Hello World!

Alas, my dental woes have not yet disappeared. Yesterday I went to the oral surgeon to arrange an operation to have my wisdom teeth removed.

He spent most of the time with his back turned to me typing up all the fees and charges associated with the operation - let's just say these are very expensive teeth.

I'm not sure what would be more painful - living with the impacted teeth, or paying for the operation.
