Beautiful Smiles....

Boys and I went to have our regular dental check-up this afternoon. Whilst we all only require scaling, I was cautioned by my dentist to be careful with my second molar. He indicated that I probably require a crown soon. He suggested ALL GOLD. I almost fell off the chair. Can you imagine how awful that would look? I don't want to risk looking like Jack Sparrow from Pirates of the Caribbean whenever I smile!!! Surely with today's cosmetic dentistry, something more attractive can be had! Perhaps I should seek advice from this orange nj cosmetic dentist before I proceed with any works on my molar. Or maybe I should just wait and see.....

I also dont know TMJ until, during the Root Canal Treatment then I know, er pls check internet, u type TMJ, then u know,in Spore the dental very expensive, so if ur dentist in Msia is GOOD one, pls go ahead and crown it! ( my sis crowned it 20 yrs ago, but I dont want, see wat happen) Well now the 2nd molar is GONE, extracted out but I still felt the discomfort ard the 1st molar's gum, I dont know what isit got to do with my 1st molar, I tot if I cabut 2nd molar ( tis is where it all started, all the discomfort will gone but it is not ) I don't know, I still not stable , if my existing molar - still got 3 left, 2 on left and 1 of right - start to like pain pain, then I felt like I wanna to go sioa liao .... really, I prayed very hard now to recover from depression & pain....I felt like those HK drama series leh, u know someone so happy and prefect with life suddenly ...... everything change.... I guess I am not prepared for this, I think I nvr gone thru such a big TRAUMA ....

Great! It's 2-in-1! That's what I like about professional dentists. In Edgewater they have this Standard Operating Procedure to check even the patients' guardian for free. They do it during Edgewater day as thanksgiving gesture to the community! Great!
