So I am one of those people who cringe when I hear the word Dentist...When I was a kid, my parents rarely took us to the dentist, usually when something is hurting is when we would go. Well I continued that habit as an adult, and hate it. I would like to not be a pansy ass, chicken shit when having to go. But I am...I am the biggest wuss of all when it comes to going to the Dentist.
So a month and a half ago, I had some major tooth pain. I had let it go for so long and put up with it so much, it came down to losing sleep at night. So finally I called around and got into a dentist. I explained my history, and added that I am the biggest wuss ever, will you please be nice. They were. They chuckled a bit when I asked for the nitrous laughing gas, but I didn't care, It calms me down and makes me be able to handle being in that chair. So I have gone 3 times in the last 3 weeks, lost 2 teeth, that were broken, got a crown, and a filling, and next will have to get my 4 molars surgically removed. (they are sideways and impacted?) I guess that's bad. They are knocking me out for the molars..thank god! I can't handle the noise, the high pitched squeals send shivers up my spine and I get the chills.
When the Dentist first looked at my mouth he asked if I had a high tolerance for pain. and I said yes, he said my teeth look like they have been bothering me for a while. Yep, pretty much.
So hopefully I continue going so I don't have to lose any more teeth and go through any more pain.
Today's Blog is #30 on 30 days! I made it through NaBloPoMo!!! YAAAAA ME! I didn't think I could do it at first, but I guess when I plan ahead and stick to something, I can accomplish cool things!

I fear dentist as much as you do. While I have high tolerance for pain, I dont have high tolerance for dentist
Eddie is your twin. I have to drug him and drive him to the dentist AND he needs his teeth surgically removed because they are sideways and impacted....maybe the dentists are just telling people that to get business for their partners!!!
