I'm happy to report that after two long years, I'm finally finished at the U of L Dental School. No, not as a student, but as a patient. A very patient patient.
I'm not proud of this, but I will admit that I was scared to death of going to the dentist. So I just didn't. Even after I chipped a tooth, I still wouldn't go. Then two summers ago, a tooth became so sensitive to heat and cold, that I had to eat and drink everything at room temperature. I knew then that I had to buck up and take it like a woman. Now, after 8 filling restorations, one tooth extraction, and major wisdom tooth removal, it's over. And I lived through it. Now the visible part of my treatment plan remains - teeth whitening. After all I've been through during the past two years, I'm finally going to get dental work that people will be able to see.

YAY! I'm so glad to hear that it's FINALLY OVER. Being a dentist-phobe myself, I'm envious that you have had consistent courage to get it all done. :)
If two years of treatment is what it takes for you to be able to enjoy an icy cold brew...it was worth it.
