Another blog entry of: he retired too early

I have another dental procedure - extraction of a tooth with a root canal that split.  It can't be saved and it can't stay because it is really bothering me so out it goes.  Argh!  Another retired dentist in the area recommended an oral surgeon that he used...so off to Rice Lake - 75 minutes away...instead of driving 5 minutes away to oral surgeons who I know by first names.  Life in the Northwoods.
