Fang Update

Thanks to all who wished me well on my Fang appointment.
Good news...no more pain.
Bad news...I lost the fang. Apparently I had split it down the middle and the Dentist could not repair it with a crown.
I now have a gaping hole in the middle of my upper molars.
*sigh*

Nothing makes you feel OLD like a Dentist sitting discussing a partial to replace a missing fang.

Aafrica: I told the Dental assistant to bury it...although I warned her that I had better not find it on ebay! :P

Mei Lian: ha ha ha ha! Man, I've never craved chips so much as NOW!! I can't have them for at least 3 weeks! :( *cries*

When I had my wisdom teeth removed, I wanted to keep them but when the dentist told me that he usually donates them to classrooms for students to learn about dentistry, I withdrew my request.

Loofa: I wonder if they extracted any wisdom in the dental classes? :)
I've never had wisdom teeth taken out. This was my first fang extraction...yet...I don't feel any wiser. Hmm...

Ugh! I hope the discomfort will pass soon.

Bob: I decided to hold off making the soup. I was afraid of tiny hamburger particles at war with gaping new hole from loss of fang!


Laoch: I know--Ugh is exactly the right word! :)

Dragonlady: My man laughs at me cuz I have a lisp now from my tongue getting stuck in the fangless hole! ...he likes to live dangerously ... :>
