Dental Cleaning...

You could call that round 2 with the dentist. Today I went back to have my dental cleaning taken care off. Since my full dental cleaning was about 2 1/2 years ago...so I wasn't exactly looking forward to that. I pretty much knew that this was going to be pretty much a blood bath and it was gonna be anything a fun.
The ultrasonic cleaning gets on my nerves, since I really can't stand the sound of it. But as long as they don't work to close to the gums it doesn't bother me that much. But having them work near the gums, that's something I really despise. Working between the gaps of my theeth is not only painful and almost drives me nuts. I do know that the tartar/dental deposit have to come of in order for the occasionally bleading gums to heal. But it's still somthing I really hate. What's even worse is working with the hand instrument in order to get dental deposit of the teeth, that doesn't come off with the ultrasonic device. And finally the dead gum tissue needs to be taken off as well.
After about an hour of being "tortured" by the dental hygenist I was finally done. And I was very relieved that this ordeal was over. To add insult to insury, the dental cleaning isn't payed by the HMO and you have to hand over 120 bucks for that very questionable fun.
