I have to say I am very impressed with my dentist & the office staff! The dentist called me personally this afternoon to ask how I was feeling & to see if I had any questions. He also asked if I was able to pick up my meds. I told him I got the Ibuprofen & the antibiotics but Publix was out of the rinse, so I asked if I could do a Saline rinse instead. He said yes, the other rinse would have been better but the saline would be better than nothing at all. He also told me he had talked with another Dr. and that I should not restart taking the Fosamax until after I go back for a follow up visit after the first of the year. They want to be sure everything is healing as it should, then he asked if I had made my follow up before I left & I said no, I really wasn't thinking about it at the time. Soooo, he had the receptionist call me after he hung up to make the appointment! I sure wish I would have had a dentist like him years ago, I might not be toothless like I am now. Oh well, I have told both my sisters that they really need to get in & see him before they end up like me, none of us kids had good teeth growing up. Took one of my 600 mg Ibuprofen earlier and feel pretty good, so hopefully things will continue to go well.
