discolé monade Posted August 1, 2019 Share Posted August 1, 2019 i for one really love going to the dentist to get it done. admittingly, it's been a few years since i was able to do this. lucky enough, my insurance gives me free cleanings...*but i still got charged for another set of xrays, assholes* anyway...did you know that now 'they' 'sandblast' your teeth? that was a little weird feeling. *it's not actually sand..but some sort of powder* man...oh man i love molesting my teeth with my tongue. weird..right? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wacky1980 Posted August 1, 2019 Share Posted August 1, 2019 err....i kinda hate the dentist. anything where someone else has to touch me on/around my face, i'm pretty much not ok with it. i'm sure if they knocked my ass out with the gas, i'd manage. but i'm just not really interested in letting someone else put their fingers in my mouth. god damn. kinda makes me gag to think about it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You mean... either you didn't like it when she kissed you on the lips / cheek / forehead or with tongue, or she just didn't do it at all, for a few years???

Yeah, I posted about that on the [asmb]. "Microabrasion". I think they use a type of salt from the taste of it - my dentist used it to clean out a cavity for filling. Much nicer than that freakin drill. So you only got a regular cleaning, not the "deep root" kind? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vamped Posted August 2, 2019 Share Posted August 2, 2019 I dont like people in my mouth. I think my mom took us to the dentist maybe twice when we were little and I've been paying for dental benefits but not using them. I take the miniature to his pediatric dentist regularly though so atleast hes using the benefits. >.> but I think my wisedom teeth are coming in so ... might have to go T T Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

garbagepailcat Posted August 2, 2019 Share Posted August 2, 2019 I got dental insurance recently and really need to go have my teeth cleaned. It has been a while, and I have some deep stains behind my teeth from drinking coffee and smoking. I have extra bones in my mouth though, and plastic bits on the X-ray things always hurt so bad. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

katt_goddess Posted August 2, 2019 Share Posted August 2, 2019 My hobby is growing tumors. It's been really productive. I'm a year overdue for what's supposed to be a twice-a-year jaw check to keep blobbies from reoccurring [ a good chunk of my face is actually medical plaster and a steel peg from evicting blobbies ] but once I can finally get away from work long enough for that crap to happen, I also schedule a cleaning for the same day just to get the taste of rubber gloves and x-ray props out of my mouth. It's a full day of fun right there. Haven't had the micro-blasting thing yet. If it's faster and less annoying than the scrape-n-poke, I'm all for it. The faster I get that little bag of Crest garbage the better. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Top Gun Posted August 5, 2019 Share Posted August 5, 2019 My dentist doesn't do a "sandblasting" thing, at least not to me, but several years ago they started using this high-pressure water pick instead of those deadly sadistic metal picks for the main cleaning bit. Soooooo much better. Those death needles used to make my gums bleed like a Saw movie. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
