Dental care

We've heard about how many neglecting annual screens and doctors visits. We need to add dentists.

Spouse always had good teeth with bi annual cleaning visits, the last time was last summer. When the next six months visit was due, this was when the open heart surgery was scheduled (after all the Holidays Covidiots were flushed through the hospital system) and then was told to wait six months after the surgery before a dental visit.

So last week found a new dentist (the previous one sold the clinic, was hit too hard by Covid) and... what a disaster.

Many deep pockets, a couple of cracked teeth, an old root canal that needs a new look...

Yes, we have dental insurance with a $1200 annual max for each of us... will see.

So, if you and family members have not seen a dentist for over a year - get going!

(I have a gums disease and, too, saw regular dentists fewer times and finally decided to visit a periodontist with my own disaster and now am undergoing "scaling."
