Alright mother fuckers. A confession. And a warning. Fix your ways before it's too late. If you're not a lazy disgusting person like I've been--good on ya.
About my last year of alcohol and drug binge, I also included Monsters and large amounts of candy as a staple part of my diet. I also stopped brushing my teeth because why buy toothpaste when I could buy more weed and coke? Seriously. Out of all the things that have come back to bite me in the ass, my current dental issues top the charts as my most shameful (and painful). I now brush my teeth 2 or 3 times daily along with a floss and mouthwash routine, but it's not enough to reverse the damage. And needless to say,
the damage was significant.
Today I got a wisdom tooth extracted. I discovered that I had deep cavity infections in many of my side teeth up top, and I'm very close to losing another tooth on the side of my mouth. The other wisdom tooth is coming out as a fact, but I could only handle so much tugging and stabbing in a single day. In all honesty, I had a really good dentist who made sure I was numbed up very well. He would tug, and if I felt any pain, he'd stop and go back in with the needle to numb some more. But the feeling of having something
slowly pulled out of your skull ranks as one of the most uncomfortable feelings out there.
What you're about to see is disgusting. On top of a broken, infected tooth, you're going to see part of my infected jawbone that came out with the tooth. (It's that white horizontal chunk on the side) Seriously. Dental problems is one of my most embarassing issues right now.
