More time and money I don't want to spend
Jun. 4th, 2010 11:31 amDamn. I had my twice-yearly dental cleaning this morning. My old dentist has moved to Washington. He left his practice to a new dentist (arg! he looks like he's 20!) who I saw for the first time today. He seemed pleasant, competent, thorough, and has small hands; something I appreciate in a dentist.
But being young, he's a techie and distrusting of old technologies. Apparently, some of my 20 year old dental work is no longer up to snuff. And I should get a one of those swanky new electric toothbrushes, and fancy new mouthwash. Sigh. I knew this day was coming, but I had been hoping to put it off a year or two. Actually, I do get to put some of it off until next year, as everything he wants to do is going to overrun my dental insurance's maximum output. The patient manager is going to call me this afternoon with a two-year plan. Maybe I'll just stay in denial and let the call go to voice mail. This is the sucky part of adulthood.
