A Trip to the Dentist 1 comment

Pros:

• I now have clean teeth. Yay!
• The hygienist who cleaned my teeth was amazing. The best cleaning I think I’ve ever had.
• I really like the dentist.
• Everyone spoke English, but was willing to teach me dental words in German. (dental floss = die Zahnseide)
• I got a new toothbrush.
• I don’t have any cavities.
• The dentist and the hygienist both said I have very nice teeth.

Cons:

• On the way to the dentist, I had to watch a woman on the u-bahn continuously take out her dentures and play with them. Not encouraging.
• While I don’t have any cavities, there is a reason for my toothache. The three fillings I do have are all loose and have to be redone. Ugh!
• The brown spot that showed up on my crown a few weeks ago is actually a scratch that has to be filed down.
• No dental insurance means we have to find a way to pay the €1.400 ($1,900) bill we are going to get next week.

Anyone getting a tax return that they don’t know what to do with?
