Cavities
The surgeon was kind. I explore the cavities with my tongue. These cavities in my gums are much more pleasant than those that destroyed my wisdom teeth. Gina needed a week for recovery: she had to have stitches in her gums; healing was slow in coming. My teeth were mostly exposed, so little invasion by Dr. Cook was necessary. I was back at work the next day. the sockets are still there, but they have healed over in the week since surgery. Just a few days and the gums were closed. Four days of minor bleeding, I take my last antibiotic tonight, and I only needed two or three pain pills, other than Tylenol and Ibuprofen.
My parents footed the bill, Thank you Dad and Mom. I only got out the bottom two because the others are still okay, and because I didn't think the price increase within my budget (no matter the giant donation of my parents. What a relief!

I'm so glad you finally get to have a rot-free mouth again. I remember you taking a trip to Portland this time last year to get them fixed, only to be thwarted.
Still think you were a crazy man for going to work the next day. (And for choosing to forego the joys of prescription strength pain meds, for that matter.)
