Die Tooth Fairy

Last update for the weekend touches upon today. See, on Friday morning, after the kids and I dropped Chantale off at the metro, we headed to the West Island as I had a hairdresser’s appointment. Once the ears were lowered, I headed to the CAA to renew my drivers license and medicare card. From there, we headed to Chez Cora’s for Brunch. This was all new to the kids so I knew they would get a kick out of it. After a great brunch of pancakes, toast, eggs, juice, etc etc, we left. In the car, I thought I had food stuck in my back teeth. But, when I checked in the mirror…. lo and behold, I realized a part of my lower-right wisdom tooth was missing! I realized it had not only broken off, but I had obviously swallowed it as well! Ack!

A few frantic phone calls later, I managed to get a dentist who would see me to assess the damage. He couldn’t really take care of me, but it was worth a shot. He ended up putting a sedative dressing on it so that I could at least last the weekend. My options were simple: get a filling or get it pulled. And I still can’t figure out what to do simply because the tooth is not really “required” in a sense and it is difficult to maintain. Meaning, that if I get a filling, it may not last. Bah. I just hate throwing away money and every time I go to the dentist, that’s what I feel I’m doing!

Anyhow, I called my own dentist yesterday and made an appointment for today at 1pm. So, we’ll see what he has to say. I’ll have an update later this afternoon.

In the meantime, I’m ready for some warm weather now, please. Thanks.
