I went to my dentist earlier this year for a regular checkup, and he made a series of observations nobody wants to hear. I had a cavity. It was under a crown. And the crown was next to a wisdom tooth that might have to be yanked to make room for him to saw off the crown and fix the cavity. So I went to see an oral surgeon, who had his own set of progressively worse observations. Yes, the wisdom tooth would have to come out. But an X-ray showed another cavity under another crown.
You know you shouldn’t indulge too much, especially as you get older, but that’s when you need it most. The crisis was averted when my cardiologist determined I could safely take care of the teeth before getting the new pacemaker. So I went with that plan, got the teeth pulled without a hitch, and was amazed at how much food gets stuck in the holes in your gums. I could have dug an entire box of Cheez-Its out of each one.
