Tomorrow I go in to Tufts Dental School to have a dental implant installed.

[randomness]

For over a year now, I've been running around with a removable false upper incisor. Tomorrow is the first step in the process of having a permanent restoration installed. Should be interesting.

At some point I'll blog about the pros and cons of going to Tufts Dental School over going to a regular dentist. For now I'll just say it's been an education for me, as well as for the students who have been working with me.

(krlisue and I have been bonding over this; she's ahead of me in the process and it's been helpful being able to talk with her about her experiences. Thanks!)

I'll be interested to hear your thoughts about going through the dental school on this. I'm having implants also, along with some other work (both functional and cosmetic), but through a regular dentist and oral surgeon, so I'll probably comment a lot with contrast/compare as I go through my experience.

Sure! I'll be glad to compare notes, here or wherever.
