  • Saw the dentist today

    From Frank <"frank@21:1/5 to All on Tue Nov 6 12:46:28 2018
    When he asked how I was feeling, I told him that I was still suffering
    from the pain to my wallet that my last visit to him entailed.

    The partial I mentioned a while back is functioning perfectly.

    Thought you would get a kick out of this. I do like this partial and I
    don't need to use adhesive with it. The flexible acrylic grips the
    teeth around it and does not have wires that fit around the back teeth.
    With the old one I might chomp on something like ice cream and opening
    the mouth would cause suction to pull off the wires and biting down
    could break it which is why I used adhesive.

    The dental office did get a kick out of my "suffering dental pains to my wallet" and you had mentioned that your price would have been 25% less.
    I did not mention that.

    In general, flexible-base partials require higher lab fees, and I don't remember if I accounted for that. In any case, glad they worked out for
    you.

    Thanks. That relieves some of the pain. My dental insurance is
    practically useless paying nothing for dentures.
