dentists–too much

there is something going on with my dental care. A young dentist in Florida completely destroyed my bit with a bad crown. My teeth were never right after that. Dentists kept trying to fix the problem with new crowns.

Then I saw a dentist here who did terrible work. I got a nasty shot that had me in agony for three days. The pain went up to my right eye.

Then, I went to a different dentist and everything was well for a time but then I went there and the x-ray tech cut the string under my tongue with the xray plate. I wasn’t aware of it. The dentist said did you realize you were bleeding. No, I didn’t. She said it was not the x-ray technician but I knew that it was.

That was the end.

I saw a video of myself talking not so long ago, a few years. And I was horrified. My head snaked back and forth. I looked absolutely awful.

I will probably be losing my teeth.

I have a very good dentist now but I can’t afford dental care and the problem is too serious. He did some good work but I can’t pay for more. Before, my mother paid.

Ive already given up about 7 teeth.

Well, since Im not taking any medicines that give me dry mouth any more it will be okay. Before, I was terrified at the thought that I wouldn’t be able to get dentures because the medication made my mouth dry and dentures cling through the moisture of the saliva.

So, now I am on Clozaril and it INCREASES saliva. Don’t know what impact that has.

This last month in the hospital really did it. Its funny, I remember that all of this that’s happened over the last year and a half started with a problem at the dentist’s office. I dont really know what it was or how to describe it but the young tech assisting the doctor said something that got me entwined in something in a way that was inappropriate and I desperately couldn’t lose this Dentist. And then I departed for a year and a half and i have been having trouble with a bad tooth for about 6 months. With everything thats going on, I haven’t had the chance to go back there.

So, add that to the list of my status quo or woes.
