Extraction

Dear Dr. De Bonis
will yank my tooth
So, he's the Yanker. . .
makes me a Yankee.

The filling in the upper left molar (#15 on the dentist's chart) fell out and my dentist thinks the cavity is too large, the shell too fragile for another filling, and so extraction is called for to protect the root canal. He does not suggest any replacement -- denture or implant. So, there will be an empty lot up on that street. Shall I plant tomatoes there? Or shall I let my cat out to play?
