And now I know exactly where I am headed. With my teeth at least.
Last night I saw Dr. Hartman and he explained what he felt was a priority (which at first he said was my two broken teeth, and I explained I have that under control and a plan in motion), and what wasn't quite so urgent. After telling him my plans with the oral surgeon he suggested that I get the fillings on my top left teeth done first, and then we will go from there. He also explai........
**OH MY FREAKING GOD! It is WAAAAAAY too early for me to have to be on the phone with my boss! Love her, but her and computers (hell, technology in general!) DO NOT get along.... Ugh... Okay, back to what I was saying before I was so rudely interrupted...)
Dr. Hartman also explained WHY they feel I will need a root canal on one of my lower bicuspids. He even showed me on the X-rays! They hope that they won't have to but they would rather have me ready for the worst case scenario (which is something I do all the time!). There is a cavity in my bicuspid in just the wrong spot so that when they get all the decay out it may be to the root anyways. I hope that they will just be able to fill it (that would save me a butt load of money!), but I am prepared if they have to do the root canal.... *sad face*
So, at this point I am scheduled to go in for fillings on the 27th after work.... Yes, that's right I get to have most of my dental work done on Tuesdays, my most hated and despised day of the week. It might actually give me something to look forward too on Tuesdays once I get past my hatred of needles in my mouth, because I know the ultimate outcome is a happy, and healthy mouth (super cheesy right? ha ha!)... And I am still planning on getting my implants in July, I just need to figure out how we go about getting our Care Credit upped... I really do not want to have to use any other credit card for my surgery especially since we can get a twenty four month no interest plan on our Care Credit, which would be easy peasy to get paid off.
I guess we will figure this stuff out as we get there... Now to get to work making other peoples lives miserable!
