Riding to work yesterday, felt a crunch in my mouth, and spat out half
my friggin wisdom tooth!!!

Geowww!

Quoted message said:

Unbelievable, head-splitting pain ensued.
rode to town, tried to phone dentists. any dentists. Quickest
appointment i could get was 4pm. grrrrrr.owwwwww.grrrrr

got a nice young lass on phone and in my pained haze assumed she was to
be the dentist. When i arrived a 6'6" German dude looking way too much
like Laurence Olivier in 'Marathon Man' (or was it boys from Brazil???)
walks in. would he utter those words...
"eeezzzz eett zaaaffee???"
thankfully not, but I'm a woos when it come sto dentists at the best
of times but the size of the friggin needles and mining-grade tools he
was wielding had my HR at an alltime new high (i had forgot i had the
thing on and musta bumped it on by mistake while in the chair?).
Beat my previous by 6bpm.
Very swollen jaw. can only eat mushy food till stitiches fall out

Very important medical experiment you just accidentally performed.

(shhh, don't tell him it was probably electrical interference from the
drill)

So this means you will now find 1:20 and The Wall easy? ;P

See, it's actually the fear factor that gets your HR up on hills, not
the workload. You just need to ride some scarier hills.

Why is it that wisdom teeth have to cause so much pain? I know that
"blinding, can't communicate, don't come near me or I'll vaporise you"
feeling well.

Marathon Man. Classic line.

It's unbelieveably safe, you wouldn't believe how safe it is. (Or
something.)

I have never, ever had anything done to my teeth, so I have no point of
reference with which to empathise. Even so, I still had this horrible
nerve-grating mental image of what I imagine it to be like. Ow, ow, ow.

Home made soup is easy and is t3h r0xx0r. I made some the other day to greet
the colder weather. Here's hoping it all settles down quickly.

Ooowww. I had 2 wisdom teeth pulled when I was in my mid-20s. I can recommend mashed potato washed down with rum and cokes.

That's what I was told when I had my wisdoms out.

I ended up just putting up with the pain of biting into a big healthy
steak instead 🙂

Well the soup I made hade tasty bits of lamb, but they were extra soft from
having been made into soup. Beef works as well, but I personally prefer
lamb.

just had Lentil Soup. yummy!
aint no vego but Dutchy's tip-of-the-day...

When flying order the vegetarian meals as you get served first and they put a bit of effort into em

Unless you happen to be flying luftwaffe, err, Lufthansa; they just dont get it apparently. it arrived with ham sandwiches 😄

There was a comedian on TV, can't remember who, he said that on a tour
of Germany he'd joke that "the one problem I find here is that people
don't eat enough meat." The Germans would invariably react with "I don't
sink so ... no, you are wrong ... ve eat lots of meat here ... don't you
agree Hans?"

don't know about the mashed potato but a large dose of novocaine and
coke does the trick.

Mum made me some chicken and pumpkin soup. The minced chicken bits
were just the right size to fill my newly aquired cavities at the back
of my gums. Ouch.

The cats did enjoy the pumpkin soup. It was especially funny watching
the white long furred cat bury her head in the bowl, to come out with
an orange stain that couldn't be cleaned off for weeks. Just like
when I try to give her worming paste (damn, that time of the quarterly
year again).

This is a double-edged sword. By doing this, you guarantee that you
will never get an upgrade to a higher class. At least with quaintarse
anyway ...

Oooooo, no good, no good. Don't know if you've suffered the same reaction from folks who constantly ask "whats wrong" "are you ok" "why are you so grumpy" "why is your face swollen" blahblahblah. I lost a molar (+ exposed nerve) due to a industrial-strength barley sugar & had to put up with this [censored] until the dentists appointment. The only comeback I had was to constantly mutter "flock orff".

Fark. That sucks. I know your pain only too well unfortunately.

Quoted post said:

Me too, had far too many bad dentists who have caused me unecessary pain and sufferring. Of course I shoulder my share of responsibility, I used to really neglect my teeth and it shows, however I've had work done I now know didn't need to be done and had three teeth extracted that could have been saved.

The trick is finding a good dentist. I lucked in as Suzie's dentist is also a friend of her dad and, co-inicidentally, a mad keen cyclist. No shortage of conversation topics when I go for my (now regular) check ups :-)

He's also damned good at what he does and, by his own admission, much more considerate of patient comfort having had to have work done himself.

As for food, can't remember the name of the dish but it's basically pureed potatoes, fish and stuff. Really yummy and nutritious, straight out of the AIS cook book. Will send you the recipie when I get home if you like.

Hope it all gets better soon.

Pumpkin soup is particularly good stuff. Roasting the pumpkin first and
ensuring adequate amounts of fresh ginger and coriander is essential though.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOWWWW My worst nightmare - teeth crumbling in my mouth. My thoughts are with you FD. I know your pain, having recently dealt with a cavity and bits of tooth breaking away to expose a nerve.

Bugger the soup - just suck on the kids' easter eggs! Hope the pain and swelling disappear very soon.

And my tooth saga goes on. Now I am being referred to a
"periodontist". Surely it will cost TAC less just to put an implant
in straight away instead of having me sent around to 3 different
specialists to all give me an opinion that an implant is the best
option?

You're from the UK -- it's expected of you to have bad teeth <g,d&r>
🙂

(not that I've noticed your teeth)

With the amount of sweets I eat, I wonder how my teeth have lasted
this long.

Quoted message said:

however I've had work
done I now know didn't need to be done and had three teeth extracted
that could have been saved.

As I posted to ARK a couple of days ago:

I didn't visit a dentist for 5 years. Then I decided I better do
something about my wisdom teeth, since a previous dentist said "you'll
need to get 'em out in a few years".

Bad mistake. He said my teeth were good, but then took to them with
something resembling a file.

My teeth were sensetive to everything for about 6 months after.

I went to a different dentist when it came time for the Transport
Accident Commission to pay for the SUV's damage.

And your part of the conversation is "urch. rrrrm. yeshhh. owww."?

I wonder if they understand us, or are just bluffing?

Has he taken bad care of his teeth, or just bad luck? You really have
to be cautious of a fat doctor giving weight advice, so a dentist
having had lots of work is not necessarily a good sign.
