See ya later

2009! Good riddance I say. Here's to a better 2010.

And for those keeping track, or who care.

I went to my regular dentist for my cleaning yesterday. My hygenist was cracking me up (which is hard to do when she's got her hands in your mouth!) She was amazed at how good the one side of my mouth looked after my surgery. She was even calling others into her room to have a look-see. She said she thinks I will end up having to have a root canal in that one tooth that is still giving me fits. She doesn't seem to think the bone will grow enough to completely cover the nerves. And since I already have two root canals in my top front teeth from a teenage fight with the road and the road won, that would be no big deal to me. I remember how much pain I was in for a number of years until those root canals were done because of exposed nerves and how quickly the pain went away once the root canals were performed. I can only hope for as good of results if that is the final outcome with this molar. But we'll see what the Perio has to say when I go see him in April.
