Dental


"Now show me your teethhh"


I went t the dentist t'dy cus I had a pretty bad toothache. Turned out that I've got this decayed molar tooth on the top :( Omgness it didn't hurt until yesterday night, or rather, a week ago, I could feel slight pain but I wasn't certain which part of my teeth was it coming from. If I had done dental checks on a regular basis, this wouldn't have happened. I take pretty good care of my teeth, maybe I don't floss, but I brush my teeth almost three t four times a day and yet this still happeneddd.

So now, I can't have the cavity filled anymore. The only two options would be 1) root canal treatment 2) extraction. My dentist advised extraction since root canal treatment is fucking costly (up to two thousand buckaroos). However, extraction would mean the wisdom beside that decayed tooth has t be removed as well t prevent the wisdom tooth from tilting into the empty space (after the decayed tooth is removed, that is).


I. am. freaking. afraid. of. injections/extraction


I've had the rest of my wisdom teeth grown as well. The top two are fine, there was space fr them t grow straightly... But m*f*... the bottom two didn't so they'd require surgery. Not that urgent BUT STILL. STILL. STILL.


I hated going dental 'cus I've just this innate dreadfulness towards the equipment and occasional pain when the dentists do the teeth-checking/cleaning process. But I think I've definitely learnt my lesson. I'm fucking going t the dentist every half a year from now onwards, haha, ALL OF YOU TOO yeaa
