1. My Periodontist Finally Had Good News (Pockets Went From 4s To 3s)
This sounds small. But sitting in that chair bracing for bad news had become my normal.
Three years. Every cleaning. Deeper pockets. More recession. The same gum graft pamphlet I kept ignoring.
Week six with HealRay — my hygienist went quiet.
Then looked up. "Linda. What are you doing differently?"
Pockets down from 4s to 3s. Inflammation gone.
No bleeding. Teeth stable.
I cried in the parking lot.
