Granny's gone and done it again

[Granny Hatchet]

Dentist charges $82.00 just to look at ONE tooth and anywhere from $221.-$509.00 for extraction. I told Robert this and he said NO, They can put silver on it. Not pulled. I cant imagine what that would cost.

I don't know but I read that that stuff alters your God given immune system so it doesn't react the same anymore. I refuse the shot also.

Thanks pert

They can’t accept the fact I am no going get vaccinated. Telling me I need to do it for others or I am a terrible human being.

I guess I'll be terrible with you. I've never even had a flu shot. Us hermits don't do crowds, so no one will be breathing my air anyway. Unless they get too close and invade my personal space... but that's on them.

Anytime you get a virus naturally or through a vaccine, it changes you to some extent depending on the virus. Some, like chicken pox, never go away, and bits of them remain in your body forever, which is why you can get shingles. Truth is we we are born with all sorts of DNA that originated from viruses and became part of our ancestor's genetic makeup that we eventually inherited. A healthy human is designed to interact with viruses... they're everywhere. No one can control everything all of the time, much as they will try. It should be a choice.

There really aren't that many to ask...

Yelp reviews?
It's hard. I go by the receptionist much of the time. If I don't like the person answering the phone, I move on to the next on the list.

that one was the only local one taking his insurance . Im going to have to pay cash

How local? Is there anyone a little farther out that will take his insurance?

I remember we took him for a dental appt. He did fine.

They want you in for regular visits for preventative care, so they don't have to do costly things like extractions. I haven't been in for a long time. Don't have insurance either, but was blessed with decent teeth. I should probably get my wisdom teeth removed. Don't want to have a problem when I'm older and my bones more brittle. sigh

do you have a gossip page?

Not that I know of. Very few houses out here on a dirt road. Even the other road to town is dirt.

Idk, I have never used Yelp. Maybe I should look up dentists and see what reviews they have. If I can find any.
