A visit from the dentist

Burt had a visit from his Geriatric House Call Dentist. This was his second such; Dr. K saw him about 6 months prior.

Of course, she noticed the huge changes in his condition.

He has a loose tooth we were considering extracting. We did not do that this visit but have it scheduled.

I asked his general practitioner’s advice on the advisability of this procedure.

He was cooperative and brave and shouting the whole time his mouth was cleaned.

Afterward, he told his aide it was a nightmare.

This morning, I wondered if the dentist’s administration made him feel better. He gave out a considered “ahha,” long and sincere.

I certainly hope I’ll get the same acknowledgment from him after his tooth is pulled.
