How long will this take, part 2.
I was right, it took less time to get the tooth out than it did to fill out their paperwork online, but both the Doctor and his assistant were very kind. He numbed me up to my earlobe on that side of my face, so I couldn't feel anything and it took maybe 5 or 6 minutes to get it out. So now I'm on a soft-foods diet and not allowed to use a straw to drink anything and the like. Which is actually kind of good, because now I can't eat chips and other hard things which are pretty bad for me. Lots of mashed potatoes and cutting my meat up into little tiny pieces. In other words, I'm eating like a two-year-old! But I've managed to lose a few pounds, so it's win-win all the way!
