tooth update

.

Well.

I don't know exactly where the error happened, but the number I wrote down for the substitute dentist was incorrect. A 9 and a 5 were swapped..... I thought it was odd, last night, when the answering machine didn't have a message stating the business name, etc.

I bothered some poor woman this morning when I called again.

Then I looked the number up in the phone book, called, got a sensible message with a home number, and called that. The dentist's adult son was home, so I spoke to him.

And learned that dad is up north four hours away........... Hmmm. Hard to cover for someone else if you're four hours away, I would think.......... Just me being unreasonable as usual, no doubt..............

I also called back the contact from my practice, just to make sure that she had the correct number for the sub.

She said there was someone from my practice who might be available to glue the thing back in, today, and in fact there was, and it's now back in my head where it belongs.

Sheesh.

The woman who was gracious enough to help me when she was supposed to be getting ready for her daughter's baby shower sent me home with a bag full of supplies so I can practice dentistry on myself and glue it in yet again should it come out.

Hope for me it doesn't.....................

I eventually did speak to the substitute dentist, who will be home tomorrow afternoon, but I'd just as soon be done with this until the end of this month when I go in for the permanent crowns.
