26. Go to the dentist
one
Jianqin: Ruohong is coming to the station, let’s go to the dentist.
Jin Yu: What’s so nice about teeth? It’s still early, so I’ll take you to Qintan Lake to see how the garden is progressing and whether it’s completely completed.
Jianqin: I’ll go there another day. I’ll take you to see your dentist first.
Jin Yu: I can’t learn from your mother, who always likes to make trouble.
Jianqin: This is not looking for trouble. It is better to treat it late than to treat it early.
Jin Yu: I’m just missing one or two teeth, it’s not a big deal.
Jianqin: If a small hole is not repaired, a big hole is difficult to repair. I have a colleague’s father who spent more than 100,000 yuan on repairing his teeth after they fell out.
Jin Yu: Start paying attention to dietary hygiene. The tooth loss will stop here and it won’t affect the fish anymore.
Jianqin: No. Tell me that I am at home on vacation and you must listen to me.
Jinyu: How long does it take to see a dentist?
Jianqin: It won’t last all afternoon, I won’t

It takes a long time.
Jinyu: Did you take a taxi or walk?
Jianqin: Aren’t there buses?
Jin Yu: The viaduct is being erected and the bus has been rerouted.
Jianqin: How long does it take to walk there?
Jin Yu: It takes about a quarter of an hour to take a shortcut and twenty minutes to take a detour.
Jianqin: Then let’s walk over, it’s just a good time to exercise.
two
Jianqin: Oh, there are so many people!
Jinyu: Why are they all children?
Jianqin: This is normal. Children like to eat snacks and don’t pay much attention to protecting their teeth.
Jin Yu: That’s right. Some people eat too much sweets and lose all their teeth by the age of thirty.
Jianqin: Sit here and wait, listening to the nurse calling.
Nurse: Please drink water, both of you.
Jianqin:Thank you, auntie.
three
Doctor:Have you ever seen a dentist before?
Jinyu: No. This is the first time.
Doctor: Why did you come to see your dentist?
Jin Yu: My daughter “forced” me.
Jianqin: If I hadn’t been “forced”, my dad wouldn’t have come.
Doctor: Your daughter respects you very much.
Jinyu: That is.
Doctor: Your teeth are in generally good condition. I have a few suggestions for you to consider. First, a few gaps between your teeth need to be repaired so that you can eat without clogging your teeth. Second, your periodontal maintenance needs to be done, and the tartar needs to be removed immediately. Then

I will remove the bad tooth for you, and then I will consider filling or implanting the tooth.
Jinyu: That will take the whole afternoon.
Doctor: I don’t have much time. I only need to make two trips. I will review it regularly in the future. You should think about it first. After you think about it, go and pay the fee first, and then follow the procedure for treatment.
Jinyu: How much does it cost?
Doctor: There is a separate fee for dental implants. The director himself will do the dental implants, and the other costs are more than 3,000 yuan. After you have considered it, sign your name and then go downstairs to pay.
Jianqin: I'll sign. Thank you doctor.
Four
Jin Yu: Why is dental care so expensive?
Jianqin: How expensive is this? There are more expensive ones.
Jin Yu: A three-day vacation cost very little. A trip to the hospital cost more than 3,000 yuan. This shows how precious health is and you should not be careless about your living habits.
Jianqin: "Diseases enter through the mouth, and disasters come out of the mouth." If you don't grasp "mouth" well, you will be in big trouble.
Jinyu: And it’s not an ordinary one. It’s so big that everyone in the world is surprised.
Jianqin: If you don't control your "mouth" well, it will be difficult to take action.
Jinyu: So a medical expert once said that a good lifestyle is more important than any other technology.
Jianqin: There are tens of thousands of trips, and health is the number one priority. You really need to keep it in mind.
Jin Yu: There is one more thing that is indispensable. If you forget it, you will be even more distressed.
Jianqin: Which point?
Jin Yu: There are many things in life, but thoughts are the first. Healthy thoughts are in a healthy body.
Jianqin: Health and thoughts, the left and right hands of life, the two wheels of human beings, thoughts are the soul, neither one is enough.
Jin Yu: If you keep the entrance and exit in check, your life will be full of beauty.
