So I've just come home from an appointment with the maxillo-facial surgeon and I feel absolutely awful. The appointment went for about 10 minutes (at a cost of just under $250 dollars) and I was told that I probably have a cyst in my jaw and I need one of my wisdom teeth removed.
The surgeon was arrogant and unfriendly. For the first time since I started my journey, I felt looked down upon and treated like a lower class person because of the state of my teeth. I was saying something to him and he interrupted me and said: "you realise you have a cyst don't you?!". No one is explaining to me what that actually means and it's making me feel like my life is over. When the appointment ended, the surgeon didn't even say goodbye or anything, he just showed me to the door.
I have to get a cone beam scan because he can't conclude that I have a cyst from the 2D image and then see him again.
I feel like absolute trash for having bad teeth.
