I did not know why because I did not have many problems with my teeth but I just dreaded it every single time. And then I switched dentists and I have found this guy who makes all the different. He is amazing and it is quick and easy and painless.<br /><br /><a href="https://westheimerdentist.wordpress.com/2016/04/14/consult-a-dentist-about-the-possibility-of-getting-dental-implants/" rel="nofollow">Joanna @ Westheimer Dentist</a>Joannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06493074263309515876noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-416472510902493911.post-90399599200839816152016-01-22T09:03:14.637-05:002016-01-22T09:03:14.637-05:00I love fishducky!!!!

It is terrible that the WORST of situations can create a great blog entry!!!<br />I smile because I, like you and so many growing up, did not visit a dentist until it HURT! The dentist said with a smile, "No problem, we can fix your teeth for $12,000 dollars." My answer was, 'you just told me I needed dentures doc." 'OH NO your teeth are too good to pull'<br /><br />So to mexico with me, a beautiful lady dentist, and $400.00. Maybe it was $600.<br />She done good.<br />BUT NO one likes to visit a dentist, However you make it a hoot!

Isn't that the beginning of the joke that ends with the dentist saying, "Make up your mind--I have to adjust the chair!!"?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-416472510902493911.post-28526420679985908222016-01-21T19:25:23.951-05:002016-01-21T19:25:23.951-05:00Hi Lisa, thanks for your comment on my blog.
Hav...Hi Lisa, thanks for your comment on my blog. <br /><br />Having a tooth ache is a good reason to go to the dentist but an abbess can be very dangerous if not treated. The poison can makes it way to the brain as it did my brother in 1977. He was terrified to go to dentist and kept putting it off. <br /><br />It caused an abscess the size of his thumb to grow in the motor part of his brain and he was having uncontrollable spasms and had to be flown to a special hospital to have brain surgery that saved his life and left him partially paralyzed in one side for a long time. He never regained 100 % of his motor skills in his left side but is doing very well now. That was in 1977.<br /><br />JBJuliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03423754263165266554noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-416472510902493911.post-286568714430427142016-01-21T18:54:54.678-05:002016-01-21T18:54:54.678-05:00We didn't have any preventive care when I was ...We didn't have any preventive care when I was a kid either and my teeth were terrible. The old dentist in the town next to ours was fat and had one eye that wasn't straight...or maybe that's just how I remember him. <br />He would whistle as he worked and even today when I hear someone whistle it makes my skin crawl.<br />When I was drafted into the Army, Uncle Sam frowns on bad teeth so I had two appointments a week for months. I psyched myself into believing that I enjoyed going to the dentist. That's how I got through those LONG months. I don't think I could have made if if one of them had whistled :)Rick Watsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01005727239466916086noreply@blogger.com
