Went to the dentist today
...and besides some gunky buildup which was scraped off, my teeth are good. No cavities and my wisdom teeth grew in perfectly. Not bad for waiting 5 years.

Bi-yearly checkups are basically pointless....If you brush/floss/gargle you're set
I feel the dentist should be left for more advanced procedures like if you get your tooth knocked out or if you have a cavity
Which reminds me i need to get my teeth cleaned for the free lol

I swear if that bitch jabs me in the gums with that steel hook and says "your gums are bleeding because you don't brush hard enough" I'm going to punch her in the mouth and tell her the same thing.
They been raking me over the coals lately, Wisdom teeth in Dec, 2 crowns in May, and a filling this month.

I went 2 years without a trip to the dentist and ended up needing a root canal. Hmm now that I think about it, it's been about 2 years since I had that root canal. I have dental insurance...I should probably go get a checkup or something.
