I'm with Sarah. A thousand bucks is too much to let sit in a pile of crap. But I wouldn't have f*ckin' bothered with retrieving the cell phone. No way.

Yeah, no way on the cell phone. The ONLY reason I would think about bothering with the cell was if my little mini SD card that holds all my pictures, videos, and music on it was plugged in. Then I might try to pull the phone out, pop out the card, and then toss the handset back in the crap.

By the way Oral Ex., what was your vote?

Oh, and please do tell why gold is better than porcelain. And herrr I thought it was just a G thang.

alright...you asked for it

Gold (well, it's not ALL gold, obvioulsy) is the most bio compatible thing you can put in your mouth. It's the BEST thing you can put in your mouth. When you prepare the margin of the tooth for the crown, then go to seat the crown, you want a nice smooth transition. Not an "overhang" and you don't want it bulking out the side. Gold can be thinned to less than 1 mm and still be durable and strong. This is not the case for porcelain. They have to bulk it out to keep it from fracturing. So it makes it a tad bit harder to keep clean,and it can STILL fracture. Then...I think for this particular patient, he grinds his teeth. Metal wears evenly. So eventually, with his grinding patterns, he will wear a perforation in the top of the crown. Years down the road. Porcelain-it won't wear as nicely. it will again, fracture. Also gold is not as "porous" as porcelain, so it may be a bit smoother to the tongue SO.... ooh...and it's not as if you don't have options. white gold or yellow gold



his was yellow


and hell yes I would to save a grand?? I'd break out the **** strainer in a heartbeat.

but here goes . . .

last summer at our annual fourth of july bash (come one come all) my friend, let's call her Michelle - yah Michelle was here with her husband and two kids age 5 and 3.

our house is up on a hill but most of the property (about 4 acres) is on a lower level by the river so we have an outhouse down there. (very state park like )
well michelle is using the outhouse when she drops her CELL PHONE down down down down down the hole. about a five foot drop to the 'stuff' below.

Well it wasn't a $1,000 tooth but michelle decided to dig. I couldn't be anywhere near the outhouse while this was happening - i saw her walking toward the outhouse with a shovel and a hoe and made the mistake of asking what the hell whe was doing with my tools. she told me and was lookin for help. i instantly got in my kayak and went for a very LONG paddle contemplating the purchase of a new shovel and hoe.

When i got back i heard that she was just about to give up when she caught site of it - gross.
got my housemate to hold the hoe still while she used the shovel to get it on the hoe - grosser.
used gloves to peel off the plastic cover she had on the phone and then tested it by calling MY cell phone. GROSSEST.
f*ck - i wanted to throw MY phone out just cos she used hers to call me - lol

moral of the story?
none
point of the story?
Michelle is gross, disgusting and has a little brown spot on her ear.


(it really is a true story except for the name and the brown spot. )

goddamnit I'm kicking your ass and...I so hate you
