Smaky’s D-Day

November 6th, 2006

No I am not storming any beaches, if I were to be on a beach I’d probably be laying there getting my tan on. Today is Smaky goes to visit the dentist day (d-day) for the 1st time in almost 2 years. You might say 2 years between visits isn’t that bad, its not optimal but should be ok. However did I mention that the last time I went to the dentist I already had 6 cavities and needed a night guard because I grind the hell out of my teeth when I sleep apparently. I never made follow up appointments to get those cavities filled or that nightguard. Yes I suck and I don’t pay proper respect to my teeth, and there is no excuse. I just really hate the dentist and I hate flossing, I don’t know why but flossing drives me nuts ~_~. But if I want to keep some teeth into my old age I better start taking care of my teeth. So today we will find out how bad the damage really is. I’m booked into the dentist for the next 4 Mondays straight.
I plan to get everything done and hopefully I learn my lesson this time. I just hope I don’t have to do any root canals but if I do have to do root canals i prob won’t be so negligent on my dentist visits again ever as long as I can afford it. As a consultant I don’t have any dental coverage but for this year I should be ok as I have money saved up and as this dental work will easily over the $1300 mark that lets me write off my medical expenses on my taxes this year. I already have $450 from glasses and $100 for some cream for my dry skin. I expect all my dental work ill cost at least $1200 this time around, but if I have root canals it’ll go up a lot.

Anyways next time I want to skip out on dental work someone please hit me with a frying pan and drag me to the dentist’s chair, k thx.

    Call me ignant, but I thought Canada had SPS health care. Does this not include dental? I guess another thing is… shouldn’t people visit the dentist every 6 months too? Haha, well that’s the recommendation in the US, and maybe that’s why the dentists here are raping the consumers of all their money!

    It doesn’t include dental.

    And pfft, forget about your teeth. By the time you’re 80 and nearly dead, nobody will give a rat’s ass about how you look anyways ;) .
