The day after: The Dentist

Well I survived.  The cleaning was actually worse than the crown prep.  Does this mean I’m about to be a king?  The ordeal left my mouth pretty sore and several bad tastes were introduced as well.  Though one of them I didn’t taste because the hygenist said “if you get this on your tongue you will be PISSED at me”.  The hygenist is great and honestly if not for him I’d have a hard time getting that work done.  He’s been doing it for 30 years, I guess he’s everything BUT an actual dentist.  Told me about his first trip in the army to Somalia.  He said he imagined he pulled about a thousand teeth in the first month he was there.  He gets the job done but he helps make you comfortable and cracks jokes most of the time.  Helps to take the mind off of bits of tooth flying out of your mouth.

I can’t wait to get all of this work done!
