Yesterday I had one. Called my dentist office at 3 and by 3:30 I was sitting in the chair. I had a bad abcess. He cleaned it out and did a root canal. Last night at 7:30 Lance (my dentist) called to see how I was feeling. I had some pain, so he called me in some pain meds. I am so thankful to have such a caring young man for my dentist. When I was in high school, his dad was my dentist.

That's awesome!  well, not the abcess and the root canal...lol...but the exceptional care!  You don't see that very often anymore.  I had 2 teeth pulled in the fall and my dentist knew I was not about going to the dentist at all and that i was very nervous.  He called me later that night as well...I thought that was so sweet of him.  Our dentists that we have are for sure going to get return trips from us!  :)
