Dog tooth - experimental dental.

Just back from a visit to the tooth witch (see yesterday’s blip) who is really an old family friend and a very smart and amusing person.

When confronted by the abscess which had almost buried the remainder of my tooth and roots, she went into action. After an xray and pricks and seeing that the residual bone was very poor, she yanked out the tooth and said she was going to do something experimental , ha, ha, ha, but would only tell me about it afterwards because it might worry me. So I worried about what she wasn't telling me.

I saw her shoveling heaps of white powder into the cavern where the tooth had been but I had no idea what she was doing.

She explained that at the university where she teaches, experiments have been done on GS drug sniffer dogs and that trials had just begun on humans and I’m the second one. Apparently damage to the dog’s teeth/bones has a detrimental effect of their sense of smell.

It seems that the white nano powder turns into a bone like substance, to be used as a base to fix an implant. She took photos of the job and my info so I ‘m in the statistics, along with dogs.
