DENTAL REPORT

I got two front teeth pulled on Tuesday. I am dealing with the aftermath pretty well.

I get to take out the new partial tonight. It was left in for two days to help reduce the swelling.

I am less sore. I don't quite pass the "pretzel test" yet but I can eat almost everything as long as I mostly keep it on the right side. The left is mostly plate and the plate pushes a bit much on the raw guys.

I can bite down on bare teeth and it is only a nudge. No pain.

Of course, I am still on two Ibuprofen and two Tylenol four times a day. But that was little help yesterday on the raw gum. Today, much better.

I am not much aware of it in the times that I am not eating. I try the bitedown occasionally. Just to see. Like sticking your tongue into a sore spot. Which it is.

That's it. I am pleased with the progress and predict a rapid recovery. Maybe a week after T-day.
