Round 6 with the Dentist...

Today I was supposed to have my final appointment with the dentist. But we all know that things don't always work out as planned. This appointment was at 11.30 am. This didn't bother me since I had taken this week off. On the one had I've over 50 paid vacation days left and needed to take some of them before the  become void. After all if you haven't taken your vacation days in quite some while, after 3 years they become void. And the second reason was that I like to have the Thanksgiving weekend off. That's something I've gotten used to doing since I moved back from the States.
So I got to my appointment in time. And I didn't even have to wait long. First we tried the upper partial dentures. And they were a prefect fit. And that was the real biggy for me. Since I really don't like the missing front tooth. It's one of the reasons why I'm not smiling in many pix. The lower partial dentures weren't that good of a fit. The brackets just weren't fitting over the teeth the way they were supposed to.
So we did have to cast another mold of my lower jaw and the dentures had to go back to the dental technician, to have the problem taken care of. And we did set up another appointment, that hopefully will be my last dental appointment at least regarding the partial dentures.
