Michael has Eshiva & Dorian at the dentist. He is getting his sealant done and cleaning and stuff. Eshvia got her cleaning done – they got some of the purple off! Not all of it I can’t afford to replace her crowns out of pocket, so… when she’s 20 we’ll have a funny story to look back on. The girl who loved purple so much, her teeth were purple for three years lol

I’m headed back to my dentist to have a filling removed and replaced. There is an air pocket or something in there and I haven’t been able to eat on the left side of my mouth or drink without a straw for two weeks. On Monday I went in, and the dentist I saw confirmed there was a problem, but couldn’t fix it b/c he didn’t do the filling. Fucker. So, no charge on Monday, and no charge today because it’s their fuck up. I thought part of the filling came out, but they said that was fine *shrugs* What do I know, it’s just my mouth, right?

I also noticed my silver fillings are gone – no one told me they were drilling them out and replacing them. I was told I have four cavities to fill (in two molars). Would have been nice if someone had told me they were magically under fillings I’ve had since I was 12 or so. Not that I mind the mercury gone, but seriously, if there was no reason for it, it’s worse to have them removed than to keep them from what I understand.

I’m also a bit worried about them taking this filling out to replace, because what if they seriously fuck up, get too close to the nerve, or remove too much of my actual tooth and I wind up needing a root canal or a crown or something? Is that also their fiscal responsibility?

Ugh, I hate doctors, of all types.
