This is not a good day for me.
It may be a week before I can post here again.
I'm headed over to Pendleton to get my teeth cleaned.
After that straight to the liquor store.

Forget the Dentist. Much cheaper to depend on the Buffalo to clean your molars!

At least you're not having a root canal. After having several, I consider a cleaning visit almost like recreation.

I had a root canal that went very badly....

They broke the drill bit off in the root. Caused me to lose that tooth and have to get an implant. Much pain and a lot of time and money.
Now....Everytime I have to go for a cleaning I have a mini panic. I am just scared they will say the dreaded words....root canal!

Did a GP do the procedure or an endodontist? It was a terrible result. Almost makes my teeth ache to read about it.

I do. My teeth and eyes are very good, ears not so much.
The great George Foreman says, "Floss and you can live forever".
Being a Dentophobiaist I brush well. I don't floss but for decades keep Stim-U-Dent at my TV chair. They work great.

I told the hygienist to work quick or I might pass out.
Now I am on the porch with beer. You are allowed to drink early if you go to the dentist and are a wimp.
Any in the Clemson area who need a dentist, I recommend Dr Bruce and Dr Bruce.
I am very, very picky as to dentist, tried a few when my last one retired, did not like them. I found these guys and like them a lot, been going there for about 3 years.
Dr Bruce has a Clemson B.S. in Zoology.
His son has a Clemson B.S. in Microbiology.
They are Solid Orange, love the Tigers.

I have not been to a dentist in 23 years. We make our own dentures out of stale chiclets and paper clips.
