Well I now have 4 less teeth

I have been having tooth pain from my bottom right wisdom tooth for awhile now but that past few days have been pretty bad. I made an appointment with a new dentist today at 3:30 & was hoping he could do something for the pain. He took some xrays & said that the one that was bugging me def needed to come out & he suggested he take out all 4 at the same time.

ALL my wisdom teeth were impacted so I was sure he was going to refer me to a oral surgeon but nope he said he could take them out. The next thing I know he is bringing me 3 pain pills & getting ready to take them out! I was totally shocked but I was all for it. This is the perfect week to do it since I do not have extra kids (Amanda's kids are in Disney Land) and it is in between quarters for me at school.

Anyways, 30 minutes later & LOTS of shots in my mouth, they were all out. The bottom 2 took the longest to get out since their roots were intertwined with the teeth next to it but he managed to get them out. I am telling you watching him twist & pull was kind of nerve wracking so I closed my eyes for part of the time, lol

The kids & Paul were waiting in the waiting room for me but the kids could see me in the room. Aidyn said he saw them do the shots & pull a few of the teeth. I kept looking over & giving him the thumbs up because he was so worried about me. Then I made sure to save the teeth so the kids could see. The dentist actually said one of them was the biggest one he had ever seen! Madi is learning about teeth in school so she is going to take them for show & tell on Friday, LOL Oh I also told the kids that I did not brush me teeth very good when I was little & that is why I had to have them taken out. Just a little white lie but if it gets them brushing better, no matter.

Alrighty my blog readers, I am all drugged up on pain pills & starting to ramble so I should probably stop for now.
