"What? No Tooth Fairy Visit?" Harumph

October 6th, 2011 at 12:41 pm

Oh, the indignation of it all was too much for my son to bear.

The tooth extraction turned plural to be teeth - they took tooth #15 as well as the wisdom tooth. Too far gone - apparently panorama pictures show much more than regular x-rays.

I've learned:
(1) Tylenol 3 doesn't work as well as vicodin
(2) I *heart* nitrous oxide, though I'm still plagued by the cracks of my teeth being ripped from my body
(3) My son will gladly fork over the $1.85 in change from his piggy bank because the tooth fairy doesn't come to visit grown-ups, apparently.

Since I'm in bad shape, I'm going back to bed. Not a lot of swelling, but its like a migraine eminating from from my jaw, moving upwards. Awful.

    Hope you feel better soon. You are braver than me. I was put out to have my wisdom teeth removed and I think they'd have to put me out to extract any other teeth.

    Sorry it's so painful. My daughter just had her wisdom teeth out this summer and I well remember how much it hurt her. Hope you feel better soon.

    Oh, I've been there, and I am so sorry! I know how much pain it leads to... and it isn't cheap, either, without dental insurance. Heck, even WITH dental insurance it can be a pretty penny. I hope you're feeling better soon!
