I went to the dentist today.
Yea for me! NOT!
I am having corrective and pre-prep work done to prepare for Invisalign and professional whitening.
Today’s visit involved a big long needle that numbed the left side of my face. Geez! Did I mention I do NOT like needles? Well I don’t! In fact, when that needle was coming at me (and trust me its really long and scary looking) I had to close my eyes and pretend I was on vacation somewhere exotic. Which did not work for very long.
They are drilling out anything that is old (I have old fillings since I was like 7) and replacing them with white fillings. One main molar has to be replaced with a crown, as some previous dentist believed in filling one tooth with multiple fillings instead of just removing it and putting in a crown. That molar is so bad that when they were going to drill it out today the dentist stated “If I drill that tooth it will completely crack and we will have no choice but to put in a crown today”. Nice!
I have to go back sometime this year and get that whole molar redone. Oh and did I mention that because my fillings are so old I have metal in them that can seriously hurt me/my body if they ever crack or break and I swallow them? Yep, this was not simply a vain thing, even though the thought of having a pretty smile until I am 100 appeals to me. 🙂
Stay tuned as sometime in the future I will have Invisalign, all white teeth, and an even prettier smile.
So…I guess you have to pay the price of drills and big long needles!
This is what comes from hehe association!
Indeed! Now I have to correct what has been done! Say a prayer for me please! Save me Save me!
