To Do List: #1 Floss

I went for my first dentist visit in years. I was excited about having my teeth cleaned, but worried about cavities (with good reason). I was not prepared for the news. The dental hygienist (I think that is what they are called) talked me through some concerns on x-rays. She identified about 4-5 trouble spots to further investigate. While cleaning, she found a broken filling that she was amazed it was not causing me a lot of pain. So now we are up to 5-6. The Dentist comes in and points out another trouble spot. And was sure that the broken filling was what brought me in. So, in case you haven't kept count, I have 7 cavities. Ouch! I am about to get to know the dentist fairly well.
