Yesterday I went to my Castro dentist to get five old amalgam fillings replaced. Some may date back as far as my cheap Tufts Dental School days, 35-odd years ago. He spotted some deterioration around the edges at the last cleaning, and I'm pretty sure some minor aches have to do with acidic foods leaking in around the edges, so best replace now with that new plastic composite material, which is UV-cured.
Blair Keck, DDS is a funny little guy who reminds me of Paul Williams in the 70s (minus the long hair.) He's sweet and mumbles to himself a lot. Single and not much interested in romantic prospects beyond his dog. His staffers seem to love him.
I think this was my third visit, the other two being routine cleanings. I brought along my Invisalign retainer so he could check the fit, and had the carrying case on the dental chair between my legs until I could bring it up. He spotted it, and said, "Oh, yes, I was going to take a look, but I could get into trouble if I reached down there and touched it." That and about 10 other comments of the teasing variety, culminating in "you should probably slap me for that, but wait until we're done here," led me to hug him and give him two hard swats on the fanny after we were done. He suggested I come back at 8.
And he only managed to replace 3 of 5 in two hours, so I have to return later for the rest.
My face was numb for hours, so naturally somebody at the gym wanted to talk. I told him "bluh web, cant tuk." He said it was cute. I tried to say "Drooling is never cute," which came out as "vooing vever coot." Couldn't drink from the fountain. Cleared during cardio.
