I once had a root canal done with an infection in the tooth so pain killer was ineffective. The dentist just kept drilling with tears rolling down my face! I am overdue for a check up:oops:. The only dentists i like are in West TN.

That sounds NASTY! Poor you!
 
My last little one hatched this evening. It's a minor miracle seeing as I (stupidly) thought it had pipped in two different places on the egg. So I opened up the air cell enough to see there were still veins there, so I oiled it up, left it to it, and it popped out just fine. It's still drying off completely and looks to have a bit of membrane stuck to its wing, but it's perky and cuddling with the others. I think it's a caramel.

Morning everyone!

Finally got caught up with you all from yesterday :D Dental appointment went fine but came home with a headache so didn't do much with the rest of the day. I guess we've all had our share of bad experiences with dentists, a good one is worth hanging on to.

@DigMyChicks I hope your son will get another opinion before letting the one dentist fill those cavities. The doc my mom used to take us to would drill every 6 months. I found out as an adult most of those were totally unnecessary but since they were done they've had to be replaced...the original doc just did lots of little 'surface' fillings that have fallen apart over time.

@sunflour your netted run is going to be so nice, the girls will love their time out there.

@JaeG cute little chick, glad he did alright!

@rjohns39 you're right on with the degree comments. Throughout my 33 years in the health insurance business, many times I saw people hired or promoted over more qualified employees simply because they had degrees. And I mean degrees that had nothing to do with business, it was just the fact that someone had that piece of paper. Even so, I am not a proponent of everyone going to college. I believe some people are better suited to learning a trade...the world will always need plumbers, electricians, and the like (and a person can make a very good living from some trades).

Ok, starting to ramble, it must be time for another cup of coffee :)

Glad he finally agrees. Hope it's nothing serious.

Good morning Debby and all. I just don’t want them doing unnecessary drilling on him. My best friends son was just in and he had 3 cavities filled so best friend is going to look at another dentist so it’s not just us. There are many people I’ve heard complaining about it.

Unnecessary drilling isn't good, glad you're going to get another opinion.

I didn't know the dentist I went to as a kid had a reputation for unnecessary drilling until I was an adult working for a health insurance company. I mentioned to my mom once about all the work that guy did that wasn't needed and she said she knew but kept taking us to him anyway because "he was so nice".

Gee, thanks Mom.
