I visited Seoul Michigan Dental Clinic. After the examination, the doctor said it was too late to start treatment for my painful tooth. He recommended that I have the tooth extracted. Although I felt he was a professional, I could not make such a major decision right away. I asked if he could perform a root canal treatment instead, even if it might be a waste of money. After the treatment, when I tried to pay, my credit card did not work. I had to find an ATM to withdraw cash. The total cost was 780,000 KRW (85,000 JPY). My life and my assets are being drained away by my bad teeth&#8230; I cursed God a little, but I had no choice. I literally wanted to die. I rested at a cafe for about two hours, and then I visited a sushi restaurant. I ordered the special course. It included raw garlic shoots and carrots with miso dip, tuna sashimi and sushi, fried ginkgo nuts and garlic, rice porridge, miso soup, grilled fish, shrimp and potato tempura, and some pickles. The food was delicious, but due to my terrible tooth condition, I could not enjoy or finish all the dishes. The cost was 49,000 KRW (5,300 JPY). I thought I should have chosen a cheaper dinner since I could not enjoy any dish, no matter how delicious it was. I fell asleep around 8 or 9 pm but woke up around 2 am.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I left the hotel at 11 am and took an Uber to go to the dentist.
