Eight Fillings Later
Lost a good chunk of the working day today after heading to the dentist for a noon appointment.
Admittedly I had forgotten to book this appointment and eight fillings later, perhaps this was the best way to go as I didn't have time to think about what was coming. As it turned out, I spent almost 2 hours in the chair while my dentist filled the deep grooves of my molars with some sort of resin for preventative purposes... the old fillings had chipped away over the years. The result of my previous treatment is that I was left with my first cavity - which was drilled out today without freezing.
I now have spectacular-coated molars whose protective coating will last... for an unspecified time frame. Thank goodness for dental plans!
