dentist!
10:30 a.m. - Sunday, May. 31, 2009
I'm well aware that I'm a procrastinator and I shouldnt save my hw until the weekend when its due but..so not my fault that it wont be passed in on time. Fucking BB isnt working. nope nope. and they dont knwo when it will be. I need to find my professors info to see if he lists an email that isn't BB related. bleh.
ahhh well.
I figure I'll finish what I know I can do and get done. we'll see how it works out.
Oh! So! Went to the dentist. first time in 15 years people. nuts.
I need 3 teeth pulled (knew that was coming) 7 fillings (that too) and a crown.
woohoo.
first up..i'm getting the teeth scaled. yep.
cause i have peridontial (sp?) disease. woohoo people. ha.
This be scaling in case youre unaware.
i get to have the whole area numbed and tw seperate appts to get it all done and the infection stopped.
then i get the extracted teeth and my fillings.
then the crown.
and then to replace my extracted teeth.
woo!
nice huh?
they did tell me they were impressed that i didnt have cavities b/t my teeth, it was obvious i took care of my teeth and my bone density was great.
YAY!
i was all worried i'd get lectured and scolded for not going. instead they were super nice and extremly stright forward which is always welcome with any kind of medical professional as far as im concerned.
Patty has had the scaling done and said it didnt really hurt after as far as she was concerned.
Becky has a crown and said the process of getting it sucked but after it never bothered her again.
and Auntie had teeth pulled and they numbed her and it was fine when it healed. My uncle had a few issues with his extractions bleeding later but that was about it.
So i'm feeling all right about it.
of course, i did not opt for the dental coverage when i got my benefits and therefore am gonna have fun paying for all of this.
but i make money, and i've been saving to move. plus i have my snhu money that i just spend when i feel liek it. instead i'll keep it for my dental goodness.
*sigh*
i feel better now that i've been there.
and everything im hearing abotut he scaling. is that yah it doesnt feel great but its no worse than the tooth aches and discomfort you already have.
if doing all this will let me go a full year without having days that i consume more oral jel then food. i'll be a happy camper.
