| 1120051 | 2010-07-19 07:05:00 | And how much do you think that is going to cost? Falsies dentists charge like a wounded bull too, and they don't last forever either. ;) At the same time,Metla could be quite becoming in falsie's. |

Falsies dentists charge like a wounded bull too, and they don't last forever either. ;) About 4 grand, depending on how many teeth have to be extracted, Its about $100 a tooth to yank em so hopefully most will be gone, But then again I have quite a few snapped off at the gum. Which is just a drop in the ocean compared top what my brothers have spent trying to retain their teeth. Anyhow, Will only need to get the top done,all the lower ones seem alright. |

| 1120055 | 2010-07-19 22:33:00 | "Went to dentist,they charged $90 for inspection and Cray" No wonder Cicero, was it done in a nice cheesy sauce? You want to try getting a Cray up here. They cost a small fortune for one the size of a rat, which we would have thrown back a few years ago. Does your dentist run a sort of a restaurant on the side? Good business. I expect he serves a lot of things for your "sweet tooth" as well. Just the drill for a dentist to give you a filing meal. :) |

Is that the one in McBrearty's Building (sp) in High St near the Junction? If so, that is where I used to go as a high school kid. |
