Crowned

I have a permanent crown now!

I was totally fine and relaxed until the dentist asked, "you want to be numb?"

Lizard Brain says, "I'm in charge now!  PANIC!"

Monkey Brain tries to explain it to the dentist.

I did make a game attempt to skip the novocaine.  He got the tools on to remove the temp crown and before I could say, "let's go with numb," he had the needles out.  I guess it was obvious it was painful.

The fitting went well, the measurements taken two weeks ago were accurate.

The only discomfort after getting numb were a brief flash when the temp crown was broken free and when they hit the raw tooth with air to dry it off to apply the new crown.

I never wanna do this again!

Good news, I prolly won't have to if I just keep brushing.

Brushing is something I neglected severely for years and years.  I'm born again about it now.

Even my gums have recovered to the point that he said I could change back to normal toothpaste from the special "detoxifier" stuff.
