Claudia’s Dental Saga: Episode 13

Today’s Good: I got to run underneath some more northern lights this morning. They weren’t as prevalent as the last time I saw them on a run, but they were there and they were green and they were calming.

Today’s Bad: That was

THE
MOST
PAINFUL

dental cleaning I have ever had in my entire life. It actually may have been the most painful thing I’ve ever experienced, period. I like to think I have a pretty high pain tolerance, but this evening’s appointment involved thirty minutes of them pressure washing the plaque off my teeth. Because I’m a bad human, I had like millimeters of plaque on/between a lot of my teeth and when the underlying tooth/gum was exposed, it was painfully sensitive.

I was crying, yo. And shaking. And hyperventilating.

I’m not going back unless my fucking teeth start falling out, sorry.
