Operation Cheer

[ssclassof56.livejournal.com]

I broke a tooth today eating a Skittle 🤷🏼‍♀️, and since I’m now staring down a huge dental bill, I could use some cheer. 😁

On the bright side, it did bring to mind a Drabble I’d forgotten about.

Owwwww, hisssss! Sorry about the bad news.

Thanks. Not what I expected today. At least it doesn’t hurt.

Teeth are a bother sometimes. I broke two molars from TMJ tension, empathizing with you. Skittles, huh?

Not eating those again.

Sorry to hear of your troubles. (I associate skittles with the things you knock over in bowling alleys, so your news comes as no surprise, 😂). I hope your dentists are seeing more clients than UK ones are under lockdown restrictions. I've had a broken tooth for months (luckily painless, so I can cope). As an NHS patient I wouldn't have to pay much, but it's impossible to get an appointment.

Fortunately I was able to get an appointment for this morning. This will be my first time using my work’s dental insurance for a major procedure. We’ll see how good it is. 🤞🏻

Hope it goes well.

My sympathies. A Jordan almond did one of mine in.

That’s the second Jordan almond story I’ve heard. I’m never eating those again. 🤣

Remember dragees? Those silver balls used for decorating cakes and cookies? Right on the bottle, it warns Not For Consumption! They had too many lawsuits for dental work.
