My (hopefully) Last Visit To the Dentist For a While
So as you may know having read a previous post of mine, that I have spent quite a bit of time at the dentist recently so today was no exception. I had to go and have two fillings replaced as they had cracked, one on each side of my mouth at the top. This meant an injection in both sides of my mouth resulting in an almost completely numb face, apart from my chin!!
The procedure was fine except by the end of it I felt like I was wearing someone else's teeth, kinda like breaking them in for a friend!! So when I got back to the car I immediately looked in the mirror to inspect it all and to see how grotesque I looked when I smiled.
Now normally you only have one side of your mouth numb when you have a filling done and so when you smile you have this lopsided thing going on however, when you are numb on both sides I guess it must be like having botox done because when I looked in the mirror and smiled the face looking back at me was grimacing. I looked like I was baring my teeth much in the way dog does and no I'm not calling myself a dog thank you very much just using it to explain the look on my face :)
Anyway, thankfully it's worn off now although my lips are still tingling and I only had the injections 12 hours ago :S
Fingers crossed for no more trips there for another 6 months!
