Yesterday I went to the dentist. Over the years I'm going to have to say I have grown less and less fond of every new dentist I have had. I have come to the conclusion that the dentist that pulled most of my teeth when I was really young was a VERY good dentist. My second favorite was one I had when we first moved to Idaho Falls, haha who just so happens to be my bishop now. That's where the good ends and the bad begins. Ever since the site switched to their new HMO (2003-ish?) style stuff I haven't been very pleased. Then while I was living on my own I went to Skyline dental and they were awful! I went in to get a tooth filled once and they had to shoot me up 5 times, 5 TIMES!! Ugh it was awful I was numb for more then a day after. Yesterday they had to give me two shots and I was on the gas stuff. Thank goodness for it. The last time they didn't give me any gas I went home and the next morning my muscles everywhere were sore! I had been holding my body so tense that my muscles were sore for a couple of days.
Back in the day, nope I don't miss those things at all.
The week I got them taken off!
And none of this is to say I have very many cavities because I don't but my dentists aren't very good so I have had to get them "fixed" or in other words, "hey so remember when we filled your cavity? Yea so we didn't fix it all the way so now we are going to take the old one out and put in a new one, is that going to be ok with you?" No actually it's not ok, but with the 6 years and two sets of braces I had on top of surgery to bring my canines in I would die if I had to wear dentures, have a root canal, lose a tooth, or get caps. After all that hard work years and years of pain once every 6-8 weeks at the orthodontist I can honestly say I like my smile, I'm even a little vain about it, it was a lot of work. Can you blame a girl? No, no you can't. This is the part where I will wrap up my ramblings (yay she does have a point!) Minus me going in to get my teeth cleaned, I have decided, I don't like the dentist.

LOL well at least you've gone in... :| i've been REALLY bad... and havent gone to the dentist since i've moved to utah,... so its been 3 yrs... is that bad? And Jeff has ALWAYS hated the dentist. I dont think I could make him go if I wanted to. He's only gone, if he's absolutly had to. I'm more worried about him, he's always had bad dentists, they really messed up his mouth and he doesnt feel like paying them to mess up again, anywayss..... so ya. Dentists are sometimes no good. :)
