We are supposed to be traveling, having the time of our lives, not stuck at home. I worked so hard for so many freaking years, this is not the payoff I signed up for. Last year i suddenly developed a teeth problem and it's been holy hell trying to get this fixed during a pandemic, it's been excruciatingly frustrating. A year and 4 months later, i've had 2 root canals (one failed due to terrible work), 1 permanent crown & 1 temp crown and still need another crown or possible tooth pulling and a really deep cleaning. I'm just praying I can get this completed this year. I cant afford to go to dentists that aren't on my Medicare HMO plan and the ones I found that are good are also very slow and 45 min. away.

I have always had really good teeth, up until my 68th birthday when everything fell apart.
