The post on which my new tooth will be
attached was implanted in a short session.
Extracting a molar takes a lot longer than preparing to replace it. The dental surgeon showed me a sample implant
the first time I saw him months ago, which I remembered as looking
metallic. I had no reason to think one
would look any different in my mouth.
For three days I wouldn’t let my tongue touch the area, nor would I let
myself find an explorer and look.
Curiosity got the better of me, so I aimed the camera in my mouth.
Wow!!!! Will you look at that!!!! I have a BLUE TOOTH!!!! For real!!!!!
I’ve
heard about Bluetooth technology for years but never expected to see it inside
my mouth. What a shock! Consulting The Wireless Directory, I learned that it was invented to rid us of
wires connecting telephone accessories in 1994 and took off rapidly several
years later. It was named for a 10th
century Danish Viking king, Harald Blatand (Bluetooth) -- a codename that
stuck. Moral: be careful when you are
tempted to name anything in case it gets popular and becomes a ridiculous household
name.
