Hello my amazing Flickr friends !
Today is a green day at Color my World Daily and I have a dentist appointment. Usually I love green days : I have tons of laundry to fold and a 10km to run so what is there not to love , I’m asking you ? But frankly, this week I don’t feel so joyful about my green day…I’m very, very anxious about dentists and all their tiny but sharp instruments … I’m also very, very attached to all my teeth and I don’t like any people, especially those holding syringes or other sharp or drilling instruments, touching my teeth…But, I have to go since I have dental insurance at work and I have to visit my dentist at least once a year… So today is the day….I will probably drink with a straw for the rest of my day after my appointment and I should have some very funny conversations with Alexa . I’m sure I will have some pronunciation challenges ahead of me ! Wish me luck !
And if you wonder: my today's picture has absolutely nothing to do with my dental appointment.... My teeth line looks a little bit like my picture (very uneven) but it is the only common point. Oh boy, my dentist will have some major work ahead...
See you later my friends ! Mucho, mucho amor for you all !!
Thank you so much for all your lovely comments / favs/ general support / happy thoughts!! Stay safe and well!!
Zagreb, Croatia, main street Ilica, the nostalgia of the 1950s. Hairdresser and makeup Marylin Monroe, city baths Diana, pink furs, shoe repairing and a dentist clinic.
We took a day trip to Los Algadones Mexico and learned something interesting. Evidently Los Algadones is very well known as a town for tourists from the US and Canada to come to for dental work, medications and eye glasses. Cheap prices, good work, and many of the clinics accept US insurance!
This is a typical street in Los Algadones and I count at least 10 different signs for dental offices. If you're curious just plug these numbers into Google Maps and see how many you can find:
32.71340805178894, -114.73698994533632
It seemed strange to walk into the town and get touted for dental work, medicine, and glasses not cheap trinkets. "Hey buddy, you need a good dentist"? "Lady, lady, best pharmacy in town right here"! "You looking for Botox"? "1 hour glasses, we got them here". "Come inside, we've got medicine and liquor here".
The touts were really hustling for customers because no one was walking the streets. It was 106 Fahrenheit (41 Celcius) outside a little warm for a casual stroll.
Interesting little town, evidently it gets packed in the winter with the snowbirds. Don't think we'll be going back any time soon and no, we didn't get any dental work!
A greeting card on the bulletin board of my dentist. Sorry it's a little fuzzy; I thought it was worth sharing, anyway.
WILKESBORO NC: WILKES HERITAGE MUSEUM: Not only is this drill an antique, but I remember going to dentists who had this equipment. I guess that makes me an antique?

This little lady vet is "floating" our horse's teeth - a procedure required to smooth the sharp points off their molars so they don't cut their cheeks. That is a battery operated drill she is using with a 1" round diamond disc. She seems to be very skilled and definitely bold about her attack!! Glad it's the horse and not me (even though I am the TuthFaree!)
Had to repost this image out of respect for nature and disgust for some small minded dentist..
Looks like a "lion crate", but no, it's a photo of this magnificent cat relaxing at the Calgary Zoo.
The King of Beasts seems unaffected by the many Zoo patrons trying to get a closeup photo of him.
It was more interesting to watch the humans', in particular, the children's reaction to the Lion King; the King was somewhat indifferent to what was going.
The dentist and his assistant have a patient they need to work on.
It still needs some work. I think I am going to add a scene or two to make this better.
This sculpture's tooth fell out and now the dentist is trying put in a veneer. LOL

...at Beamish Museum in County Durham.
Ravensworth Terrace originally stood on Bensham Bank, in Gateshead, and was built for professional people and tradesmen between 1830 and 1845. Beamish Museum saved six of the houses from demolition during the Seventies, and rebuilt them between 1980 and 1985.
Numbers Three and Four are, respectively, a dentist's practice and his family home.
A wooden sculpture made for my fantastic dentist , ( photo is textured), Thanks for the visit have a wonderful day.
Dentist DANA: "Open your mouth, Bruno! Hmmm, you need a tooth pulled! Probably overdoing it with sweeties...."
........................................
Dentist DANA: "You were a great help with the tooth extraction, Bruno! It only cost you half as much. The right molar was extracted in three attempts. Don't worry about the fang.... You still have three. You'd better listen to your best friend Maija and eat more carrots. Ha ha ha!"

