Today I went to the dentist to have the two replacement gold crowns fitted. When I was there two weeks ago for the removal of the second crown, I forgot to ask for them to give me the crown, and when I asked about it, they said they didn't have it. I wonder if they actually discard old gold dental work or just set it aside for a party fund or something like that.
Fitting the upper right replacement crown went smoothly. This is the tooth on which I had a root canal many years ago. The lower right tooth, which is still "live," was much more difficult, and I had to ask them to anesthetize it before they cleaned the tooth and fitted the permanent crown.
After the appointment, I went to Reno Gold Exchange to see what I could get for the crown that I did salvage.
( Found Money )
That lower right tooth is still very temperature sensitive, and my jaw does still hurt a bit, although not as much as it did when I had the temporary crowns in place. The dentist said to give it a couple of days and if it hasn't "calmed down" to give them a call and they'll have another look at it.
That money for the crown is "found money" of a sort, and I'm considering if perhaps I should use it to place a bet on the San Francisco 49ers to win the Super Bowl. The last odds I heard for the 49ers to win were +175, meaning that my $50 bet would win $137.50 if they take the trophy.
