Yesterday I went to zee dentist. It was the first time I had been in like, a year.
So being the insane hypochondriac that I am, I expected Dr. Dentist to tell me I had a mouth full of cavities, or that I needed 10 root canals, and then he'd have to call in his assistant to look at my mouth because it's something they've never seen before.
But of course my mind got the best of me and I came out cavity free! And then I went home and skipped around and danced on beautiful rainbows. Yeah...WRONG. I went home and basically had a meltdown because Dr. Dentist told me 4 little things were breaking through my gums--WISDOM TEETH!
"Excuuuuse me dentist man..but I think I can keep these
babies where they are..they are called wisdom teeth...
I'd like to keep my wisdom."
But oh he did not agree.
"They might come in crooked and cause your teeth to shift which can
cause you great pain in the future and possible tooth loss.
Let's reassess in 6 months or if you feel pain before then, come right in."
AH! Needless to say, this chick is worried. I don't want anesthesia. I don't want people drilling in my mouth! It's bad enough having the electronic tooth brush, the water thing, and the water-sucker-upper thing ALL in my mouth at the same time during a simple cleaning!! What's going to be in my mouth as they dig into my gums and yank out my teeth? Yeeesh!
Happy Tuesday!
