So I decided that since I have dental coverage now in my insurance I would go see the dentist for a check up. I mean, it had been 8 years since my last one!! Oops!! Anywho, they did a cleaning, but discovered that I had a little cavity next to my root canal tooth and that I needed deep cleanings on both sides of my mouth (apparently they could reach too far down into my gums). That meant I had 3 subsequent dentists visits for 3 weeks in a row. Or so I thought!! I went in and got the first cleaning done, in which they had to numb the whole right side of my mouth. All went good. The next visit was too clean the cavity and fill it and maybe cap it!! Well, good old me ended up with another root canal!! Yippee!! The only problem was that when they went to put the temporary cap on it, it broke 4 times. So I ended up being at the dentist office for 3 hours!! They only did half the root canal cause they said they didn't have time to do the whole thing. By the time they were done, they sure did. Well then the next week I got to have 2 appointments. One to finish the root canal and the other to do the left side deep cleaning. When I went in for the rest of the root canal, the temporary cap had cracked in half, but luckily stayed on. Well, the root canal and cleaning are officially done, but I get to go back in the 14th to get a permanent cap and then back in in July for another check up and regular cleaning to make sure the deep cleaning was successful!! So 7 visits and $800 later, my teeth should be perfect!! I hate the dentist!! I did get to see Alicia while I was there (there was a picture on the wall that had a girl in it that looked just like Alicia. I'll post it later if I can get it to send to my yahoo account) and I got vicadin out of the whole ordeal, so it wasn't a complete waste!! Hehehe
