Even with my wisdom teeth extracted, in addition to all of the other current injuries, it all still hurts less than one dislocated kneecap. However, it is hard to do most anything without the use of my dominant arm. It is pretty much like I only have one arm, period. It is hard to wash my hands, put on deodorant, wash dishes, tie shoelaces, button or zip up a coat, type, and wipe.
Eating is actually easy, or was until I got chipmunked in my mouth. I’m deft with left-handed utensilry. I ended up getting my hydrocodone Rx filled, because the tooth throbbing was so ridiculous. [Apparently no special character exists for the prescription symbol]. I only have a $5 copay for generic prescriptions which is sweet. I did have to drop 20% of the cost of my extraction though. Buying a Mac is going to have to be put off for a couple of months.
🙁 This sounds like more drama than merely a dentist appointment. If it is, perhaps you need a new dentist…
If you look a couple posts back you’ll see what happened to me. The oral surgeon was extremely capable and efficient. Took my teeth out in about 10 minutes.
