That little baby tooth sure served me well but the root was gone and I got a cavity in it so it was due for the implant I had dreaded my whole life. Truth be told though, it wasn't even a tiny bit as bad as I had dreamed it would be. It was a piece of cake.
I chose the IV sedation so I could relax about it because my anxiety got pretty high from worry about it. The doctor hooked up the blood pressure and pulse and told me the stats were pretty low for being nervous so that was reassuring. It was good to get the IV in though it made me just feel sleepy.
Here is a picture of the beauty. Looks painful but honestly it wasn't bad.
And little did I know I was going to be leaving the office and be toothless for the next 8 weeks! I have a retainer with my tooth in it but cannot eat with it in so I pretty much don't wear it because, lets be honest, I eat all the time. :)
