Thankful Thursday 1-9-2014
Today I am thankful for a great dentist!!!!!
I’m not joking either!
Ever since I can remember I have had some pretty insane dental experiences.
My last dentist said, ” oh your teeth look great, I barely have to touch the”
Nearly three years later, (yeah I know) I sat in the dentist chair two hours on two different days and my teeth are CLEAN!
And thankfully I don’t have a ton of dental worked needed to show for it.
The last dentist had a long list of “things that NEEDED to be done” which included 2 bridges.
So I asked my new dentist if that she be added to the list of things to be done and he responded with these three questions.
1. Do you have enough teeth to adequately chew your food?
My answer yes, I am only missing 1.
2.does missing that tooth make you feel self conscious?
My answer no, it’s way in the back
AND MY MOST FAVORITE QUESTION….
3. Do you have an exorbitant amount of money that you don’t know what to do with?
My answer (with a chuckle). No.
Then you don’t need any bridges!
I have seen this new dentist now a few times and he definitely manages my pain better….and does a far more thorough job than any other dentist I know!

I am so thankful to live in a state that is fully funded to help families with kids who have autism. New York is so often picked on for so many things and in reality there are so few states as New York. Without New York our son would not have the opportunities he does. It truly is such a great blessing!