What started as a bit of fun on Twitter, during the first lockdown a dentist tagged a picture of a heron with #dentistswithherons This then led to much activity by dentists taking pictures of herons. There was an article published in the British Dental Journal about it. A badge was made by Fattorini Ltd in the Jewellery Quarter, Birmingham and money was raised for charity. So the next time you visit the dentist ask him or her whether they have seen a heron......
Eastern State Penitentiary, Philadephia, PA
Designed by John Haviland and opened on October 25, 1829, Eastern State is considered to be the world's first true penitentiary. Eastern State's revolutionary system of incarceration, dubbed the "Pennsylvania system" or separate system, encouraged separate confinement (the warden was legally required to visit every inmate every day, and the overseers were mandated to see each inmate three times a day) as a form of rehabilitation.
The Pennsylvania System was opposed contemporaneously by the Auburn system (also known as the New York system), which held that prisoners should be forced to work together in silence, and could be subjected to physical punishment (Sing Sing prison was an example of the Auburn system). Although the Auburn system was favored in the United States, Eastern State's radial floor plan and system of solitary confinement was the model for over 300 prisons worldwide.[citation needed]
Originally, inmates were housed in cells that could only be accessed by entering through a small exercise yard attached to the back of the prison; only a small portal, just large enough to pass meals, opened onto the cell blocks. This design proved impractical, and in the middle of construction, cells were constructed that allowed prisoners to enter and leave the cell blocks through metal doors that were covered by a heavy wooden door to filter out noise. The halls were designed to have the feel of a church.[8]
Some believe that the doors were small so prisoners would have a harder time getting out, minimizing an attack on a security guard. Others have explained the small doors forced the prisoners to bow while entering their cell. This design is related to penance and ties to the religious inspiration of the prison. The cells were made of concrete with a single glass skylight, representing the "Eye of God", suggesting to the prisoners that God was always watching them.[8]
Outside the cell was an individual area for exercise, enclosed by high walls so prisoners could not communicate. Exercise time for each prisoner was synchronized so no two prisoners next to each other would be out at the same time. Prisoners were allowed to garden and even keep pets in their exercise yards. When a prisoner left his cell, an accompanying guard would wrap a hood over his head to prevent him from being recognized by other prisoners.[8]
Cell accommodations were advanced for their time, including a faucet with running water over a flush toilet, as well as curved pipes along part of one wall which served as central heating during the winter months where hot water would be run through the pipes to keep the cells reasonably heated. Toilets were remotely flushed twice a week by the guards of the cellblock.

The original design of the building was for seven one-story cell blocks, but by the time cell block three was completed, the prison was already over capacity. All subsequent cell blocks had two floors. Toward the end, cell blocks 14 and 15 were hastily built due to overcrowding. They were built and designed by prisoners. Cell block 15 was for the worst behaved prisoners, and the guards were gated off from there entirely.
Inmates were punished with the "individual-treatment system." At the time this form of punishment was thought to be most effective. They would be separated from others.[9]
In 1924, Pennsylvania Governor Gifford Pinchot allegedly sentenced Pep "The Cat-Murdering Dog" (an actual dog) to a life sentence at Eastern State. Pep allegedly murdered the governor's wife's cherished cat. Prison records reflect that Pep was assigned an inmate number (no. C2559), which is seen in his mug shot. However, the reason for Pep's incarceration remains a subject of some debate. A contemporary newspaper article reported that the governor donated his own dog to the prison to increase inmate morale.[1]
On April 3, 1945, a major escape was carried out by twelve inmates (including the infamous Willie Sutton), who over the course of a year managed to dig an undiscovered 97-foot (30 m) tunnel under the prison wall. During renovations in the 1930s an additional 30 incomplete inmate-dug tunnels were discovered.
It was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1965.[4][10]
The prison was closed in 1971. Many prisoners and guards were transferred to Graterford Prison, about 31 miles (50 km) northwest of Eastern State. The City of Philadelphia purchased the property with the intention of redeveloping it. The site had several proposals, including a mall and a luxury apartment complex surrounded by the old prison walls.
During the abandoned era (from closing until the late 80s) a "forest" grew in the cell blocks and outside within the walls. The prison also became home to many stray cats.
In 1988, the Eastern State Penitentiary Task Force successfully petitioned Mayor Wilson Goode to halt redevelopment. In 1994, Eastern State opened to the public for historic tours.
