Extraction and Implants

30 Dec 2009

Dr. Naumann of Knoff and Fettig had consulted with Greg Nash and determined that I needed two implants. I, on the other hand, had consulted with C.J. and determined that we could afford to do one implant. So when I got to my appointment Dr. Naumann and I wrestled with the problem and reached a compromise - I'd get two implants but he would charge me only half for the second one. I was amazed. Shortly afterward I was unconscious. Ya gotta love the IV-administered general anesthesia! C.J. drove me home and I'm on a soft-food diet for a couple of days. Don't look too closely at my smile - I've got a couple of metal posts sticking up where molars #20 and 21 used to be.
