In which my teeth are GORGEOUS.

In other news, I went to the dentist today. My teeth look fifteen years younger. My gums are rejoicing. It’s a fabulous thing.

Not so fabulous was when the hygienist used the Cavitron on my upper molars, and it sounded like some soprano-voiced creature was being vivisected at about two thousand decibels, inside my head.

“MY GOD THAT’S LOUD!” I said after I winced and made a face and she stopped. “It’s so loud it hurts! What a horrific sound!”

“Your teeth’s roots must go way into your sinuses,” she said.

Somehow, I doubt that comment was calculated to make me feel sexy.

    Oh, that reminds me that I need to go see a dentist…. I don’t wanna….

    You know I wish they would provide you a noise canceller headset or something while they are at it. When I had to have my wisdome tooth extracted, it wasn’t painful at all but the sound was so awful… I realy freaked out! So your lyrical input about the sound was so easy to relate to. 🙂

    Noise canceller please. period. really.

    I haven’t been to the dentist in EONS. seriously, it’s been … eek … 13 years? I need to go. But, since I’ll need to have my wisdom teeth out and I don’t want to be yelled at for being a bad dental patient, I’m procrastinating.
