Alright, so I had a dentist appointment today, blah blah blah, apparently... I have two tiny little cavities.
This is complete bullshit.
I am THE biggest stickler for oral hygiene EVER. I floss at random times throughout the day simply because I hate having things between my teeth. The hygienist and I had a little conversation, which went something like this:
Her: *giggle* "Someone needs to floss moooore..."
Me: "Hahahaha, riiight. ::pulls container of floss from purse for demonstration purposes:: Wait, huh?"
Her: "You have a cavity, er, two little ones-"
Me: asldkjfhghlkjkyrtlngytuewpyoh;nsrtYOUHAVEGOTTOBEKIDDINGMEAAAAHHHHHHH ::dies::
So bottom line, I'm getting my fillings on Monday, and I feel like a gigantic dirty scumwhore.
In other, as-pleasant dental news, I'm getting my wisdom teeth pulled at some point in the near future.
Thumbs up to:
- General anesthesia. I'd leave those fuckers in there forever if I couldn't be asleep during this whole procedure.
- Getting another retainer (yes, NUMBER THREE) after the teeth are pulled to fix my teeth for good.
- Painkillers. You can bet your ass I'll be refilling my codeine prescription like a motherfucker.
Thumbs down to:
- Novocaine. Needles + my mouth = I kill things.
Bad experiences tend to do that to a person.
- Surgical procedures in general. I've never had surgery before, and even though it's 'only getting teeth pulled' I'm kinda freaked out and not really looking forward to it.
