I'm glad you got it taken care of, dental problems are the worst and so bad when you let them go for too long. I had a small bottom front tooth pulled before I got invisalign. I didn't feel a thing in my mouth, but the dentist was literally pulling my jaw back and forth, back and forth, wiggling it out. Yeesh. I saved it too, is that weird?

My strategy is simple: I keep my eyes SHUT the entire time I'm sitting on that chair. I don't want to look at what tools or what utensils are going into my mouth, I don't want to know when the shot is coming and I DEFINETLY don't want to take a look at those plyers!! Fned.

Hmm I'll keep that in mind. And don't tell anyone but I too like the taste of blood sometimes. Gross huh? Yeah it’s tempting to set a separate vacay for dental work. Hmm I’ll keep that in mind.

That tooth is the bane of my dental existence... 3 root canals, 2 crowns... and then the tooth next to it went haywire too... Ryan in the 3rd grade lost tooth #19.... Good riddance, I say!!

Thank you for the free swag, Adam and Martina! Darla: I have to admit that in small quantities, I kind of like the taste of blood. It's metallic, or something. Sara: Yay, we love Jorge! Purpledragonfly: Thanks! Good to know I'm not alone. James: You know me so well. I would have freaked out if the grill hadn't lit. But not all over anyone, it would have been the quiet freakout where I just can't let shit go. Like Woody Allen, only a girl. Amy: I kind of forgot that it was something I should tell you. I would never have asked you to do that for me! But yeah, I think it would be kind of cool to see all that gross shit. The reason I got faint, I think, is because I was the one who'd just had her tooth yanked out. I don't think it was because I saw the pus, 'cause the pus, that was cool.

Why didn't you let me know? You could have had it done here for free. I see the infection. Too bad you had to loose it. Good thing you didn't feel it. Sometimes the infection can get so bad that it laughs at novacaine. Once, a guy had such a bad infection we had to do a I&D (Incision and drainage) with a scalpal, right into the swelling, no anestetic, cut thru and I am not kidding GREEN puss came out. I couldn't stop my reaction and exclaimed "awe cool" and Moy just looked at me as I pulled away shocked myself that I said it out loud. The patient, he never heard me, he was almost in shock from the pain, but almost instantly felt 100% better. You would be a good dental assistant. Well, except for the faint part, but the love of gore Heather Ellen!! Why didn’t you let me know? You could have had it done here for free. I see the infection. Too bad you had to loose it.

Heather is going to explode." And, it was perfect.

Reminds me of the time, many years ago, when I was seven months pregnant with my son, and the dentist was hammering my jaw trying to get my wisdom tooth out. I can still remember him yelling at the nurse, "more suction" as the blood was pouring down my throat. Hopefully you will not need any more teeth pulled. The one thing I like about going to the dentist is having my teeth cleaned. My dental hygenist loves to talk so the time just flies by. Oh, you poor kid!!
