The funny thing is that I'm okay with my actual dentist and with getting work done on my teeth that involves drugs. It's the plain ol' cleaning I detest.
Spike's Bitches 22: You've got Angel breath
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
I've been to the dentist once since I've moved to NYC.
Starting in April, I'll actually have dental coverage, and will be completely out of excuses. Damnit.
I had a deep cleaning (under the gums) a couple of weeks ago. She numbed me up so I didn't feel much. It was pretty great.
Have to go back Saturday to have a filling redone.
And I know I'm not all that good about it, but nobody flosses more than my mother and she gets it too. Like I'll know she's dying if she doesn't put floss on the list. I believe there's heredity gum weirdness that we can't floss away. But dentists never believe that.
my first cleanings invovled drugs ( the return to the dentist after well, lets just say a long time) -
it has improved since then. go go sonic care toothbrush - and my hummingbird electic flossers, which is mostly silly, but that seems to be what motivates me to use it.
beth, sympathies. I've been having sooo much fun at the dentist's lately. The filling, the emergency filling, the root canal, the emergency crown prep when the emergency filling fell out and left my tooth all ragged and scraping my tongue, the permanent crown placement that was this Monday....
I am not going back for another 6 months. Minimum. They can clean my teeth then.
I can't even remember how long it's been since I was last at the dentist. I desperately need some dental coverage, so I can get some work done.
ah! dental talk!
In nicer news, I made an appointment with Jen and vw's hair stylist for Saturday. I'm so excited to get my hair cut, haven't gotten one since September.
I tried to make an appointment to get my hair cut Saturday, and my stylist is on vacation until the 28th. I look like a yeti.
