Dear Extracted Tooth
I miss you. Already. It’s not even been 48 hours, and life was much easier when you were here. I mean, I you ARE still here, sitting in a ramekin dish having bleached you white again, but I really wish you were still in my mouth. Remember when we used to marvel over wonderous food? Remember when I used to give you rum baths? *sigh* those were the days.
Now…there’s just a big hole where you once were. I miss you, oh toothy one.
Much hole-hearted love,
Gappy

Dear Hole In My Mouth
MOTHER OF GOD. What in the hell was that thing you produced this morning? That thing which pretty much made me gag and try not to vomit the very second I woke up??!? EW EW EW EW GROSS GROSS GROSS GROSS.
Still. At least you’re not doing some of the other stuff I googled. ““? Oh lord above. Although, I still think what you did is FAR MORE GROSS than dry socket.
EW. Stoppit.
Not so much yours, though I have no choice,
Jay

Dear Mouth
It’s been 2 days. No brushing. And now, well, you’re a bit, um…”furry”. I’m using the antibacterial mouthwash on you several time a day. But I can’t swish it hard because, well, see previous letter. So you might be fluffy, but at least it’s, um, germ-free fluff.
Please be normal now, ok? I want to eat.
Yours, The Holey One.

Dear Tastebuds
You’re hankering. I know. Soon my lovelies. Soon.
Starving,
Jay

Dear Readers
DON’T get a tooth extracted.
DO go and write letters for Miss Kat.

I hate it when my teeth feel like they are pillows. Not fun at all. I hope it feels better soon. To avoid dry socket, no sucking on ANYTHING. Straws are not your friend.
Yep – thankfully my dentist and Dr Google had me informed on everything before hand. But OMG THIS IS GROSS.
DRY SOCKET?!
*heave*
If you heaved at that, you'd have vomited at this mornings, um, "findings".
*GAG*
oh it is truly horrific isn't it…urgh.
keep up with the antiseptic mouthwash plus salt water immediately after food when you are eating again (helps heal faster)
Much sympathy from one who has had all her wisdom teeth taken out *shudder*
ALL your wisdom teeth out? Holy crap I've only done this once, I have NO PLANS on doing it again.
EVER.
Aghh, this was cringworthy to read. I avoid the dentist like the plague
Wanna hear irony? I LOVE the dentist. Was actually really pissed that he had to pull one out. *gutted*
OMG I hate teeth. Sorry but yes it is totally gross. I'm a teacher and in my opinion, TAs were invented to deal with the teeth that fall out! I'm only half joking here. I'm really really sorry for you. When I was six i fell off my bike and smashed my teeth in the road and had to have the whole front row pulled out, AFTER they had implanted themselves into my gums… OW ow ow.
Fab post as always but eeeuw!
