Title:
I got a boo boo! - Toothache
|
I hate teeth. Some days I wish I could have them all ripped out and replaced with everlasting plastic alternatives or something. Maybe I should go gums and eat through a straw the rest of my life instead. Ok, I don't really, most of the time I'm very happy with my teeth, but today I have a toothache.
This side of my jaw has bothered me on and off for a while now. It's not debilitating but it's getting frustrating enough and at the moment it's hurting my tongue as well. Of course I can't actually get to the dentist today, that will probably have to wait until Friday.
What's worse is after nine months of waiting on the waiting list for a regular dental appointment so I can be part of the regular patients list on Medicare subsidized dental care instead of full price private care I didn't get my form back to them in time. So, basically I'm no longer on their list. That means I'll have to go in as an emergency dental, wait in the waiting room probably an hour or so for them to fit me in (first come first served style) they'll fix the problem tooth up and it'll be covered 75% on Medicare and I'll end up back at the end of that darn waiting list again.
I guess I shouldn't complain. I mean I tend to only want to see a dentist when there is a problem. Besides, it's my own fault for not brushing often enough.
Oh well, I guess I'll live on asprin for a few days and try to remember not to rub my tongue against the broken tooth.
