During my dental visit on Tues. I received the results of my x-rays. I have cavities in almost every tooth! My big ? is...how am I going to get these cavities filled, keeping my mouth open for who knows how long...when its is soooo dry to begin with? Normally you have the "hook" in your mouth that sucks out saliva, but what do they do when you need moisture added? I'm afraid also the water that is used to "rinse" will be too cold. Now I know why I put off going to the dentist "post" treatment.

Prior to my appointment Tues, last time when the x-rays were taken, I could not open my mouth wide enough for the reg inserts, so I asked if they could use child size. That was only how I was able to get any x-rays done
