Ageism is a Two-Way Street

After many difficult dental procedures, I have developed a consistent sense of dread when I have to go to the dentist. After two bridges, several crowns and a failed dental implant, I work hard to remind myself that the point of going to the dentist is to have healthy, functional teeth, instead of orchestrated torture. Nonetheless, before every appointment, I am a bag of nerves. What helped me deal with dental work was a compassionate, skilled dentist who was encouraging and so very patient. After seeing him for 30 years, he knew me well. When he walked into the room, I knew that everything was going to be okay. That is, until he retired. <a href="https://medium.com/crows-feet/ageism-is-a-two-way-street-27b3bce7f78c">Visit Now</a>
