I should be a dentist.

[gemsybobsy]

My face swelled up over the weekend. No pain as of yet, but I think there will be soon. This morning I was talking to a friend on Facebook about my teef. I said that I will be given an x-ray, antibiotics and then a root filling - I was correct. Total cost of treatment? £316. FFS. I diagnosed that six months ago. Damn thing's already been filled twice. I reckon you should get your money back from fillings that fail. Grrr. So annoyed. The x-ray also uncovered an impacted wisdom tooth. AAAAARGH. WORST NIGHTMARE. I hope it stays the hell where it is so it doesn't need taking out!

When were you happiest?
Probably before I was aware, hahaha. Or y'know... now? I may get pissed off with myself in social situations but I am kinda happy with how life's turning out.

What is your greatest fear?
Failure. Having to have teeth taken out.

Earlier on, at the dentist's.

How often do you have sex?
I don't.

What single thing would improve the quality of your life?

My dad calls our dentist Robin - short for Robin Git. And that's even though he's an NHS dentist... Fuck knows how much my orthodontistry would have been if I hadn't had the NHS place. I am terrified of ever losing that place, so I intend to stay registered at my parents house and no matter where I am in the world I will come back to get my teeth looked at there.

Yeah mine is private, but she's brilliant. She's retiring next month so they were eager to get me sorted before she leaves. Great, that's nice of you, thanks, you're so thoughtful... that'll be three hundred bleedin' quid. Man. I might start looking for an NHS one. :( The thought of having to see someone else scares me shitless though!

Having wisdom teeth out is amazing though, it's a right giggle :D Dun hurt at all and the sedative is hamaaaaaazing :D

But £316?! Fuck almighty! I'm dreading having to start paying for dentistry :( I think it's ridiculous - when I was younger I always assumed it was free, but it bloody well should be! Teeth are dead important!

Awww my sis had all four of hers out at once and looked like she'd been in a fight afterwards. I'm lucky that I only have one that might cause a problem... and it isn't yet! :( Of course it's been aching since I found out about it being impacted. FACE. PALM.
