Well, good news is I'm going to PEI to visit Conn for the weekend. Shuttle's picking me right up at the door after work here. Sadly, I won't be there for their minifeast, as it's Sunday afternoon, and I'm leaving at 11:30 to come back home. :(
The bad news is, I was having a snack here at work, and find out that I chipped a rather large portion of one of my root canaled teeth. I can't afford a dental appointment before I get paid next Thursday. :( I may see if I can get an appointment early next week, and then pay them Thursday; their building is just up the street from work here.
Though I just mentioned it to a coworker, and she reminded me that now that I have dental coverage, I can actually see a real dentist, not Dalhousie Dental anymore. Dal doesn't do direct billing on insurance, not sure why. Seems the best I can get in Dartmouth area is next Friday evening. Least I'm not in pain, but it is bothering my bite, though that could be because that same tooth shifted forward a day or two ago. I don't even know if I lost the chunk last night or this morning.
Anyone in the area have any dentist recommendations? Now that I have insurance (and realize now what that means), I can get on with an actual dentist now.
I'd highly prefer one that's easy to talk to, and doesn't treat you like an object once you're in the chair. I had a bad experience a few years back with one guy who refused to speak to me the whole time, and instead chatted with his assistant about wines and other things. I like to have things explained to me what's being done to me.
