@Sweet_Serenity  That is great!  It is so important to find a dentist that you are comfortable with and trust. I wish I could use a Sonicare, but I have all my wisdom teeth, and that toothbrush doesn't reach back there. I use an Oral--B round electric one. I wish Sonicare would come up with a smaller round brush head, but I guess that wouldn't work with their technology.

Might be the older models? This one purchased from my new Dentist comes with three brushes, each specifically for different uses. Yes one for very differcult places that need attention. Love!! New features. Top shelf all the way. Plus! 30.00 rebate!🙋

It is not easy finding a good dentist or even  going to the dentist.  I went almost 20 years  because  the dentist I had when I was young was kinda mean.  So I had this phobia  for years being scard to death of the dentist.  I first went to MyDentist. They are a national chain and they were great but  they really push  you to get more done than you can afford. They try to  put you on payment plans ...etc...  which I cant afford ither.  They also triple billed me  for the same tooth and got a $3,000 bill in the mail and they had a bad attitude when I called to have them fix it.

 

I found a good dentist. Office is Dental Corner in Kansas City. Super nice. Not at all judgemental.  They will do only what you can afford to get done. No pressure.  They also take in Emergancies 7 days a week.

 

I load a $1,000  on my FSA  card  threw my employer  every year  and whatever I have left  on it by mid year I go and get a Crown or some major work done. Sadly all my molars need crowns Smiley Sad

Have you considered dental insurance? AARP has a good one . We get ours through the Elks. $50/month and it pays about half the costs of things like bridges and crowns.
