I was sitting in a meeting on Monday, when I noticed I had a pretty good size hole in my front tooth. I thought about using a finger nail file to smooth out the edges, but then I though if I has a hairline crack I could loose the tooth. So I call the last denist I went. Turns out that was 3 and a half years ago. I knew I was going have pay for an new patient visit, and to have an xray and probably a cleaning, but I was okay with that. It had been 3 and a half years and you its like insurance if you neglect to pay they always get you when you need them.

The denist look at the tooth said she could rebuild it, but suggested that we just file it down. Needless to say, we filed the two front teeth down. It would have looked really funny if one front tooth was longer than the other. Actually they look better now than they ever have because they are the same length as the rest of my teeth. It tried to take a picture, but teeth do not photograph that well.

She charged my insurance company $44.00 for services rendered. No new patient office visit, no cleaning, no xrays even suggested. I have the best denist ever, she even speaks Slovakian.
