Tooth Issues...

Picture it, Nashville, Dec. 2005.......

I had to do what I hate almost more than anything in the world - I had to visit the dentist. I knew going in that it wasn't going to be a pleasant visit; I had to have fillings replaced.

When I woke up the morning of, I was sure to eat a large breakfast because I knew that I wouldn't feel like eating the rest of the day and boy was I right. I very begrudgingly drove the 2 miles to the office where I would be subjected to torture that I wouldn't bestow upon my worst enemy.

After being called in and put in "the chair" the only comfort I found was from watching Ellen on the TV that was in the ceiling above my head. It was fun, almost relaxing, I could have taken a nap; it was all ruined when she walked in; she being the dentist of course. It was time for the novocaine. Novacaine shots are the #1 reason I loathe going to the dentist. And so it started, two shots on the bottom, one on each side, one shot on the upper right, one shot on the upper left and then the mother of all shots, in the back on the left right in the middle. That last one brought me to tears.

As I sat waiting for the novocaine to begin it's magic, I went back to watching Ellen and found my happy place once again. After about 15 minutes, she came back in, only to discover that there was one key spot not getting numb. Therefore, she had to give me "the mother of all shots" again, although, she said I wouldn't feel it due to the previous shot. I'm here to testify, don't ever believe what a dentist tells you because it hurt worse. This time I cried. Hard. But, it worked.

Dental work was completed, all was good.

Fast forward a few days and the family embarks upon our journey to Kansas - and I am in PAIN. My jaw (where the 2 shots were given) hurt even at the thought of opening my mouth and I had a headache that wouldn't leave, this lasted for 2 weeks.

And just when I thought my troubles were over, one of the teeth that she worked on has begun hurting so badly that I can't utilize the right side of my mouth for eating or drinking. So, sadly, I'm going to the dentist today and I'm sad.
