And a lot to go!

Just got back from the dentist. They had to use 2 different needles (one MUCH bigger than the other). I didn't feel the second one, thank god. The first pinched a helluva lot though. Altogether, despite it only being 2 needles, I had 12 shots in my mouth.

Other than that, it wasn't bad. It got sensitive a few times when they hit teeth and it made me cringe, but that was only one tooth, and I had my eyes closed, so I tried not to pay too much attention. o_O

I have two more 1 hour appointments. Right now my lips are still numb (And I got it done at 9:40 this morning). My teeth aren't numb anymore, when I first got it done they felt like jello. They actually grinded down one of them to the point where it's pretty damn small.. So next time I'm gonna have to have them fix the other side so it'll match and won't look as farked up.

Phew.. :elephant:

Well it's funny, cuz I've always brushed my teeth twice a day and all that jazz. It didn't even look like there were cavities there at all. The only time I noticed something wrong was when my back wisdom tooth finally came through and I noticed it had decayed. Which they said it was because only the crown of the tooth had come through, so the rest was unbrushable.

No one would even think that I had cavities by looking at them. o_O In fact after they filled those 5, they looked exactly the same as they did before! Oh well.

You can normally tell if you have cavities, when i had my cavities i could tell. They probably just trying to get some money off you.

Nope. Don't eat a ton of shit, never have. x_X

And yeah, I thought it was pretty weird that you can tell absolutely no difference. And the reason why I have so many (according to them) was because they said I don't floss enough.

The cavities aren't in the center of the tooth, they're very very very small. Ah well. When they told me I had so many I figured they were joking with me, and when they showed me the X-Rays I couldn't even see anything wrong with them. Hmm..

Even so, if they were to try to get money out of me, they're getting the money out of the insurance company, so they can have fun.

Do you floss?

If not that explains it.
