Toothday

Something not to chew on. Or with.

To dentists, teeth have numbers. They start on the top right, so your wisdom tooth there is #1. The numbers continue around to #16: your left wisdom tooth, then down to #17 below, and around to #32, your right bottom wisdom tooth.

I'm losing #2 today at 1pm. It feels fine, because it is dead: had a root canal a couple weeks ago. Turns out it's kinda rotted, though, and will get worse. The rot is too low for a crown, so it has to go. The plan is to go for an implant after the wound heals. Meanwhile, a gap.
