Tooth is OUT!

Okay, final stumbling block is out.  I knew the tooth was a goner, but I honestly expected more drama from getting a wisdom tooth out.

Dentist was amazing.  Dentist’s assistant was really cute.  I spent the time in the waiting room before hand talking to a girl who may have been literally half my age.  She was oblivious to the constant sounds of drilling in the background.  It was probably evil of me to point it out.  Then some poor fifteen or sixteen year old came out with her entire face like swollen.  Doc was great, though.  I didn’t feel nothing.  Just figured out a plan, talked to the pretty assistant for a bit and then lay back and got stoned on nitrous.  I’m surprised it wasn’t illegal.  Now I’m taking the minimum dosage of Vicodin.  I was all worried but I guess that tooth just needed out.  Really doesn’t hurt all that much.

See, it doesn’t take much to make me happy.  I haven’t stepped on the scale yet, but I think I may even have managed to lose some weight through this last week.  I’m not gonna potentially mess up the good mood with an early weigh-in but the clothes just feel looser.

    Good job Kev…I absolutely hate the dentist…not so much that it hurts but we had a crooked one growing up….he liked to “invent” cavities…totally f*** up my teeth!

    Good luck - clothes feeling loser is certainly a good sign. Are you sure the vicodin is a low dose there?

    ha ha I used to hate the dentist til I found the one I go to now… he told me ” you’re paying me enough…. I’ll pump as much anaesthetic into you that you want… you wont feel your face for the rest of they day!”… he is officially the best medical professional I have EVER been to!

    Oh and wisdom teeth? Think it’s only bad if you get more than one out at one time. I had one out when I was in the middle of work placement…. I had to go to placement the next day with a big ass swollen face on me! Dint hurt though

    It is a small world. The nitrous is a good thing. I had it last time I got my wisdom tooth, and I requested it this time. And then they forgot o_O But, it wasn’t as bad as I thought it would be. It didn’t hurt, but the sounds were horrible. Glad your experience went well though!
