Oh Fub, yeah, I know that people normally get sedated when they have their wisdom teeth pulled, but mine aren't impacted or anything. They're fully out just like any other tooth in my mouth (I had 6 teeth pulled as a teen before I got braces, so I had plenty of room once they came in). Seeing as this is a regular dentist and not an oral surgeon, it's just a routine extraction. LOL - "routine". NOTHING dental is "routine" to me!
While I had her on the phone, I asked the hygienist for the down-low
on getting a tooth filled, since I have no memory of the fillings I got in December. She said that if it's a tiny cavity and I get it done soon I might even be able to get away with not needing to be numbed up, much less sedated.
I'll be curious to hear what the dentist has to say next week. He's got some 'splaining to do.
