The Dentist

Well, i came home with teeth, so that's good lol. They were wonderful there! So nice even tho i hadn't been to the dentist in forever. I do have gum disease tho so i have to start brushing 3 times a day and flossing at least once a day. I can pretty much only drink water unless i brush afterwards. They cleaned my teeth and did a periodontal pocket measurement. My front teeth aren't so bad, but my back ones are nasty. And there's a list of at least 1/2 my teeth need something done to them...either a root canal or extraction or fillings. OH! And can you believe how much fillings are if you get the white ones over the silver? MY GOD! If i get silver it's like $13...if i get the white it's closer to $100!!! so unless you can see the damn things when I'm smiling, i'm going for silver. Kevin too. He needs a couple cavities filled. His teeth aren't nearly as bad as mine, but he's not gone to the dentist in a long time either so he's got the beginnings of periodontial disease...whereas I'm in like stage 3...my teeth can still be saved but i have to work at it.

I have an appt Nov 14th to get a couple extractions done. I'm hoping i can find a job by then so i can pay for this work AND the wedding. I almost wish I hadn't set the date so soon...i could use another year to get things together. *sigh*

I'm just so happy i have teeth that can be saved. I'm going to end up being a freak about my teeth. They still hurt. I got some choloraseptic spray and the tylenol of course. They said they'd be more sore today than usual (and they were right) cuz of the measurement thing. OH! and both of us have to go get a deep cleaning as soon as it's approved by our insurance. They promised they'd put me under for it cuz of the sensitivity of my gums. Thank god! I'm hoping they put me under for everything lol

So i'm going to eat some dinner and watch "Pirates of the Carribbean" for awhile. *hugs* thanks everyone for being supportive of me and my bad teeth.

Tomorrow

I have much to say about the weekend, but today my thoughts are on tomorrow. We're going to the dentist tomorrow morning @ 11am. My tooth is killing me right now. I'm pretty sure it's not even much of a tooth. I can feel it wiggling. I've had about 20 rapid release extra strength tylenol since Monday. I'm staying away from the ibuprofen cuz it thins your blood. I'm really hoping they give me something to help the pain (and fix it of course) but nothing too drastic cuz I'm supposed to work on fri & Sat night @ O'Tees. I'm so scared they're going to decided that all my teeth need to come out tho. Kevin says he'll still love me even if i have no teeth lol but I'm so scared. I haven't been to a dentist since I went to Keith West in like 1999 or 2000 and he fucked me all up. I was having toothaches and called. They had told me originally they couldn't get me in until monday (this was friday afternoon) then they called me saturday morning at 8am saying they could fit me in. Well i had been drinking the night before @ work (karaoke) but my mom said not to worry cuz they would just give me antibiotics and something for the pain and have me come back in a week or so (that's what they did to her) so i went in and they took xrays and said 2 teeth needed to come out. they shot me up 3 times and yet I still felt the pain and was screaming at the top of my lungs as they pulled my teeth...then they didn't give me anything for the pain but a prescription that couldn't be filled for 2 hours cuz the pharmacy wasn't open. So i never went back to a dentist. And now I'm going to lose all my teeth cuz of it. I'm so scared.

Well time for another couple pills....my tooth is hurting so bad i have an ear ache.....and I'm gonna try and get some sleep tonight. *hugs*
