I'm gonna be taking a couple of weeks off from the forum.
I scheduled an appointment for oral surgery tomorrow at 9:00 MST to remove my wisdom teeth, get a few extractions, and get my teeth fixed, before my dental coverage is up. Since I just got Medicaid (1/1/14, due to their expansion) and the dental coverage ends when I turn 21, I had to get it booked within these 6 days of the new year.
I've had jacked-up teeth since I was a kid; Too many of them and all crooked (unlucky sheep in the family). I had planned on doing this a few years down the line, but this is a golden opportunity for me, since I can get it done at no cost. I had 10 teeth removed in 2nd grade, but it hurt like hell since I wasn't fully numbed (my old dentist wasn't much of a kiddy person
).
I'm scared as hell, especially since I've heard people dying while being under, but I don't want to watch them work on me. All I know is I'm gonna have a hard time sleeping tonight and it's gonna suck to not have any solid foods for awhile.
See you guys later!
And please wish me luck...I'm terrified. XD
