Dentist
Posted by spunky | Filed under Uncategorized
I know I used to love going to the dentist when I was in Primary School. The dental nurse was so knowledgeable, I clung on to every word she said. Brush my teeth regularly, floss my teeth regularly.. maybe I didn’t cling on to the words when she said to avoid too much sugary stuff.
C’mon, I was a kid.
Fast forward to now, I have not been fantastic at going to the dentist. I am writing this at the wee hours of the morning, to sort of give me a push to book my next appointment. I was almost a month ago that I went back to my dentist, after almost FIVE years of not seeing her.
Note to everyone: See your dentist once every SIX MONTHS. Don’t just rock up and wave, like, really book an appointment!
I was meant to go back to her a week after our last appointment. It took her a while to really clean out my teeth and boy did she have to do a lot of work. She also had to put up with my bleeding gums. The job could not be fully completed as I think she wanted to give my gums a break. Know this, that she did a fantastic job and my teeth feel absolutely faaaaab.
I also stopped the nicotine habit for two months prior to seeing her. Which means now my teeth are REALLY clean, I don’t have to worry about the stains on the insides of my lower teeth. I know, I know.. nobody can see those stains, right? But she can, and I swear the teeth even feel different now that I don’t smoke.
Another awesome thing about my dentist. She has a collection of toys in the room ( her junior clientele is growing)
It got the kid in me smiling 
Piglet with BRACES! How cute!
Last but not least…
I call this.. yoga giraffe.
May the enamel be with you.
