Reply With QuoteOh, I can find a decent dentist without any issue. I've had like 5 in the past 20 years... they keep moving or leaving, or I move.
I am going to think about it...

I'm pretty sure I'm going to need another crown before the year's out.

That badger needs a dentist. Badly!

I'll tell her, she'll be very excited that I "know" a New Yorker. Originally Posted by BleeckerSt_Girl

Crankin, maybe they're concerned about the mercury? I know someone who had all her fillings redone because of her fear of mercury. There was a dentist in town pushing it heavily.
I have two "temporary" crowns in my mouth that I got when I was 16. (Parents never took me back for the rest.) Every dentist I've seen thinks they're fine, since they've been in there that long.

Trouble with that is, removing the fillings sprays pulverized mercury all over everything, you breathe in what you don't swallow. BTDT, no way around it when the old filling wears out or the tooth cracks.

It's not the mercury. It's that "the filling might wear out."
I got an email "customer service" thing from her and I said exactly what I said here.

I'm really lucky with my dentist, when I asked her if we should start changing out my old fillings for new material, she said "they holding up fine, let's wait to change them until they're not".

Did I miss the party? Belated Happy Birthday from me too, Snap!
Half-marathon over. Sabbatical year over. It's back to "sacking shirt and oat cakes" as they say here.

heat
it hit 40C today!!! I went for a ride early this morning but the heat hit me about 15km from home 
. I was desperate for shade & there isn't any on the bike path . I'm so glad for our reverse cycle air con
I had a peek at next week's temps & oooo..it's going to be 27C!!! I'm looking forward to some cooler temps so i can ride to uni. I wanted to this week but with temps around 37C, biking in the middle of the day without any shade just didn't appeal...
