Just got my first root canal done and had a bad reaction to the laughing gas. We took it off and waited for me to recover before starting the procedure, and I’m sure the only reason I kept my sanity for the next two and a half hours was my fidget cube.

The nose mask of laughing gas took forever to kick in, but the second it did was AWFUL. Felt like my lungs and rib cage were a cartoon beehive that’d been kicked. Angry bees inside me. My entire skin tried to crawl away. That’s when I freaked out and we took the mask off. Then I started sobbing uncontrollably. Couldn’t stop for ten minutes. Mentally I was clear and trying to stop, but my body wouldn’t respond to my brain. Never doing that again.

My dentist and nurse were very kind and patient the whole time, stopping when I needed a breather. I’m glad I have dental insurance now but wow does the process suck.

#I was hoping the gas would help my anxiety #cuz people have told me it feels like you’re floating #but it was BAD BAD BAD BAD NONONONONONO #hopefully I won’t ever need another root canal #but I do have several cavities to fill next #dentist #dentist problems #root canal #bjurnberg

teeth are so fucking stupid like all that bacteria all that decay and you still haven’t found a way to adapt better. like it’s my fault I wasn’t encouraged to follow dental hygiene growing up now I have to suffer forever I think we should ban teeth. I wish we had ROCKS for teeth

#UGHHHHHH I FUCKING HATE TEETH #like okay whatever I have insurance now so I can fix my problems. Probablt. but im so fucking scared of doctors it’s so ughhhhhhhhh #I especially dislike dentists bc I can’t see what they’re doing in there #guys I’ve cured myself of cysts before why do I need a doctor right haha #complaining about something like this is such a first world problem but I fr only have one fear its doctors #UGHHHHHHHH delaying a dentist visit will only make things worse BUT I FUCKINF HATE DENTISTS SO MUCH

okay the weirdest thing. in middle school my dentist showed me the xrays of my teeth and told me that i was missing one adult tooth (it's just not there) so i will have to get dentist help to make sure there's no gap between my adult teeth when it falls out

except. i'm 23 and it has not been a problem. did. did that tooth just never fall out. do i still have one (1) baby tooth. what.

#every so often i remember this and it fucks me up for a few days #the dentist was like “it may not be a problem bc your other teeth will just fill in the space if they fall out around the same time” #but. i have an even number of teeth. i am not missing any. what #and i remember that xray!! and it very clearly showed a baby tooth with no adult teeth underneath

separating dental insurance from normal medical coverage and making it fucking impossible to navigate is evil, actually

#i don't have a dentist rn because i have switched insurance 3 times in 3 years #and i just got my new insurance in january and i never got a fucking insurance card #anyway this tooth issue from a couple years ago came back in force last week #and so I'm trying to find someone to look at it but most places don't take emergency patients if you haven't been there before #half the dentists in my area are known for telling people they have 30 cavities so i do NOT want to walk in with an actual problem #and there's a dental urgent care but they don't say what insurance they take and my insurance phone tree is not telling me what is fucking #covered #jesus fucking christ #and I don't know if I'm looking at a couple hundred or ten thousand dollars here #i think this tooth is going to have to go eventually but i don't know if it has to go NOW #screaming #maybe i just do not eat any hot or cold food for the next three months???? #op

who needs access to healthcare when you can distract yourself from your problems by going insane about the characters

#this post is brought to you by my mouth ACHING #but i can't afford to see a dentist so. i'm thinking about mcshep #specifically john getting off on rodney hurting him and rodney HATING himself for it #just. the absolute horror that he's hurting john. abusing him. becoming as horrible and terrible as everyone has told him #feeling like a monster #meanwhile john is oblivious and feeling regular amounts of happiness for the first time in his life #disaster gays i love them so fuckimg much #i don't have money to fix my health but at least i'm good at ignoring my problems! #my mouth hurts so much #ignore this #personal rambles #mcshep #john and rodney #kinda stargate

GOOD NEWS EVERYBODY IM BACK I HAVE ANSWERS so we looked at my teeth etc and I’m not gonna die of sepsis bc despite all the shit my toothache caused me there’s no infection. so what was it, Bronwyn? good question!

wisdom teeth

#LMFAO #my wisdom teeth are……… so poorly angled. 100% impact on all four #and the left one is tryna make moves so it’s swelling my gums which is raising my molar #and jacking up my bite while the tooth is sensitive in sensitive gums #¯\_(ツ)_/¯ #so he suggested just. get rid of them. take the wisdom teeth out. all 4 bc of the possible impact from them #and if I didn’t I’d just periodically have this crazy ass pain come and go and come and go and fuck THAT so. removal it is #👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 #I have no idea what that’s gonna cost lmfao so we’ll…. we’ll see #and today basically the pain hasn’t been nearly as severe. the swelling has gone down significantly. so I think the pain/problem is #subsiding for a bit. I hope. lol. so they’re referring me to the dental hospital teehee #and then we did a clean of my teeth bc I have crazy plaque buildup and thus bacteria and thus making the issue worse. apparently. so #which isn’t a surprise. depression and adhd means I don’t brush my teeth as often as I should. and floss is scary #while doing that he seemed to have no problems with any of my fillings so I assume they’re fine atm too #all those side effects bc my wisdom tooth wants to play up…….. attention seeker #also between that molar and the gums where the wisdom tooth is. there’s a pocket. apparently. and stuff is getting stuck in there apparently #a pocket……. head in hands. and obviously that’s difficult to clean so that’s also bothering my gums and thus my tooth. GOD #ooc #anyways that’s the dentist update. tldr; I’m fucking fine it’s just wisdom teeth fucking it all up

Today was a better day.

