Now if I run my tongue across my tooth I can feel very jagged edges.  Almost feels like I was eating popcorn and part of it got stuck between my teeth.  It broke\/got chipped \/whatever from pizza I think, it wasn&#8217;t hard bread or anything, at first I thought a part of the read got stuck but after a bit I concluded that I lost a filling, after checking the mirror at home and from talking with Katty on the car ride home we came to the conclusion that I probably am missing part of my filling since luckily there has been no pain.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m not sure if I expressed to Katty exactly how afraid I am of this, I told her but  don&#8217;t think she realizes how shaken I am to my core.  I have a death grip on the chair during cleanings let alone when they actually have to drill.  Images of them having to redrill the tooth further to get a new and better fitting filling makes me break into a cold, cold sweat.  Worse still when I was examining myself in the mirror the trouble is on a tooth where it is more filling then tooth, so now I am worried that they might just have to yank the whole thing or do other weird mouth stuff.  I use the bite blocks for normal drilling, at least this tooth is closer to the front.<\/p>\n<p>Finally the tooth, or the newly exposed filling metal is leaving a pretty weird taste in my mouth, combined with being sick it is pretty gross.  I can only hope that I am not experiencing mercury poisoning but instead getting some sort of super power.  If my power is having gross lips when waking up and messed up dreams than checkmark!<\/p>\n<p>I have an appointment for the end of the month, I guess I will call tomorrow to see if I should come in sooner.  I am worried that the jagged hooks left behind will catch on food and yank the whole filling out as well as my happiness<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Well my filling is really broken but a part of it broke off.
