Made grilled chicken with mash and Brussels for dinner, but also a casserole to simmer away. It smells bloody lovely and I can foresee a second dinner being partaken of ๐
Also I ripped out a molar which has been giving me the shits for a while, rotting away right up the back there. It feels great! I feel strangely fantastic! I can smile without something jabbing me in the cheek! I can eat without accidentally chomping down on an out of place tooth!
Sounds like a great dinner. But wait, do you mean at dentist or DIY?!
DIY. I've known this tooth was a gonner for over 10 years as a result of consulting a periodontist all those years ago. Lately it got a bit loose, so I've been working on this tooth for a month or so, just wiggling it and gently twisting. Today I figured it was probably at the stage where it'd actually come out. Horrid thing it was, glad to be finally rid of it.
I cannot condone a course of action that will lead to a gum infection.
