She made me plenty numb, but I knew I to put my worry pants in when she started shoving PINS in my GUMS to keep my mouth open, like a certain infamous torture scene in Takashi Miike's Imprint.
Oh god, there was so much blood, and I can already tell that there is going to be PAIN GALORE when the numbness wears off.
4 hours in the chair. Numbing agents, both local and injected, were applied 4 times. 2 of those were needle injections, each application requiring 3 shots. I cun't feel my face. I literally thought they blocked up my nose with padding to keep dust out or something, but my face was just that numb.
On the plus side. My front teeth are straight for the first time ever. On the minus side, this single appointment cost over 2k. And I have another cleaning session in 2 weeks that will cost me ~800. And a week after that I have to get permanent tooth replacements put in, which I am sure isn't cheap :( And my insurance is all used up. After 1 visit.

So you didn't have perio?

Ouch, you should take a couple of days off next week. So did she also put in braces today?

They didn't mention it. They were focused on deep cleaning the area where they needed to replace shit, and actually replacing the teef. There was a lot of blood, and the hygenist said she's going to call later to make sure I'm not in too much pain when the shit wears off. She put some sort of antibiotic stuff on the section she cleaned because that produced the most blood.

how did you lose your front teeth?

Good for you man, I know this was a big step for you. You only get one set of teeth, it's worth the pain to take care of them while you still have them. And uh...from now on...preventative maintenance huh?
Don't be afraid to hit up the dentist twice a year, that way each visit is a little less intense.
