    I doubt anyone noticed but i didn't post anything yesterday. That's because i was in too much PAIN. This was my day yesterday: had to get a crown lengthening meaning the periodontist had to remove some of my gum and bone so the dentist can fit a crown. Turns out I cracked the tooth in such a way that even if I had a crown put on it, the original tooth would probably come out in a year or two. Well, I'm not paying $500 for a crown just to loose it in a year. So we decide to remove the tooth now. Turns out my teeth are as stubborn as I am. This is one of my back molars so it's a biggun. He could not get it out in one piece and eventually had to cut it into four pieces and remove them that way. The area itself didn't hurt at first but I think my lip almost reached the back of my head the way he was pulling my face. After THREE HOURS we were finally done. Leave the office with the left side of my face looking like a chipmunk and my mouth full of gauze so I couldn't talk. Stopped at the store to get broth since I couldn't eat solids for awhile. Fell asleep shortly after. Woke up when the novicaine wore off. Now, i have a high pain threshold. I once drove myself to the emergency room and had emergency gallbladder removal surgery an hour later and drove myself home the next day. But I was crying like Nancy Kerrigan. He just had me take naproxen so I doped myself up with NyQuill to sleep the worst of the pain. Still in pain but worked myself up to string cheese and mashed potatoes. The damn suture end is irritating the inside of my lip--might have to trim it back further. Start my new job tomorrow (yippie!) but I hope I can stop slurring my words. Don't need a random drug check my first day! :badger: note: the periodontist did recommend the tea bags as some suggested to me. Turns out it has a coagulant in it.

            I remember my first root canal. I was a teenager, just growing into new strength. It was a tooth that was long dead from being hit with a door (short story, but not pretty). Anyhow... the dentist doing the root canal missed with the needle (ever notice how they have a 3 inch needle for accessing less than half an inch of gum tissue?)... anyhow... all the injection dripped on my tongue making it lay in my mouth unable to move.... In those days they strapped your head down with blocks on the side of your head, blocks in your mouth so you can't move in anyway. I didn't feel the drill on the tooth so much as I felt the vibration in my jawbone. That was enough as he drilled away the dead nerve, hollowing out the tooth... He was almost done when the chair cracked. I had squeezed so hard and pressed my feet into the ground that I broke his chair.... he looked at me and said, "do you feel this?" .... good thing my tongue was numb, all I could do was grunt and look at him with eyes that said, "duh!! what do you think? I just came here for the excersize in breaking dental chairs?" I've had my share of dental tortures, and miracles. Give and take I guess. Or perhaps if you have enough procedures the law of averages says that some must be at least half-decent? Good luck on the job! At least work might keep your mind on other things, not completely I am sure, but distractions make time move a bit quicker. Work makes a pretty decent distraction. :)

                        I was one of those kids whose parents didn't care and I never brushed my teeth--they just didn't make me. I usually brushed them for school pictures. I know, gross. I got two cavities in grade school and didn't have any other problems. In high school though I developed OCD and one of my manifestations was constantly brushing my teeth. I'm surprised I have enamel left. Other than this one tooth I've been fortunate to have good teeth even though i didn't take care of them when little. Since both my parents had dentures I guess I lucked out.

This was my day yesterday: had to get a crown lengthening meaning the periodontist had to remove some of my gum and bone so the dentist can fit a crown. Turns out I cracked the tooth in such a way that even if I had a crown put on it, the original tooth would probably come out in a year or two. Well, I'm not paying $500 for a crown just to loose it in a year. So we decide to remove the tooth now. Turns out my teeth are as stubborn as I am. This is one of my back molars so it's a biggun. He could not get it out in one piece and eventually had to cut it into four pieces and remove them that way. The area itself didn't hurt at first but I think my lip almost reached the back of my head the way he was pulling my face. After THREE HOURS we were finally done. Leave the office with the left side of my face looking like a chipmunk and my mouth full of gauze so I couldn't talk. Stopped at the store to get broth since I couldn't eat solids for awhile. Fell asleep shortly after. Woke up when the novicaine wore off. Now, i have a high pain threshold. I once drove myself to the emergency room and had emergency gallbladder removal surgery an hour later and drove myself home the next day. But I was crying like Nancy Kerrigan. He just had me take naproxen so I doped myself up with NyQuill to sleep the worst of the pain. Still in pain but worked myself up to string cheese and mashed potatoes. The damn suture end is irritating the inside of my lip--might have to trim it back further. Start my new job tomorrow (yippie!) but I hope I can stop slurring my words. Don't need a random drug check my first day! :badger: note: the periodontist did recommend the tea bags as some suggested to me. Turns out it has a coagulant in it.

                              I also looked at some of his past comments. Most of them are nothing but name calling and swear words with asterisks.

                              I was wondering about the "Report as abuse" when I saw this. What happens once it's reported?

                                      I did not know that I could not vote an "Abuse" after I vote him a one. So from now, I need to keep in mind that when rating such idiots, I need to report abuse instead of voting one.
