dentist aftermath

[juldea]

So, first dentist's appointment in 2.5-3 years.

Good news:

• No cavities! OMG! I totally thought I'd have some.
• Dentist complimented me on a nice white teeth.

Bad news:

• Textbook case of gingivitis.
• Need crown on the cracked molar on lower right side of mouth.
• Need three wisdom teeth removed.

Yay, oral surgery. :P

I also got free mouthwash, toothpaste, toothbrush, and dental floss, a tutorial on how to brush and floss correctly, and a recommendation to ask for an electric toothbrush for Christmas. Heehee. Sonicare or Oral-B, for those who care.

I had mine taken out three days ebfore Christmas... mostly so I could not miss any work whiule recovering (Scheduled for Friday, due to CHristmas, no work until Tuesday), whihc would have been good and all but the fuckers laid me off a week before that (telling someone "Oh, yeah, we're laying you off" before Chsirtmas is rude. Telling them during FINALS is sadistic). So I spent my Christmas not being able to eat much (but the traditional Chrsitmas Eve meal in chicken wild rice soup, whihc was perfectly fine) and hopped up on drugs.

Thanks for the warning... I'll see if I can be scheduled for a Friday but not one before Christmas!

Ooh, Martin Luther King day is a holiday. I should get it done the Friday before that, so I have a three-day weekend.
