His practise was housed in an old nissan hut and like you, we endured brutal treatment every six months that would not be permitted now. But it was an age when 'children were seen and not heard' and complaining was not even to be considered, let a one allowed. As a result, I have a mouth full of old mercury/amalgam fillings and I am still terrified of going to a dentist.

Hope all is well now. I also noticed on your last post that 'old' book, which is one I have lurking somewhere too. Your quilt from it is looking great. Although I don't usually comment I just thought I would. Oh, are you & Kerryn going to the Melbourne Quilt show next week? Take care.Susan Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11945482062858126629noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20394496.post-57392709537476308002016-07-21T23:52:42.172+09:302016-07-21T23:52:42.172+09:30I empathize completely!

In my 30's the fillings disintegrated and I spent almost 2 years having crowns and root canals, selling quilts and teaching classes to help pay for it all. As adults we can now say, "I need nitrous oxide" (laughing gas). Not every dentist will use it, but I won't go to a dentist unless they do. Also having music or a book to listen to through ear buds helps greatly. Sure hope you can get yours fixed so it causes no more pain. We had enough as kids.

But going to the dentist nowadays is so much more preferable. Hardly any pain. But oh the cost! One could purchase a lot of fabric for just what a cleaning costs.Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01816001950084090576noreply@blogger.com
