visit the dentist regularly

I went to the dentist (actually a friend of mine) and she was great! She x-rayed my teeth, said it was intact and cleand it up a little bit. She said I need to floss and that my visit shoulkd really be once a year. She’ll even remind me when to come :) I really have the best dentist ever! And I’m soooo happy with my teeth now. I really appreciate that they’re healthy:)
That’s done and over with :D

It’s so important to have regular dental check-ups!

I read a story in the Toronto Star about a man that went BLIND because he had dental problems and didn’t have them fixed! I cut it out and sent it to a friend who works in the field to show the staff and patients.

Why? Most patients don’t take dental health seriously. A checkup, twice a year, can catch small problems before they become HUGE ones!

still havent done it.. its been 9 months.. cant believe it.
By the end of this year..I will have gone to the dentist.. no matter what.

Glad other people have achieved this goal but still hard for me..

Hope to visit the dentist by the end of the year. Its been 4 years
since my last visit. Whilst I dont have any pain etc.. I want to set this as a goal so I can do it. It wont be easy as I get panicky.

I don’t think the dentist did a very good job on my filling! several weeks later, and its still a bit tender… Cencelled my next appt, not directly because of that, mostly because of cash-flow, and because I don’t think I really need another filling at this stage… Will go back for another clean in 6 months time – can highly recommend that.

Of course, the dentist did not have one good thing to say about my teeth. perhaps I should make a long-term goal ‘to have a trip to the dentist where he or she can find absolutely nothing negative to say about the state of my teeth – in fact, to impress a dentist with how bloody good my teeth are’. can’t see it happening in the forseeable future though… Have to go back to get some cavities filled – i’m going to hacve more fillings than teeth soon. I can highly recommend having the dentist clean yer teeth, though… mmmm, ring of confidence…
