Some jerkovitch named Detoxing posted about a tooth from hell. I read it, feeling sorry for that poor person.
Last night, as I was eating salad.... SALAD... my own tooth.... crumbled.
No pain, amazingly. I guess the root was dead by then.
This morning I called into work, saying I was going to the University Dental School to get it fixed. They turned me down saying they were not taking new patients until August, but why don't I go down the street to Doctor So-and-so.
I found another "urgent care" dentist who turned me down because they didn't accept my dental plan, why don't I go to Doctor So-and-so. (Same Dr. as the University suggested.)
I go to Doctor So-and-so. They turn me down because I had not originally chosen this Dr. as my primary dentist. ARGH! Meanwhile my crumbled tooth is slowly slicing away my tongue and cheek.
So I call my dentist who is 30 miles away. Can they see me as an emergency? SURE! But it might be a long wait. Well, I expected that, so I go.
Surprisingly, I only waited 1/2 hour before the dentist could see me. I have an extreme gag reflex so I took 2 tries to get the proper x-ray. The whole while I am gagging.
Takes another 1/2 hour for him to see both me and another patient in the room behind me, so at least it wasn't an all day affair.
But still... I feel it is all Detoxing's fault I had to loose part of my tooth in the first place.

I really like my insurance plan.. I was scared I'd have to have huge waits but they scheduled my root canal in a week and my followup two weeks from then.

surprisingly not me. Although that was the part of the story I caught the most. The rest is all kind of a blurr.

For some reason I just never imagined that Amazon would have any sort of gag reflex.

The story after the words 'gag reflex' is a total blur.

Happened to me once too. Ate a sandwich, broke my backtooth (on of the big ones, what are they called? mauls?). Could be repaired within the hour though. We have fantastic healthcare, if I may say so.

2 Week later I was playing some CS, and all of the sudden my front tooth fell on my desk onto the keyboard.
My jacket fell out while I was eating some drop. It scared the hell out of me. The huge gap in front of my mouth with a tiny tooth sitting in the middle of it makes your face turn in to something horrible all of the sudden. Very strange..
Anyway, it was on a sunday ofcourse. So I had to sleep with this jacket in barely hanging on to its little tooth. Resulting in me waking up every ten minutes panicking about me swallowing the jacket, or loosing it in my bed. That monday morning it took about 2 minutes to glue it on again.
Very strange to see your own front tooth between the 'H' and 'J' on your keyboard.

What, do you people all have scurvy or something? How does a tooth shatter when you're eating?

So anyway... my gag reflex...
I can't have anything larger than a fork (with food on it) in my mouth.

Fire away the jibes on my poor men friends.
(for some reason, I don't gag on THAT, though.)

You should have added something like
"You like that, bitch? Huh? You like that?"
