Popcorn kernels will do you in.
Ate popcorn, popcorn cracked my back molar filling without me knowing.
Alex continued to eat and have fun for weeks...
While flossing Alex started to think that the black spot on back tooth looked unfamiliar.
Alex calls oral surgeon father (http://www.yelp.com/bi...) for advice.
Father says go to doctor to see if you should fly home to get it fixed (aka will be mucho $$$) or stay in Colorado.
Father finds Dr. De La Paz after calling several Periodontists in Colorado for referrals.
All Colorado Periodontists contacted recommend Dr. De La Paz.
Squeezed into one of their appointments the next day.
Dr. De La Paz says that I must get molar filling fixed or risk worse damage.
I make appointment for soon after visit.
Filling and repair went smooth and comfortable... Although Dr. De La Paz had to do a lot of digging and cleaning, since lots of food crept down into the tooth.
Black spot got fixed, root canal was avoided, and dentist's daughter (me) feels all better.
Dr. De La Paz is friendly, tells good stories, is funny and the chairs have a pleasant view of the building's green green grass and landscaping.

* Star one is for fitting me in (Who doesn't like to feel special right)
** Scrape scrape scrape star two is for making sure tooth was all clean on the inside so more decay did not build up after appointment
*** All better star three is for fixing my filling
**** You're funny star four is for a great personality and entertaining stories to keep me from talking (which is hard)
***** I don't feel a thing star five was for giving me enough shots so you could go to town and I wouldn't feel a thing... I love it that way!
