I've just come back from six days in Algodones where I had more dental work done at of course much less than US prices. At this point most of my dental work is done and I've reached a point where you could not tell of my past or where I've been by my teeth. I realized this yesterday when I took a good look at myself in the mirror.

Interesting, I promised myself for years that this day would come and it finally has and it's not the extremely pleasurable thing I thought it would be - but I wouldn't want my old teeth back, either. Just strange to not have 85006 teeth (unless said zip code person has been to Mexico a lot). All good, though, it just going to take some getting used to. But the work is almost all done now. Rob

Did you get implants Rob?Hi, TT. No, this time I had final work done on my upper plate. I was in a bit of pain the past six weeks living on Tramadol I took across the border before it became illegal to do so, combined with clove oil to deaden the nerves while I was not at work. To answer your question, though, I did have four root canals (USD $1,040 for all four, I kid you not), and completely paid by my own steam AND IT FEELS GREAT (had to give the Conservatives here that and it's true) and six crowns. Essentially, most of my dental work is now done. Rob
