slemslempikeManaged to get to the dentist for 8.45 this morning, after a short delay when I didn't work out the difference between the emergency dental people and the community dentist, and just stood rather pathetically in reception, bleating that I didn't have a letter.
I got my teeth filed down (two of them are chipped at the edges without being decayed, and "they rub on my tongue". What actually happens is that when I don't have something in my mouth, I run my tongue along the edges and forget to stop before it gets sore.), and I have to go to Morecambe next month to have an x-ray to check on my wisdom teeth. They didn't start coming through until last year, and two started poking through, and then stopped. The dentist said 25 is the right age to have problems with wisdom teeth, which isn't terribly comforting.
After the filing, the dentist put some kind of gel on my teeth to encourage...something, and told me not to eat or drink for an hour, but not to worry because it tastes nice. Actually, it tastes of banana. So far today I have had banana flavoured green beans, banana flavoured beans on toast and banana flavoured water. I am going home to brush my teeth vigorously before I end up with banana flavoured sick.
