I'm going to sue my dentist. - Page 2

QreepyBORIS · 12-28-2005, 11:54 AM

I like getting my teeth cleaned. Well, no, that's innaccurate: I like having clean teeth.

My dentist is a pretty cool guy. He was a quarterback (don't know if he started or not) for U of M's football team way back when. Some of the techs aren't so cool, but what can you do.

But I'm kind of upset that I got sealed, then began once more to brush my teeth twice a day, then got a cavity on a sealed tooth. Whaaaaaaaat.

LEGO · 12-28-2005, 12:08 PM

I used to brush not so regularly and my parents were all "HOW U GET NO CAVITIES ???" and then I go to the dentist and they are all "YUO HAVE REALLY THICK EMANEL O"

So I guess that's how I don't get cavities. I do the whole brushing/flossing thing now though, because I like white/clean teeth.

JurseyRider734 · 12-28-2005, 12:23 PM

My dad brushes his teeth so hard that apparently he brushed the enamel off.

I don't know if that's true, but that's what he said.

And I was in the same situation as LEGO. Now I don't leave the house if I don't brush my teeth. I'm also obsessive with brushing my tongue because I don't want my breath to smell, and if I think it ever does I always have gum or mints with me.

Skikamukazi · 12-28-2005, 12:57 PM

I like having clean teeth but I'm usually too busy to bruch them twice a day.

JurseyRider734 · 12-28-2005, 12:59 PM

You can't brush them before you go out and before you go to sleep?

Skikamukazi · 12-28-2005, 01:07 PM

I brush them before I go out in the morning ritually. But my problem is that sometimes I don't get home 'till about 3AM. At that point I just hold off until morning.

MalReynolds · 12-28-2005, 03:19 PM

I punched my nurse one time out of reflex. She was new and was poking my gums too hard and I kept asking her to stop, but she kept going, "Wait a second, wait till I get the hook out."

And then she hit the roof of my mouth with it and my hand shot out. I hit her in the gut and she backed up against the computer. The dentist laughed about it. He didn't know that I have A DEATH WISH.

evilbutterfly · 12-28-2005, 04:37 PM

lol @ people who have to brush all the time. I brush once a day, always have, eat sweets a lot, and have never gotten a cavity. All my dentists say I need to do a little bit better job flossing, as if they think I actually floss at all. rofl

But uh, my old dentist in VA was cool, but this new guy sucks ass. He goes too fast and the P-Units don't feel that his cleaning is sufficient, but what bothers me is that he tells me the same damn story with advice EVERY TIME I GO TO HIS OFFICE!! The second time he told it, I even told him that he had already told me and recited part of it, but he told it anyway, and told it again after that.

Also, he doesn't have a little vacuum thing, I have to spit into a cup. Spitting into a cup while I'm leaning back in the dentist chair = messy and makes me feel like a retarded kid (especially with the bib and all). >___<

Tokzic · 12-28-2005, 05:55 PM

This could all be avoided if we just took up filter feeding.

JurseyRider734 · 12-28-2005, 06:26 PM

I never floss >_>

I need to. I've never gotten a cavity, though.

Lightknight924 · 12-28-2005, 07:17 PM

I'm 13 and never had a cavity or been stung by a bee. I spazz out when I see a bee though and I freak out and run frantically. That's why I love winter. No bees.

Yeah, never had a cavity.

IAAW · 12-28-2005, 07:24 PM

I know this is gonna disgust EVERYONE, but...

I really never brushed or flossed. A couple of my teeth are pointy because of this =P

FluorescentArmy · 12-28-2005, 08:35 PM

IAAW, that's just horrible. I learned my lesson about not brushing/flossing. Well we didnt have dental insureance for the longest of time and I never got to go the dentist. Just too expensive without insurance. Well since I was little I didn't care what I looked like and I didn't care about brushing my teeth. Then I got cavities. 4 big ones. 3/4 of those 4 were cavity. They were completely drilled out and they put like 3 oz of metal into each tooth. Then I had 11 pinpoint cavities that have eaten through my semi-pulp part. Those hurt so bad when he drills them out. The big ones didnt hurt because I think that the nerves were decayed. Well I have to go tommorow( the 29) and I'll make a thread about how bad my mouth hurts.

My dentist is OK. Hes like 60 but he knows what he is doing and is obsessed with not causing pain. As if 3 novocain shots doesn't hurt >.<. Then some new girl came in and cut up my gums with that little hook thing. Then she messed up when trying to put in the cavity filler and she had to drill it off my gum and then put another filling in my tooth.

Lightknight924 · 12-28-2005, 08:51 PM

You should of checked your weight right after they put all the metal fillings in your mouth. Ha!

That's why bees sting you. They think you're up to something. I have never been stung by bees and I will walk right past tons of them. Other people freak out and the bees chase them. I calmly walk by like nothing is going on and the bees are like "he's coo~ let him throo~" and I go on about my bidniz.

PS: IAAW, damning Canadians is not racism, silly goose. XD

Lightknight924 · 12-28-2005, 08:56 PM

Yeah i'm not afraid of getting stung though. Wasps and bumble bees make me shudder *Shudders thinking of it* Like on King Kon with the giant bees. UCGH!!
The dumb bumble bees love zig zagging you to chase you around. Wasps jusp flutter and land on you. I think they're so icky. Ugh!

Yes because that is so much better.

lord_carbo · 12-28-2005, 09:16 PM

I hate dentists, but mine is pretty good, I'll admit. No problems so far and it's not really painful as it is annoying, even the "half-cavity" I got.
