Aaaaaaaaaaaargh, I had to get an old filling replaced today, and it SUCKED!
I havn't had to have any dental work done since I was pretty young fortunately. When I came to the US, my teeth were in really bad shape and were for a long time. I remember a lot of dental torture growing up.
At some point things became normal and the only thing I've had done in 20 years is my wisdom teeth. And they knocked me the fuck out for that one.
I went for my cleaning last week and apparently I have three silver fillings that should have been replaced 15-17 years ago. He changed out the top one today. It was all the way in the back of my mouth and that shit hurt!
Not so much the pain, but the young and smell of my tooth being drilled down. Ouch! They had to put child's spacers to keep my small mouth open. The jaw part hurt the most. Same with him feeling the needle shooting me up with Novocaine.![]()
I freaked out so much that he gave me a script for one valium and I have to come back to take care of the other two.
One valium only? Sucks.
So ladies, make sure that you have your ancient fillings replaced at some point, or they will create fissures in the surrounding tooth. He said I might need crowns when all is said and done. That really sucks and I hope he isn't saying that to make more money off of me.
This entire ordeal was really traumatizing.![]()
