Wisdom Teeth

Well it looks like it's time for them to finally come out.  My dentists have seen them for the past 4 years but have put off removal.  I'm officially telling them it's time because my mouth is telling me its time.  I can now feel them coming in, which is not exactly comfortable.  Unfortunately, I don't have time because of school.  I have to wait until I'm home for Christmas which is in about a month.  Looks like lots of Ibuprofen for me!
I went to a new dentist for the first time last week to have them look at them.  I was a little bit nervous considering I've gone to the same family dentist in Soldotna since I had teeth for them to look at.  In my whole life of going there I never once had a cavity, which means I'd never had a filling.  I had to go to a new dentist here so they could give me a referral to an oral surgeon back home.  While there they did the wrong x-rays and found two small cavities that they decided to fill right then and there.  My first ones.  My mouth was numb for hours, including the back of my throat.  It was an interesting experience and I'm excited to go back where everyone knows me in my tiny dentist office on Binkley St.

Forever and Always
