Mimi, lol yes, the hottie doc gives me away! :) I'm starting to wonder what I could have done to deserve all of this! Wow...I am shocked that this man has not run from me by now...lol
OMG!!!! That is freaking hysterical!!! Thank goodness nothing broke off in my case!!! Did she have to have it removed? I think I would just curl up and die before seeing someone for that!
E.T.: Apparently if you have had a prior jaw injury (i was hit by an airbag) it can happen from opening your mouth to far even just to eat a hot dog or hoagie.... the oral surgeon said I had "joint dysfunction"... certainly not the only way I am dysfunctional!!!
A HOTWHEEL CAR??? LMAO!!! I didn't think those little tires could handle such rough terrain...:)
AnotherLostSoul: oh my goodness... I think I would have ran out of the office if anyone would have ever mentioned how it happened! lol.... the surgeon told me I couldn't chew gum, i had to be on a soft diet and try not to open my mouth until it stopped cracking... did any of that work for you?
Ed: Even though my mother had to go with me to the oral surgeon because it was several hours away and I had to take so much pain medicine that I couldn't drive....the cucumber is still so much worse!! My mother actually believed it happened when I was eating and had a long drawn out discussion with the oral surgeon about the likelihood of this having anything to do with connective tissue diseases that were discussed several months ago which was followed by his rambling ...and I just wanted to jump off the table and say "It was from a blowjob....I just have bad karma!!! Can we LEAVE???" lol...thankfully i didn't...i would have regretted it!
anotherlostsoul: They set me up for a consult at the TMJD clinic, which I understand falls under your dental insurance.... which I don't have. So, this is turning into the $2000 BJ...hope he enjoyed himself. lol...
No more gum chewing has been the hardest for me so far. It is a habit that I have had a hard time breaking! And, of course, as soon as someone tells you to avoid certain foods that is all you want!! But, I have actually done ok on the soft diet. I'm willing to suffer through it to avoid surgery!!
Mirror....oh, girl...I am laughing my panties off....LOL........
But what if i tell you i know exaclty what you are talking about?
See, when i was 20 i suddenly started to have these horrible headaches....i mean, horrible......i would wake up in the middle of the night because of the pain in my jaws....i had the feeling they were not going to open anymore....i arrived to the point i couldn't chew anything and i had to drink with a straw. I could hear popping and cranking when i was openign my mouth ...it was really bad...
So i went to the doc. He couldnt figure out what my problem was. So he referred me to an orthodentist in case the problem was mechanical. Bingo.
The dentist took a mold of the teeth and he figured out that my back ones were still growing and pushing against my jaws. Result: i had to wear for one year a bite, day and night. Imagine what fun having that thing in your mouth at 20 years old!!! But slowly my headache faded away.
Since then i have had occasional sores in my jaws specially if i chewed gums for too long. And...specially after bjs....
Yep.....being me particularly fond of this practice for a while i felt really deprived ......i thought i coudn't do it anymore...i panicked....but with the time since the pain subsided and finally stopped i very happily resumed the sexy habit...
Even though..... after some particularly intense and long sessions i could feel some slight sore....... i was a dedicated woman so no pain could stop me!!!!.....LOL...
Bot: OH DEAR!!! LOL...I might have to move if that happened! How could someone be professional if that happened....I would be laughing so hard there is no way I could provide medical care!
GS: Oh thank goodness! I don't feel like as big of an ass as I did before! I am having a hard time working up the courage to try it again...but given a little time I think I will....I enjoy doing it. :)
Lostsoul: I bought mints, I think the biggest reason for doing it is I like the taste and having fresh breath... it has helped a little but it's just not the same as gum! Lol
Eilan: I told him he owed me a bag of straws.... I'm not quite sure I've ever had so much bad luck with one person!! lol
D6: LOL... well, the damage was already done...I finished the job. He's kind of shy to begin with and he was a little embarrassed.... my sister is getting married next month and we will both be there...when I helped with the seating chart, I made sure we were on opposite sides of the room! Poor guy...
