(281 posts)9. I get people in my ambulance that say that stuff all the time
I tell them it's always better to at very least have the peace of mind, by getting checked out.

The RG is always sending me chocolates from Italy. I immediately put them in the freezer so I don't devour them on the spot.
One night recently I got a chocolate craving and didn't want to wait for it to thaw, so I took a bite of frozen chocolate and cracked a tooth.
Find out from the dentist it's not repairable so I recently had the first part of the implant. I think that was about $1800. In the fall, the implant itself and that will bring it up to $2500 or more. Dental insurance covered $100. Big whoop.
