With many people out of a job these days I am sure there are loads of others out there without insurance. I haven't had dental insurance since I last worked in '05 but Ido go to the dentist twice a year and have to pay cash. But I get a discount which is nice.Cheyennehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13770041132796530904noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6471031006553442541.post-57118586824898607752011-09-15T11:10:21.835-04:002011-09-15T11:10:21.835-04:00Barefoot-- LOL!

I have an aunt who had all her teeth pulled in her early 30s, thinking it would be easier to maintain falsies. Turned out those falsies are pretty expensive and not comfortable. <br /><br />Glad I'm not the only one who had teeth issues while pregnant. I thought I was crazy when my teeth ached while pregnant. I figured all the nutrients were being diverted to the baby, so the rest of me was lacking. <br /><br />I guess I should be grateful that the teeth being pulled are the ones people can't see-- at least my smile is still nice. I am drilling it into my kids to make sure they take care of their teeth and show them Old Rotten to scare them into brushing and flossing! At least something good will come from Old Rotten!! :o)jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08772053505930801670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6471031006553442541.post-53442049776294768052011-09-14T23:01:17.379-04:002011-09-14T23:01:17.379-04:00Proofread, fool Barefoot!

Each pregnancy was a new adventure into malnourishment (for me, not the parasitic life inside my belly), and had teeth literally shattering in my mouth.<br /><br />Things never did get better. With money tight, I ended up losing more teeth than I care to admit, and now alternately long for falsies (then, when my teeth hurt I can take them out!) and dreading the day when the last of my teeth succumb to the curse of "Old Rotten". <br /><br />Glad you are no longer in pain, and hope you soon adjust to the new "hole in yer head" ;-)barefoot gardenerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18089017268890241495noreply@blogger.com
