7th April 2022
Well today was not so adventurous as yesterday, rather it was more traumatic because I had a dental appointment for a deep root procedure.
I’ve had a scale and polish before but this promised to hurt a lot more.
I was there on time, even though it was an early appointment. I was led to a side room and sat on the big chair. The hygienist was friendly, and chatted almost non-stop throughout the operation. The chair was tilted back until my trousers receded down my legs and any loose change i had moved dangerously close to falling out of my pocket.
Then the action started, a combination of ultra sonics and high pressure water attacked the plaque, disintegrating it immediately. I was only given treatment on one side of my mouth with another appointment in a couple of weeks.
The experience lasted an hour, and as I left the place I could feel the cold wind rushing through the gaps of my teeth.
