My periodontist gave me 2 things he wants me to do. Surgery and an implant. I think each is about $2,500. Plan A is to ignore it and hope it goes awayDiane, enjoy your teeth while you are still young!
What kind of surgery? Root canal? That should run around $2,500; my implant was $5,200.00!
I think there might be cheaper implants but everyone I've talked to that have taken that route has been sorry...so, so many problems. 
My implant involved the metal implants, waiting 4-5-6 months until the bone grew around them and then attaching the tooth. I love the results and wish I could afford the implants instead of these stupid crowns but at that price....
...we stick to the $1,400 crowns! 
I use "Plan A" too...ignore it but darn it...it won't go away.....

and this isn't from the big map with pictures I guess I'll post the picture 
. Thought someone would pick up on the "picture the area" clue 
What a mess; took me back to Memorial Day weekend here in the Houston area! Hope all is okay with you and your family! 
Attraction, shop or food service?
Good to hear all is well and the sun is back. Wow...you're weather situation was exactly like our May was...11 straight days of rain is hard to take. We'd have the same thing; 2-3 days of sunshine then 10-11-12 days of rain. I watched the weather channel off/on during the weekend and didn't think you had any problems but I also know the radars aren't always correct 
...good to hear your "party weekend" went okay. That's amazing to have an interstate highway shut down! 
Bad situation for NC and our thoughts and prayers are with them...our minister even said a special prayer in church Saturday night for them. Take care and "enjoy the stress"
