Yeah, I had to have my impacted wisdom tooth out
not so much a fear of needles as of dentists. Oh, and it turns out, the penicillin they gave me to take the swelling down, I'm allergic to. That was a fun week...

wisdom teeth also scare me
i only ever got one, which is part of the way out, but the dentist has never touched it because it doesn't hurt. the others never showed up. and they'd better not do, i don't want them messing up my nice straight teeth!!

this probably explains a lot, before one of you lot makes the joke. but i understand from friends that having wisdom teeth out is vile.

It wasn't the most fun experience, no
partially because the first anaesthetic didn't work and I was horrendously ill from the penicillin. Once it was out though, I was all 'oh, what was I making a big fuss for?' - it was agonising for about 1 week every three months for over a year, and I just should have got it sorted out instead of being a big jessie.
