Early appointment with DR's PA. Went well, everything ahead of schedule. Boy a 7:30 am appointment with one day out of Hospital is tuff. Going to rest a little today and get fired up for tomorrow.

Peace to all, have a great Holiday weekend and be safe out there!
It is sure good to have you back RRKat.

Just take it easy on screaming at the TV tomorrow!:smiley:
 
The dentist that pulled teeth for 50 cents was in Tazewell, TN. Cheap, but not painless.
My wife's uncle was a dentist in Tazewell, VA (it is up in the mountains of western Virginia, near the North Carolina border.). Tazewell, TN sounds better!

His name was Lutz. He raised a bunch of fine kids. One was a Navy pilot. Both Dr. Lutz and Sherry's aunt were in the service in WWII. That is how they met.
 
My parents were poor and uneducated (neither went past the sixth grade - my mother was married at 14). They never made or encouraged us to brush our teeth. I don't even remember owning a toothbrush as a kid. Hence, I had a partial plate at 17 and all my teeth were gone by my mid-20s. I bought that $50 set of dentures that came in the mail and I have been wearing them for nearly 45 years.

This was sad situation but they didn't know any better. It was just a fact of life that your adult teeth came in, rotted out in a few years and you got dentures.

My generation was the first to have the opportunity to escape that cycle of poverty and ignorance by moving "up north" (I hitchhiked 400 miles) where there were jobs.

The only good part is that I haven't been to a dentist for 45 years and have saved a fortune.
I still have all but 5 of my teeth. The wisdoms are gone and one 12 year molar.

I was forced to brush my teeth. My mom was a bad woman! :sunglasses:
 
Good afternoon! Hasn't been much of a day here. I've slept on the couch all day. Caught a head cold yesterday and I'm at the wrong end of it right now.

Going to sleep some more and I should be good to go for tomorrow.

Ymmot I suggest that your problem is ragweed. It is that time of year.

Go get a good antihistamine and mucinex.

Take 1200 mg of the mucinex every 12 hours and only one antihistamine (loratadine, is the one I suggest).

As a matter of fact, I am not a doctor, nor anything else. I am just a guy who has combated allergies for 60 years. Ragweed is a horror and few people know it.

Google that evil weed.

You're exactly righ about it being ragweed Bert, as I've been dealing with it all week myself. Mine started off with a headache, stuffy nose and my ears hurting. The local news said that this weekend is really going to be bad for it.

No Bert. I'm going to ride this out. I already feel like my head is clearing up. Bummer is, I think I'll be having chest congestion next. Typical cold. I'm also knee deep in an RA flareup. Knees all swoled up like grapefruits, hands are aching, feel like I've been awake for 48 hours straight. This too will pass.

A nice game day bottle of bourbon should be good for what ails me.
 
Well, maybe she can get me some charity work on my aging teeth? I'm scheduled for a 300 dollar extraction on Sept 9.

Anyone have dentures? They are probably cheaper than an implant. Growing up there was a grocery store and gas station across the road from my house. Don, it was Kellys grocery. They gave me the run of the place. Candy all day. Cokes too. A new thing also called Dr Pepper. It's all catching up with my 30 to 50 year old crowns. FCC.
Dentures are definitely cheaper than implants.
 
Not sure why an extraction would be 300. With no insurance at our office it’s about half that, even if it’s surgical. Unless you have to be knocked out?


Hey BKO. Good to see you posting girl. I called about a half dozen Dentist in Paducah and only one was around 200. One was 600. I have been to the one I'm going to before. It will be between 220 and 290. 10% discount with cash. FCC.
