Look at it this way. Some of us are old enough to remember that we had one or two dentist in our home town. These dentists were there to do everything we, as patients, needed and we survived with our teeth, even after 80 years. There was no need to criticize people who do not seek specialist unless today's dentist have not been property trained in Dental School. Medicare does not cover any of that stuff and not every retiree an afford the coat of the specialists , ever if they are available in their community.OMG, I can't believe you guys are letting a regular dentist pull your wisdom teeth. My brother is a retired dentist and his rule is:
For pulling teeth you go to an oral surgeon (mine is actually a doctor who is also a certified anesthesiologist so he safely puts you out)
For root canals you go to an endodontist.
For bridges, crowns and implants you go to a prosthodontist.
Look at it this way, I can take my Porsche (ok so it's true, my Porsche is a picture in a magazine but we deserve to dream don't we?) to my incredibly great mechanic who works on my other cars but he doesn't have any experience working on Porsches and may not have the appropriate diagnostic equipment or I can take it to a factory trained mechanic who works on nothing but Porsches.
Lapsang souching is on the bubble for the playoffs, but Assam wins the title every year.Unfortunately when making my tea this morning I grabbed my favorite malty Assam when I intended to grab my lapsang souching which is my clear favorite for winter weather. While the Assam is wonderful I was looking for the strong smokiness of the other tea this morning
No, he's not kind of right. Debt isn't a math problem, it's a behavior problem. Dave's baby steps are not the most mathematically efficient way to get out of debt. But they are the simplest way to create discipline in the realm of personal finance.
