Stuff pulled out of my head...
Mar. 9th, 2007 01:03 pmThings you DON’T want to hear an oral surgeon say while he’s working on you:
“Well, that didn’t work.”
“This just doesn’t want to come out, does it?”
“Suction up that piece of bone there, would you?”
Needless to say, this was NOT an uncomplicated extraction. The tooth had to be broken into fragments and removed. I suspect things will be unpleasant once the Novocain wears off.
Despite the situation, this guy’s GOOD. While he had to do all kinds of nasty things, I felt no real pain during the procedure.
Mike had a wonderful idea-headphones and music. I could hear the doctor (and icky sound effects), but I concentrated on the Tarzan soundtrack. It really helped!
