237.00!
PLUS- I have to go back for some DEEP cleaning on some back teeth! Didn't make the appointment yet- but will soon!
(Another, almost, $300.00!) Yikes!!
And they recommend cleanings every 3 months! Of course they do! And they say, "floss, floss, floss!" (This would seem to work against them...but then, I guess they know, no one is relentless with their flossing- so they know it won't be that effective - and we (I)-will be back.
...As much as I hate having strangers probing around in my mouth with sharp objects and tiny vacuums and unexpected gusts of air and streams of water- I will be back, regardless !
Last words the girl told me as I was leaving...after giving me the news of this expensive work I 'm committed to... and after 2 hours of invading my mouth, was, "Have a good day!"
LOL! Yah, I will!
~~~
And I AM having a good one! I have been watching my new Sarah Video- "Sarah McLachlan, Afterglow Live." This is sooo good!
I just wish everyone could have this to enjoy!

....just another tricky day in the life of Junie Rose!

Finally able to get to your comment section. Dental work is a pain - sometimes literally and as you say, expensive. I saw Charles' birthday pics, happy late birthday to him, and I also saw two of my favorite brands of ice cream in one of the images, Breyers and Edy's - yum! ec
ReplyDeleteHi, ec -and thanks for coming by.
ReplyDeleteYes-I didn't like anything at all about that dental appointment today!
...about that ice cream...that Breyers cherry vanilla was superb! :)

Oh, ick!! I had a day last year when I went in to have an aching tooth looked at and ended up with a root canal!!
ReplyDeleteI'm gone for a few days and Charles decides to have a birthday while I'm gone...the nerve!! hehe Happy belated Birthday dear Charles, sounds and looks like he had a very special birthday:-) Loved all the pictures!! Oh yuck, you had to go back to the dentist again and they've already given you another invitation to come visit...rather you than me! lol xoxo
