AnneTheWriterThis week, a very special "THANK YOU" to my daughter, who not only drove me to and from the dentist (where I was put under heavy sedation) AND did my grocery shopping, but she also cleaned up my car and clothes after my stomach… well, "didn't make it all the way home okay." (I'm feeling much better now.)I am one very lucky Mom.❤(It's <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/HootinTootinTuesday" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#HootinTootinTuesday</a> again!

Aaron PareckiThe 3D X-Ray machine they have at the endodontist is really cool! You can look at an X-Ray of any slice of the tooth!

John McLearI need to make a decision on root canal vs implant.Root canal is quick and cheap but won't be a bite & cosmetic improvement. The cosmetic is just a small gap in my lower teeth, I'm not insecure about it. The angle of the tooth is what's causing me to feel like I need to physically push it periodically and that causes me some discomfort.The implant is time exhaustive and expensive but can address the bite & cosmetic issue.Any advice anyone??<a href="https://mastodon.green/tags/teeth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#teeth</a> <a href="https://mastodon.green/tags/dentist" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#dentist</a> <a href="https://mastodon.green/tags/RootCanal" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#RootCanal</a>

Bo JacobsMy relationship with my dentist is basically "catch and release." They tear up my mouth a bit and then release me back into the wild until they catch me again next week. <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/RootCanal" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#RootCanal</a>

ErtainMonths ago, I was at my <a href="https://mast.linuxgamecast.com/tags/dentist" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#dentist</a>, getting fitted for a <a href="https://mast.linuxgamecast.com/tags/crown" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#crown</a> (previously, I had a <a href="https://mast.linuxgamecast.com/tags/RootCanal" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#RootCanal</a>). The tool to scan my teeth for the eventual crown was pretty neat. The handheld device was able to 3D scan my teeth and gums, including the colors. What was strange about the ordeal was that my dentist used a gaming laptop to take the scans. I guess the tool makers didn't want to make a separate device for the tool. They figured, "All we need is something to fully run Crysis and we're cool."
