I am still hopped up on painkillers from yesterday’s root canal experience, good thing I am in the office. It’s going to be a “fun” day for me at least. My computer screen currently looks like a portal to another universe and the sound of my fingers typing is as loud as a million elephants dancing Swan Lake on a tin roof!
You would imagine I learnt a few valuable lesson from this tooth drama, like to floss more frequently, eat less sugar, yada yada good teeth heath and hygiene. Yeah right! I went straight home and ate the homemade brownies I made the night before. Hey all I can eat are soft foods and they say “guilt free” on the box– justify justify justify! So the big lesson I learnt yesterday was drum roll.... Whatever you do don’t turn around after the dentist has finished drilling into your skull! Seriously I mean it! You might turn into a pillar of salt! What I laid my eyes on was right out of a Saw movie (I have not seen this film as I pee myself in terror just looking at the box, this is how I know it is the most horrific movie of all time!) Lying nonchalantly on the table was a tray filled with bits of my mouth! This primordial soup consisted of drool, bone, tooth, blood and some other unidentifiable yellow ooze.
SICK!!!
The worst part was by the time I left they had still not removed this Petri dish of hazardous waste. What were they saving it for? Stem cell research???
P.S. Tooth fairy pay up! I deserve a FAT check from you based on the amout of tooth I gave up yesterday!

ouch! cringing just reading that. Upside, good drugs i hope?
ReplyDeleteWoow, your description really makes it sound ouch... hope your mouth feels better soon. I somehow think that dentist was not the best there is, I have had a few of those done, and I never even used a pain killer afterward. And make no mistake, I am kinda lazy when it comes to taking pain... So maybe you should go back and step on his foot with a 6 inch stiletto heel.
ReplyDeleteHope you feel better soon, you are brave to be back at work already!
