Oral Presentation
March 4, 2005 at 10:17 am AST by Rodney MacLeod

Growing up I was always a Crest kid. I don’t think I was too meticulous about my dental health. Every morning I brushed my teeth, some nights I brushed them, never flossed, and regularly went to the dentist for check ups and fluorides. With that regiment I managed to stave off cavities for at least 25 years.

A couple of years ago I had my first cavity and received three fillings. I don’t know if I am eating more sugar, not brushing my teeth as well, or that I stopped getting fluorides, but my dental health is degrading. I just got back from visiting Dr Kerby Bruce. He informed me that the pain that I have been experiencing for the last few weeks (I kept putting of calling the dentist. When I finally called they had me in first thing the next morning.) is a very bad cavity.

Now because of my negligence I am scheduled to go for a root canal. Not looking forward to it. I really don’t know much about them. I remember Jack Tripper had to get one done by one of Terri’s exes. That was funny. I doubt mine will be sitcom worthy, but if it is I will be sure to let you know.
