Thanks Bryanna for ALL the great info.

Know what fascinates me? That people can actually sit in that dental chair, get all numbed up and calmly sit there while a dentist takes out all their teeth, goes into the bone, blah blah.

I can't even get my head wrapped around this.

My heart starts to beat because normally, I'm phobic and I'm lucky that recently I went to my dentist who, thankfully assured me, I'm perfectly fine, told me that indeed, my problem was a TMJ flare-up (I've been fine eve since), and that my dental x-rays showed no problems.

Maybe it's because there is no sugar in my diet, no chips, (which I've been told are REALLY bad for the teeth), and I thankfull, do not eat raisins.

I once had a dentist tell me "the one food I tell my patients to keep away from are RAISINS. They are like Dental Napalm"

I will never forget that conversation.

Melody
