Dilemma

They say old injuries never really go away.

Maybe they're right. My knees hurt something fierce. I popped it about five times today. The crappy weather doesn't help any. If anything, it just makes it that much worse. It's deliriously hot in in the morns and afternoons then it rains cats in the evenings. Pure hell.

But never mind that.

Teeth. Wisdom Teeth. When I was 14, I had braces done. They cost RM3500. I yanked four teeth and endured two years of ulcers, pain and food restrictions. I thought it was worth it. I finally had straight teeth.

Now, at age 19, my teeth have become crooked again. Why? Because of the 3rd molars sprouting at every corner. I kid you not, I have grown all four wisdom teeth. All four. They're not impacting my 2nd molars. Oh no, they're just forcing all the other teeth to shimmy over to let them grow.

Not only does it hurt like a bitch, it's also making my teeth crooked.

I can get them yanked. But my dentist says it's not necessary. A retainer would keep my teeth straight but then again.... it would restrict the growth of the wisdom teeth. Which when restricted, hurts like a bitch.

Dilemma?
