Round 1 of my fun time excitement with the dentist. If you forgot why i mention the dentist, please refer to this link: http://www.pso-world.com/viewtopic.php?topic=103995&forum=11&11
for it refers to WHAT exactly will be done these next sessions or so.
This gets alittle hairy, so if you don't like the talk of blood or shit like that, I'd suggest you click back now.

My dental work in a nutshell.
Start at 9:40, i am nummed with red jelly (ohm jelly at that), it taste like strawberry and made me very giggly. My chair is dropped to about flat angle, and a pillow was applied to my head. My eyes naturally close, about 3 shots on each tooth was applied. We got 6 teeth worked on today. EIGHTEEN SHOTS.
She was alittle off when doing the jellying, cuz one shot hit my nerve and i was screaming horror D:! She flinched, something about my dentist is she hates seeing ehr patient in pain. Which is kinda sweet, >>
Moving on; Scaling is done to 6 teeth, in case you're unsure of what that is, it is Deep Rooted drilling through the gum line (removing the things brush/floss just can't). ANother spot was uneffected by the shots/gum and caused me to twitch. These pains are quite stinging, very quick drills at burning heat (+water) makes my mouth feel very uncomfortable. I was drooling bloody spit for a while :3
After say 60 minutes of that, and some x-rays, in comes some major emergency problem. Some sort of issue is in my tooth, and my gum (near my previous surgery [removal of the lip flap that connects the mouth to the gum]) was growing back over it. BIG NONO. So she had to slice the gum across that tooth, exposing my nerves.
After some bleeding later, the filling began, my gums were bleeding too critically for me to get the real deal so im stuck with fakey's til my other half of my is done. That'll be next week. In the mean time, im popping drugs, and avoiding chips, soda, candy, cake anything SWEET COLD OR HOT. (or all 3 for that matter) because if any of it hits my nerve, im in fucking pain zone. :|
Well after the surgery and shit, got the usual "brush harder, massage the gum, TOUCH THE NERVE WITH THE BRUSH/PASTE/RINCEWASH, blah blah". And take medcine :| Im running outta excedrin, that stinks. Oh yeah. I was swell up from the numing too. From 9 til about 6 pm i was fat faced, it felt that way, but only my lip turned purple and tucked in. I couldnt talk, and it was NOT COOL meeting a marine lady wanting to talk to me. I drool alot too. :|
THe pain of my nerve lasted all night, in spurts. However today not too bad. I was able to eat, and had more rice and lentils. Im gonna try Apple pieces/watermelon tomorrow or something. See how it rolls.
Oh yes, doing this procedure was like 99 something for each tooth. 289 for the real deal fill.
MORAL OF THIS STORY?
KEEP YER FUCKING TEETH IN ORDER. ITS MORE FUN THEN A ROOT CANAL!
