I love my dentist

No, that's not meant to be sarcastic.  I seriously have the best dentist ever, and I wish I could take the entire practice with me wherever we go.

I had two fillings done today.  Ever since having kids, my teeth have gone to sh!t.  Mostly because of the hormones thing, but also because I sometimes don't have time to brush my teeth (flossing was non-existent the first year of JC's life).  Having two cavities, however, is unacceptable, so I will put more of an effort in, promise.  One of the dental hygienists also turned me on to Act, which is the best stuff ever.

Anyway, my dentist did the fillings today, and I told them I would miss them very much because he's so awesome and the staff is so awesome.  He's friendly, but doesn't ask questions when my mouth is full of cotton and drooling (sidenote: isn't that the most ridiculous time to ask someone a question?  What kind of answer could you possibly give?).  He's quick, but listens and answers all my questions.  He's really good at cosmetic stuff, like crowns and bonding, but never pressured me into it.  And, he also cares a lot about his patients.  The staff is so knowledgeable, remembers every detail about every patient (I'm sure they write that stuff down to review it pre-appointment, but it's nice to know that they're prepared), and are incredibly sweet ladies. 

I'm going to miss them so much!!

To my milspouser buddies, if you ever are stationed in Monterey, look up Dr. Bradford Carl in Carmel.  You won't be disappointed!
