I feel more and more like a newborn baby: I want to pee all the time, have almost no hair left, and almost no teeth either. To keep on smiling, I have an appointment tomorrow with Brett, my friendly prosthetist at the Hancock Denture Clinic in Milton.
I saw him on two previous occasions when he took several impressions, and tomorrow will be D-Day when I get my first set of partial chompers. And get this: unlike the two denture makers in Batehaven and Moruya who quoted me $1,700 and $2,100 - and charged me $85 just for the quote! - Brett's price is $1,200 - and he didn't even ask for a deposit!
Unlike those two local denture makers, Brett never charged me for the initial quote either which made me almost overlook the "Book your complementary appointment with our friendly team today" on his website - well, almost but not quite because when I sent him an email today to confirm tomorrow's appointment, I added, "My life is a constant battle between wanting to correct grammar and wanting to make friends. I hope I don't lose you as friends by pointing out to you that the sentence 'Book your complementary appointment with our friendly team today' on your website should have the word 'complementary' spelled with an 'i' :-)"
Let's hope I'm still smiling after he's fitted me with my new teeth!
