My periodontist told me today she'd like to schedule me for a gum graft for a couple of problem areas. I thought that sounded unpleasant, but was willing to go along with her game plan until the front desk people said it would be $1870. HAHAHAHAHA HA. And HA. (The total without insurance would have been a little over $2400. Our crappy DMO will give us a 25 percent discount, but that's it.)
I'm going to go with Plan B, which is to pretend the periodontist was just kidding.
Seems to me Rick had something like that done--not pleasant.
ReplyDeleteSorry.
When medical/dental people suggest things that would require selling a kidney or a child, I brush it off and figure it will sort itself out when I die, or be the cause of my death, and in that case I would figure it was meant to be, so why try and fight God? Right?
ReplyDeleteYeah, my gums may be receding but I still have a full head of hair.
ReplyDeleteKaren had that done. I freakin' hate all things dental. It hurts, it's awkward, and then you have to pay for it. Bleah.
ReplyDeleteHaha, Annie! You and I think alike. Why do we have to pay to be tortured and humiliated?
