If they don't pay attention to me during pre-op interview, I just tell them that I am the reason they have malpractice insurance and that usually gets their attention!
I have weird reactions to meds...we don't experiment on me. And I am in a clinical trial!  LOL! Hey, it's an autologus vaccine. Pretty safe. So far! |
When I go to the dentist, it takes me about 2 or 3 times as long for the novocaine to kick in. And then, it's only effective about 10 or 15 minutes, if that long.
Last time I went to my
former dentist, he had a hissy fit because he'd given me not only one injection, but the entire freaking syringe and I wasnt numb yet when he expected me to. He said a few choice swear words, threw his little mouth mirror thingie across the room, followed soon after with the drill. Got up, told me to make another appointment and come back some other time.
Needless to say, he is now definately my
former dentist. I got a brand new dentist last month, and she's so cool. She's going to take out all of my high mercury content amalgam fillings. (all of those fillings have cracked the teeth that they reside in, so if they're going to be drilling around in them anyways) Then, the dentist is going to try to fix my front teeth that had the unusually soft enamel on it and see if she can make my smile better.
I hate dentists, but I'm actually excited about this. I'll have new shiny teeth that arent full of one of the most toxic substances (mercury) in the world.
I'm hoping that if I get that amalgam out, that some of my MS symptoms might improve. (I'm suspicious of them, especially when the new dentist said that they're "high mercury content".
