I went in to see my dentist today to have a couple of old composites replaced. I figured it would be a fairly quick and uninvolved procedure. Heck, it was pretty quick and easy 15 years ago when they put the composites in.
Boy, was I wrong.
Apparently the sadists that call themselves dentists have improved their methods of torture.
2 giant needles + 2 hours of grinding + a rubber dam (see pic below)= buckets of fun!!
Anyone ever had a rubber dam put in their mouth?
i don’t remember the last time i went to the dentist. pretty sure it’s been at least 4 years. i figure they’re not hurting, falling out, or turning black so i must be doing something right.
Yes, I was lucky enough to have the rubber dam…2 months pregnant with Lando and very much in my nausea stage already. Plus, I have very sensitive gag reflexes. They had to take it out like 4x so I could gag into little pan. So Im with ya on that…they suck.
You often make me smile and laugh - which is really tough to do when you have a rubber dam in your mouth! Thankfully, I haven’t had one in a while, but that picture brought back lovely memories
My dentist is very liberal with the laughing gas, so it’s never too torturous!
thats a GREAT look for ya…..you should try it on sunday!! although it might make it a bit difficult to sing…….
Eeesh…sounds like one step down from waterboarding!
Great job on the blog, Jesse!
I had a dam in my mouth for a root canal. It was honestly the most unpleasant part of the whole procedure because it made me drool like a buffoon with no way to salvage my dignity.
