Day Al Dente

Today I went to the dentist to deal with a nagging pain. He had warned me that there was a good scenario and a worst-case scenario. guess what, it turned out to be the worst-case scenario! Two back teeth were affected. Being conservation minded, my dentist tried to preserve the two teeth. This meant root canal on each of them. After 75 minutes of this, no luck. So it came down to extraction - yes both of them. The last time I had an extraction some years ago now it meany a visit to a macular surgeon. this time I left it to our small-town local dentist and he did a superb job. This does not mean it was comfortable. After trying the normal way he had to esort to splitting up the tooth and extracting the pieces. Of course, this had to be repeated a second time. Two and a half hours later I had to rucsh home to prepare for a Slide Show Presentation of which I'm a foundation member. I couldn't miss it. Now, here I am trying to cope with my blog.
