👎 I haven’t been to the dentist in 2+ years
👍 But I actually have dental insurance
👎 The dentist I’ve been going to for years doesn’t accept my new insurance
👍 But the fancy dentist office (sorry, “Studio”) in my building does accept my insurance
👎 They can’t get me a new customer appointment until mid-March
👍 Unless I want to take the slot that starts :20 min from then
👎 When I asked the dental assistant how she was doing today, she replied “Not good, but here we are”
👍 But she was very gentle with the cleaning, and wonderfully quiet (eg. didn’t yell at me for never flossing)
👎 She didn’t laugh at any of my “jokes”
👍 The office is sleek & modern, with a TV on the ceiling, and headphones to listen
👎 But the TV was showing a dumb cooking show
👍 There’s a TV on the wall, and you can see the x-rays images appear in real-time as they’re taken
👎 I instantly saw that I have a broken crown (stupid 🍿)
👍 They can get me in next week to start the new crown process
👎 The new crown is going to cost $1,800
👎 I remembered why I haven’t been to the dentist in 2+ years
