May. 23rd, 2008 12:45 amIn 7 hours, I will be having a wisdom tooth removed by an oral surgeon (Dentist couldn't because the tooth is on a nerve and is so infected it will just shatter during removal)
I am beyond nervous. Partly because my experience with dentists is limited - my first dental visit was when I was 19, since I never had dental care as a child. It was all my parents could do to afford health insurance at times. I spent a lot of time in the waiting rooms at free clinics...
My asthma is still acting up, so being sedated terrifies me. Still, with my TMJ I know I would be too uncomfortable if I don't go under during the procedure. My jaw will be cracking for days after anyway.
I am such a big chicken about dental work. I'm just proud that I made it through my first root canal and crown a few months ago. Wah!
OTT, one more week of school left. I will be packing my classroom all next week because our school is finally replacing our 20 year old nasty carpet *Yah!* and repainting the walls *boo!!!* I just spent $50 repainting them last year myself.
I'm still looking for a new car. I really liked the Mitsubishi I drove today ;)
