Metal Mouth Message Board

*starts counting down*

I had X-Rays of my jaw today Found out that all of my wisdom teeth are beginning to erupt! I already knew that one of them had, but it kept appearing, then going again :? So...I am expecting to have my wisdom teeth yanked :shock: And the filling I had done on Tuesday doesn't really feel as though i...

:mrgreen: Last appointment!!! Or was it?? :wink: This filling was a metallic one and it tastes gross! I had the appointment at 12pm... and I had to figure out what I was going to have for lunch with a numb mouth - I settled on noodles :lol: :lol: The dentist was telling me about the orthos and how ...

Thanx for your kind words Karen. That's exactly what is happening to our centre I made myself another appointment with the ortho today, but he's going on holiday for a month and the earliest I could make it was June 21st :?

I have some pictures to share: Me and my brother when I was 4 (he was 2). As you can see from my smile, I had no teeth. When I was two, I had an infection in my gums where all my teeth rotted and fell out: http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a81/sigs34/pixi.jpg Me now - 23 years old: http://i9.photobu...

I was always called Stacey Dracula or Dracula's Daughter because of my front fangs. I had a teacher when I was in Grade 1 who said my teeth were awful. When I was 2 years old, I had an infection in my gums and all my teeth rotted and fell out :shock: People in my prep classes used to call me Gummy ...

Got another appointment today with the dentist I'll be stretching it tho - as I start work at 4pm and my appointment is at 1:45pm. Last time he was running late. And the worst thing is...I work in a call centre, where I speak on the phone all the time :P God know's how I'm going to manage to do tha...

I don't know what I was so worried about! I had my two fillings and couldn't feel a thing!! The dentist was half an hour behind in his appointments, so it gave me time to relax :P He deadened the gum first with this hottt gel stuff, then stuck the needle in both sides of my mouth. I didn't even fee...

I avoided the dentist for about 10 years too! Last time I went I had a tooth taken out with no warning whatsoever! I think it scared me for life!! :shock: :lol: But I had been doing a lot of thinking (and soul searching) lately and decided what the heck...it was only a dentist...nothing to be scare...
