See your dentist regularly [View all]

Finally went to the dentist after about 8 years. Not my favorite thing to do so I keep putting it off.
I know I have 2 damaged fillings plus a dire cleaning need.
He found a loose crown and under it was an infection.
Bummer. Out with most of the remaining tooth but ended up at an oral surgeon to get a root piece he couldn't get to.
No I have a raft of dental appointments. I will be getting an implant for the now missing tooth. Nothing but fun.

Get your regular check ups.
