As we speak I have a wisdom tooth growing in, just popped through the gum a few weeks ago, feels weird to be getting a new tooth at 24, but I think I deserve a visit from the tooth fairyCathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07281283633816135416noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5493931967911268192.post-73006970932191773782009-09-16T22:40:52.068-04:002009-09-16T22:40:52.068-04:00Pamela: I sense that your words of comfort are of...Pamela: I sense that your words of comfort are offered somewhat grudgingly - but I'll take what I can get. I read your "teeth" post and was shocked to find that, except for a few minor details (the 30 year age difference; my receiving only a local anesthetic so that I could savor every whirl of the drill and tug on my jaw; I drove myself; no Frosty and no ruined shirt), our experiences were almost identical. Kind of. And my pain meds aren't that great. A tank of nitrous oxide would be tons better.<br /><br />Dedene: They told me to avoid alcohol as it would irritate my wounds. I think more choclate ice cream would help, though.<br /><br />SK: The bandages were only for holding ice packs in place. I've been using a scarf since discarding the original gauze. They used gauze pads rather than cotton balls in my mouth though. I plowed through more than half a box on the first day.<br /><br />Jess: Yeah - I've had to beat the women off with a stick. Some guys will do anything to accentuate their eyes and cheekbones.
