Flossing sucks

[tortoisegirl]

One of my wisdom teeth has been hurting a lot over the past week, enough to need a painkiller, plus my gums would sting terribly whenever I drank anything. Went to the dentist today. The pain and stinging is apparently common wisdom-tooth stuff, but it turns out I have cavities in all four of my wisdom teeth (my first cavities ever ;_;) My options are to either fill them or have all the wisdom teeth pulled. I guess I'll have them pulled, since the dentist said they're likely to develop cavities again and wisdom teeth are jerks anyway. Certainly not something I'm looking forward too, though.


And so this isn't just a post about me and my teeth, here are some creepy disturbing videos featuring cats.

Yea I would just get your wisdom teeth pulled, especially since they'd probably continue to cause you pain in the future.

If you're looking for an orthodontist to go to for that you should go to Dr. Wank on West Chester Pike. After the operation, they give you a t-shirt that says "I got Yanked by Dr. Wank". hahaha

My doctor said he could do them at his office (I guess mine aren't too complicated, since Lisa's getting hers out too and she has to go to an oral surgeon). I doubt there's t-shirts though, lol. I'll be glad to get them out, I think.
