The D Word

Dentists. Good Lord.

I don't think anyone particularly likes going to them. Regardless, I had to this afternoon to check my filling. Thankfully it wasn't damaged; however, one of my teeth was chipped, so they had to grind it down.

And then came the talk.

I got the whole spiel about how my gums are terrible and I don't know shit about proper brushing technique and oh my God just looking at them hurt. Yes, I know I don't take as good care of my mouth as I should. But dammit, I don't need it rubbed in.

So, they gave me a bag full of dental tools and brochures and sent me on my way. Not a fun experience. And I'll have to go back in three months instead of six. Fuck.

I really hate the dentist.

I just found out I have dental insurance, which is good because I need to get my bottom teeth fixed. But I hate dentists...

Yeah, neither my experiences with dentists where nice. My first visit went nicely, got rid of a black spot and got patched up, but the second one... The doc drilled a relatively healthy and no-problem causing tooth just to patch it with an useless seal which breaked after just 24 hours and caused me the most dreadful pains by now.
