No doubt having the left hand duals with the axle come right out was a real surprise! We loaded the crushed rock on to my L8000 and I carried the back end of his truck home with my Bobcat bucket, a good thing it was less than 3 miles.
After a while I felt a few lumps in my lower gum, think that`s another one or two still there, then later I could feel the pieces in my gum.
Good night John, don`t pull those sheets down too tight!

Good thing you had the equipment to bail him out, sometimes getting home can be quite an adventure.
I feel a bump on the side of my upper gum and really notice it when eating a pork chop or steak, wasn't there before my teeth got pulled

Over the last 37 yrs I've done some pretty weird things with my Bobcat, this isn't the first time I've carried something over sized with my Bobcat. 
How long has it been since your teeth were pulled Perry?

It's been about 2 years, there were some small chips afterwards. Most of my crowns were gone so I've expected there to be a piece or 2 left behind. Will have to go back soon as my fronts are disintegrating

I think it was around a month or so for the chips to come through my gums, usually it doesn't take too long. I don't know if you'd really call it luck or not that I`m in a university dental training program, what I save in dollars I make up in the extra time sitting in the chair while a student trainee practices her dental skills on me. I`d say that it's has saved cash out of my pocket but it`s a good thing I have the extra time that it takes.

There's students here doing their practicum but they didn't pull anything, the dentist was in a rush and it felt like he left a mess behind.

Hello Morris. Ya she is pretty good. She has picked the last two I have gone to. The one I go to now spends the time to make you feel a little more at ease before he starts into things.

I had a great dentist like that with good rates for someone like me without any dental benefit plans. It was a big blow when she retired a couple of yrs ago but it was time as she was in her early 70`s.

I hope the one I go to never retires. He will though cause he must be in his mid 60's at the least. I think he could probably run another half dozen people a day if he didn't make the small talk before starting.
