Food?
Eating sucks now. This... thing... sucks. Everytime I take a bite, my teeth clench down on it, which sends a shock wave of pain into my gums and jaw. It sucks especially eating noodles because they are so thin, so I take harder bites. If I had something thicker I could chew it better on just the right side of my mouth.
I took an ibuprofen about 10 minutes ago. When I'm done eating I'll take my next codeine. Ibuprofen doesn't seem to do much for the soreness. Scared to eat without this damn 'tooth retainer' in though, because of the gaping hole in my gums that perhaps food would have an easy time getting into. And that leads down to my jaw -- what a bad scene that would be!
Randomly I got an e-mail to fill out a survey on my experience at the dentist office. Goody goody! I made sure they knew how my experience went.
I won't be going back so I don't care if its not anonymous.
