A Queen Gets a Crown

[bjarvis]

The chipped tooth now has a temporary crown attached. I go back on the morning of Nov 14 for the permanent crown, all for the low, low price of $1,138. Bugger.

Adding insult to injury, there is still another tooth which may need a crown in the next year and two fillings my dentist wants to replace. It was a good thing he informed me of all of this extra work & expense while my face was still too numb to express anything.

I had to have a root canal to implant a steel rod to mount my new crown on.......$1600.00 later....at least my dental insurance covered a bit of it.

Ouch. Amazing how much we're willing to pay to have ourselves tortured, isn't it?
