Feb. 1st, 2010 01:35 pmI have survived the dentist. I want a nap.
I learned I hadn't been for a check up and cleaning for THREE years! Time flies when um, you're not keeping track of it.
So first they did x-rays where they established what I already know - my teeth are terrible. Then they cleaned my teeth. And found even more problems. Then the dentist came over and the hygienist listed off the 5 billion things wrong with my teeth and they discussed how urgent each one was.
After that, the dentist fixed one cavity. The "easy one," he said. Half my face is numb....
I have an appointment for the 12th to take care of the rest of the cavities. I have many....
Once those are fixed, I still need a crown for my root canal teeth. Also, my bottom wisdom teeth need to come out. They said I need to be knocked out for that, so they also suggest I get the top ones taken out too. Because I have cavities in my top wisdom teeth and it would be easier to yank them than to treat them.
I wish I hadn't said I would work half the day. Sure, it's working from home, but I'm really tired... Maybe I'll just deal with the urgent stuff and then call it a day.