Besides of my uterus for a moment there pinching me and giving me a quick sharp pain for a second which was weird tbh

I managed to eat breakfast which yay!

Pain is a 1 1/2 today 🥳 I had so much energy still when I came back after 8h work that I was still able to do some indoor cycling for 11 min and I did good bcs I had more aerobic and anaerobic training than light or intense which makes me proud. Plus this is a healthy way to get my heart pumping without having it pumping due to anxiety.

Tomorrow is dentist time after work 😩💔🫣 I’m not excited for that at all but I know it’s needed to keep my teeth healthy. I’m glad I have a lovely Dentist she’s so nice and comforting. Plus she gives me lots of local anaesthetics so I can cope better.

Currently life is nice even if each day is another chronically ill hectic day but it’s a good reminder that it’s always a new day and I can see what I can do and I have several chances in hopes the next day is better than the last day.

You are loved , you matter, you are valid!

Oddly enough I feel more comfy anxietyposting here instead of twitter so uh. I preface this with Yes I’m A Grown Adult but I am irrationally anxious about This :’)

#i'm 26 coming on 27 and not had my wisdom teeth pulled and every year that passes by the thought of it freaks me out #main reason is because they never gave me issues or pain and anytime i saw a dentist they said it's likely i don't need them pulled #but as i get older it's like. is this the year they're going to start giving me problems?? should i have just bit the bullet and got them #out when i was younger despite them not giving me issues?? which in itself is terrifying because #everyone i know who's got the procedure talks about how awful it is and how much pain you're in for weeks afterwards and it's like hhhhhh #i'd rather not go through that much pain if i don't have to yknow? but also *do* i know if i don't have to? what if by the time i find out i #need to get them out it's too late? i've heard the procedure is more risky if you do it at an older age (though dont know how true this is) #like i think about this an irrational amount despite my wisdom teeth not affecting my life at all :') #but yeah...sorry for bein anxious outta the blue here; i don't post here much but it's still in a lot of ways where im most comfy Rambling

hey guys this is your reminder to TAKE CARE OF YOUR MOUTH AND TEETH‼️‼️‼️‼️

your teeth are so incredibly important! no one wants dentures! please remember to brush your teeth twice a day as well as floss, scrape ur tongue, and fluoride!!

if you are brushing ur teeth twice a day, YAY! :D but it’s not enough! flossing is very much needed, cavities can still form if you don’t floss. fluoride helps strengthen ur teeth so they can be big boys and prevent tooth decay and further problems! i cannot stress this enough, TAKE CARE OF THEM‼️‼️‼️

not only does all of this help your teeth to be sturdy and healthy, it most certainly helps with bad breath! just brushing your teeth only helps so much, and most the time it doesn’t work, especially if you haven’t been very good with it. flossing gets all the gunk and plaque off your pearly whites that are makin’ things smell! this is also where scraping your tongue comes in. bacteria lives on your tongue too! no one wants it! so make sure to get a tongue scraper, im sure your dentist has some so don’t be afraid to ask! scraping your tongue can help immensely with bad breath, especially if you floss, brush and fluoride along with it!

REMEMBER‼️‼️

you must do ALL of these if you want to ensure a healthy mouth! you can’t just scrape and brush, or brush and fluoride, etc. all steps are incredibly important! GUYS‼️‼️ CAVITIES AND CROWNS ARE NOT FUN‼️‼️ THEY ARE EXPENSIVE‼️‼️ and to add on top of all that, you feel great afterwards! I’m always happier and feel much cleaner after taking care of my teeth, and you will too! who doesn’t like knowing their breath is fresh and their mouth is healthy?

i know it can be hard, especially when your trying to form the habit. i struggled myself for a long time, only recently really coming down on my teeth hygiene. but it’s so worth it!! just try your best and DON’T take breaks for a night! that is what kills the habit. just imagine how nice and clean your teeth will look without all that gunk in between them!!

if you don’t believe me, my dad is a dentist and runs his own practice. I’ve learned from the very best! he works with patients who have cavities left and right, he’s worked with smokers, etc. if you guys have any questions, go ahead and ask, I’d be happy to get an answer from my dad for you! :D

#I’m going to yell good teeth hygiene into you fools if I have to #guys it’s seriously so worth it #you DO NOT want dental problems in the future #get it while you can! #and please make sure to have regular appointments with a dentist #and make sure to find one that works for you! #some dentists don’t work well with some people and that’s okay #rambles from the ocean #teeth hygiene #dentist #dentistry

i am so strong and capable of handling all the medium-sized problems that have popped up/intensified/now have to be dealt with bc it's not the holidays anymore. however i'd maybe like there to be like ONE less.

#i just. i don't think i need the weird stomach problems AND the weird wheezy breath problem AND [bug problem one] AND [bug problem two] AND #the complicated project at work that i'm scared i'm actively fucking up #and i even have to go to the dentist tomorrow.....

Can somebody please tell me how putting something almost like a mouthguard in my mouth actually helped me sleep better??HUH??

#i ramble #if you haven't know I have had some medical problems that were caused because I can't stop clenching my jaw #and one of them is that it literally cracks my teeth #so I told my dentist about this and they went #oh lets get you a clench plate #??? #I said ok because I was desperate at this point to stop this #they gave me one and told me to wear it when I go to sleep #and I #I slept better???? #WHAT IS THIS WITCHCRAFT #BEST SLEEP I EVER HAD IN YEARS
