YAY for awesome day at the dentist!!! That laser thing sounds wonderful. I always hated the drill.

Hi, JLT. I hated the drill too!! I also hated the shot of Novacaine. I mean even though they would try to hide the needle from you, but you could still see it coming. I was expecting it (both the drill and the shot) but no and it was great!!!!
Phase 1 of my treatment isn't quite over yet ( I thought it was, but )!
And, I have to go back to the dental office on Monday . But, I am getting less and less afraid, so that's a GOOD thing!

Wow Jen...I love the way they took care of your cavities! I sure wish they would have that procedure at my dentist office. I do have to say though a 5 hour sit in the chair for your splint thing sounds so LOOOOOOOOONG!!!!

GLad you got things taken care of though!!

[JLT]

how did things go today?

[Cielo]

Yeah, how'd it go today?

It seems I AM done with phase one. They took impressions on Monday and I went back on Wednesday for the analysis. I guess my bite is corrected enough. I am going to get caps for my upper front teeth on Dec. 2nd. So I am very happy that we are moving ahead.
They warned me that I will probably be in the office all day, as it takes a while to do.
I'm, of course, a little apprehensive about this procedure, but I'm not petrified, thanks to all the positive dental experiences I've had so far!

I was scheduled for a dental appointment on Wednesday Nov. 25th to get my temporary veneers, but I had to cancel it. Thursday, of course, here in the states is Thanksgiving. I am having my family over for Thanksgiving dinner, my brother is coming from Minnesota. I didn't want to have ANY discomfort or trouble with those temporaries during the holiday.
In fact, I probably won't want to do it in December on account of my being SO busy at work due to Christmas. So we'll have to see what happens!!
Thanks for listening,
