I love dental insurance!

Alex went to the dentist this morning. He is now the proud owner of 1/3 of a root canal. He has 2 more appointments over the next two weeks that should take care of it, and then a few more for a crown. The dentist said his teeth look "great!" except for this one, so that is good to know.

By the way - I love dental insurance! I have always felt stupid paying for dental insurance that we don't use beyond normal maintenance stuff. Today, I am getting my money back. Root canal, crown and other miscellaneous stuff = $1697.00. My total out of pocket expense = 635.50. Oh yeah!

Anyway, back to our normal, boring day. School, chores, maybe the pool. Marty is off today, so he is only going in to work for a few hours. (Can you sense my eyes rolling? They are, believe me.)


It is a whopping 36° right now, so of course I am freezing. Maybe we should ditch school and head to the hot tub? Yeah, I wish!

There are several ways to keep your teeth clean and you mouth healthy! Always drink water with meals so that the acid and residue from food is washed away as you sip it during mealtime. Add warm water then sprinkle baking soda on your toothbrush and brush your teeth for a whiter healthier smile. See a dentist annually for preventive dental health. The cost of dentistry is increasing but there are ways to save money!
