Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

That's how I got my two crowns.
I was just at the Dentist on Monday, and they think I have something wrong with my bite, and want to recontour some of my teeth to make it more even. I'm not looking forward to it.
I got my root canal(s) and crown from a bad dentist in my youth. The breaking teeth I'm pretty sure I got from my parents.
That said, I'm due to go to the dentist, but between Halloween candy and cough drops, I think I have to wait a few weeks!
Yeah, suddenly I'm glad all my problems are above the gum. Yearg.
The ridic thing is that the dentists still compliments my teeth. "Braces?" Uh, no. "Really? They're perfect!" And I had an ortho tell my mom when I was 11 that I'd need braces, but we were too poor at the time to spring for that. "The teeth that people see are in perfect shape! Why are the rest so crappy?" Genetics? Fuck if I know.
They do push whitening, but a) I have vices that make this kinda stupid waste until I get over them and b) I'll spend money on makeup and haircuts, but for me it seems kinda... a bit much.
I paid $910 for each porcelain/gold crown on a molar. That was two years ago and without insurance.
Okay, has anyone been in Lane Bryant lately and looked at this coat? What I really need to know is what kind of lining does it have? Is it for winter weather (I mean Canadian winter) or it is for now kind of weather?
Kristen, the non-insurance cost is $924 + (ack) $725 root canal. The build up was $235. The estimate worst-case total uninsured was over $8.5 K if there were root canals. Excuse me while I go pass out. I was so in denial and this made me go look at the initial estimate.
I really hope I don't end up needing a root canal. Not a single one.
yay shrift for the porn and the interview!
New random cooking question: I bought the Trader Joe's frozen croissants, and it turns out they want me to proof them uncovered on the counter overnight or some shit.
I covered it with a thin, clean dishtowel when I left them out. They were fine.
I still haven't worn the ballgown skirt I bought with Kat, ita, and Lori. That's how little I need pretty dresses. Work clothes, on the other hand, I need.
My build up was $235 also! My root canals, however, were $950 for a molar.
Have you spoken with your insurance company? Sometimes, they want to pre-approve stuff like this.
Either way, just pull together all of your receipts for dental and medical for the year. If you end up going out of pocket more than you expected, you may be able to deduct it on your taxes.
Oh my dude. I just found out where my class reunion is going to be held. SO CLASSY. The most that can be said for the place is that it's not the bowling alley.
