Last day for dental work. Yippee!

Today we head back into Mexico for our final day to finish up this dental work. Janira removed the temporaries and tried the permanents. After we decided on the final adjustments that needed to be made, she sent the finished crowns back to the lab to be polished and refitted.

Another 30 minute wait and I now have 4 new caps on my front teeth and they look great. Now I can have corn on the cob and all those things I could not bite into. It’s been a long wait.

For those inquiring minds…….each cap was $187. That comes to:

4 caps @ $187 = $748

2 root canals and posts @ $250 = $500

Total for all =$1248.

This is less than I would have had to pay in the US for just the one root canal, post and cap! They way we look at it, the other three were free!
Now we are just hanging out in Pilot Knob until our mail comes next week. And finally, a great sunset.

There has not been the wonderful sunsets of the past years. Seems like being here in November instead of January is the difference in the weather and crowds.

Thomas has been wonderful while all this dental work was done. He has made me sit down and taken care of me. Thank you Thomas for being a real sweet heart!
