Dentist

Louka has a few problems with her teeth, so she visits the dentist about four times a year. She has a crack across a couple of front teeth and some defective enamel on her upper molars. Today, the crack on the front teeth was not deteriorating at all ― I do concentrate very carefully on brushing those teeth. However, the defective enamel was getting much worse. The dentist cleaned the molars with "medical grade aluminium oxide" and applied some sort of coating or filling. He wants to see her again in six weeks to see if the coating is holding. Otherwise we will have to take her to a paediatric dentist ― apparently a rather expensive undertaking.
