Good Day Gone Bad
Have you ever had a day start off good and then take a fast track down hill? This is my day today.
I've been having issues with my new implant. It has been very sore for weeks. Today when I was flossing after lunch, the floss was covered in blood. I called and they wanted me to come in. This was my xray:
As you can see, there is cement that was left in the gum and tooth area. My dentist said I should play the lottery because this usually only happens once, maybe twice a year. We started with floss and it hurt. They numbed me up with a short lasting anesthetic and it didn't work. He had to go ahead and numb me with the other stuff. Between all the digging spraying etc. it took over an hour to get the cement loose from the tooth and remove it . Needless to say I am hurting like a &(*&(&*()$#*()& insert whatever nasty word you would like.
Better day tomorrow? I think so :)

ReplyDeleteYou WILL have a much better day tomorrow!!
Oh ouch. I'm sorry :( only happens once or twice a year? Is that because that's how often he does implants? Sorry, I couldn't resist asking the question. It just seems like a dumb thing to tell you.
