I've had bad teeth most of my life. I hated the taste of tooth paste. My Mom wouldn't supervise me, so I'd wipe them clean with a towel sometimes. I've had so many cavities in my life. My Mom worked overnights at a 7-11 and other years of my life she worked days at a deli.. so I always had Jolt! cola for breakfast and sugary cereals.
How many teeth are in your mouth? Let's say there's 34 because I am too lazy to look it up. Well, one time the dentist told me I have one less cavity than half of the number of teeth.. so in this example it would have been 16. I remember going back every few weeks for more work. It was horrible!
As I got older I remember going to a dentist that put a needle in my arm to put me to sleep. They pulled 8 teeth in one visit! 4 wisdom which were imbedded in my jaw and 4 others. I awoke during the work and I heard the nurse say "he's waking up and we haven't finished, give him more" whatever the liquid was. I went back to sleep.
Another time I went to this other dentist and he had to use 6 shots of novacaine to knock out one tooth. He was doing a root canal. He would put a shot in and wait.. then he'd start drilling and I'd go ouch.. so he'd put another shot in and wait.. start drilling and I go ouch.. 6 shots it took to knock out one tooth. This same dentist once had to shoot one up into my gum. It was the worst pain I ever felt. Also a root canal. My fist balled up and I was going to punch him. It's the only time I've ever had that rage inside of me.
So about 2 weeks ago I went to sleep and woke up with a toothache out of nowhere. I've had some toothaches over the years, but they don't last that long. No idea where this one came from as I felt fine the night before. Since then I've been trying to eat carefully, but only on the right side of my mouth. Tonight I felt confident to have some nachos.
So, I pretty much hate anything to do with any medical stuff. I might have a small fear of needles and drills and that stupid tool they use to poke your teeth. Let me poke you and you tell me if that hurts. Of course it hurts.
