The sun came up this morning.
What is the big deal about that, one may say.
But we must always realise what a spectacular thing this is.
Not the event by itself.
That has been happening for millions of years and "inshala" will happen somewhere into eternity.
The spectacularity lies in the fact that each of us saw it today.
In reality or by way of this posting.
That confirms we are alive.
And shouldn’t we, once in a while, stop and realize what a fabulous thing it is that we are alive?
Hence, let’s face east, get on our knees and bow for the gift of live we enjoy and appreciate today.
Yesterday was the return to the “Angel’s Touch Dental Clinic”.
Many fervent and loyal blog readers will remember the horror full experience your humble servant had to experience at the hands of dentist Arturo Cruz.
The report on this blog came to the attention of the staff of the “Angel’s Touch Dental Clinic” and they responded with sincere apologies.
The other action was that Arturo Cruz was decommissioned and the owner of the “Angel’s Touch Dental Clinic”, the highly experienced and most charming Donna Rosa Peña, took over.
But Arturo Cruz continued his presence during the dental procedures yesterday in the “Angel’s Touch Dental Clinic”.
In a most undesired way.
He had put, as is the procedure, temporary teeth.
A piece of plastic slided on the polished leftovers of the original teeth.
To keep it there for the two weeks one has to wait, it is glued with a kind of cement.
Unfortunately Arturo Cruz had forgotten to put Vaseline to the cement to make it possible to take off the temporary teeth easily.
How hard Donna Rosa Peña tried, the plastic pieces wouldn’t come off.
Eventually she used a device, called the hammer.
It hooks behind the plastic and by knocking the hammer the shocks should have the prosthesis come off.
That worked for the upper part, but the lower part had to be drilled away.
A lot of work for almost an hour.
At one point Arturo Cruz was asked to come and kindly he was explained what mistake he had made.
This must have added to his unhappiness.
When arriving in “Angel’s Touch Dental Clinic” that morning he had been ignoring this daring client.
He only said at one point that Donna Rosa Peña would take over.
No greetings, no apologies from him or any sportsmanship.
After the prosthesis was out, from a plastic bag the crowns came and put temporarily in place to see how it looked.
Awful.
Terrible.
One bigger, one smaller.
Gapes between the teeth.
Again, Arturo Cruz had failed.
This was recognized by Donna Rosa Peña right a way, expert as she is.
She called the lab where they make the crowns and asked them to come over pronto.
Two dental technicians appeared 10 minutes later and they discussed the situation.
They decided to make 8 brand new crowns and this time based on the instructions of Donna Rosa Peña.
The lab was prepared to do this as an emergency job and 6 hours later the crowns would be ready.
Temporary prosthesis were quickly made and put in place.
Next, Donna Rosa Peña had a look at the two cavities Arturo Cruz had discovered on the x-rays that needed amalgam removal and composite filling.
Donna Rosa Peña couldn’t find the cavities.
Because there were no cavities…
Towards Donna Rosa Peña, this gave a thankful feeling.
Later that day the freshly baked porcelain crowns were put in place quickly and efficiently.
This is the result:
Are there any conclusions?
Fervent and loyal blog readers can easily come to conclusions if they wish to do so, based on the two reports of the experiences with the “Angel’s Touch Dental Clinic” in San Jose del Cabo, Baja California, Mexico.
It is a good place to have dental work done.
Very friendly people, the majority of them women.
It is a clean, modern clinic and easy on the financial budget.
It is impartially recommended if one wants fixing the teeth.
But when booking an appointment be sure it is with Doctor Rosa Peña.
Because she has the touch of an angel.

They're lovely! Congratulations!
So happy for you after the terrible ordeal. I hope you have no trouble with the teeth now.
They look great! My $1750. root canal/ crown was not sized exactly correct and last night it knocked off the crown below it while eating candy. I will have to leave my remote Island on monday to have it repaired, it has been fine for over 10 years.
Did you ever discuss how much your new teeth cost total? Enjoy them,Robert
Nice choppers!
Watch out for the ladies now!
Aloha from Maui!
