Today, I went to the dentist to get a baby tooth which had decayed removed. After almost an hour, I came out with a numb mouth and a missing tooth for life. It was not a baby tooth. FML

Today, I went to the dentist. I had to get a tooth removed. In the middle of the procedure, the power went out. I had to sit there for an hour to wait for it to come back on. The anesthetic wore off before he started working on me again. FML

No pain, no gain

Today, I went to the dentist to get a cavity filled. The numbing medication didn't work, so I felt everything. I was in so much pain that I accidentally bit down on the dentist's finger, causing him to yell in agony. Now, I have to find a new dentist. FML

Oops

By Toothy. - 25/07/2009 04:21 - Australia

Today, I went to the dentist to have two cavities filled. I hate going to the dentist. After he'd started drilling, I heard a "clunk" noise followed by an "Oops." My dentist had cut my tooth in half. Now I have to get surgery to have the tooth extracted. FML

Today, I went to the dentist after 24 hours of severe tooth pain. They did an emergency root canal. After the anesthesia wore off, within minutes, the pain returned only worse than before. Called the dentist, I had to return, only to find they had done the root canal on the wrong tooth. FML

Bruxism

Today, after waking up from a bad migraine which caused my teeth to clench, I found out that I broke a molar. A dentist told me it split down to the bone, so I need root canal and an extended crown. Then they told me the tooth below had also broke and has to be pulled. FML

Hangry time

Today, I went to the dentist to have a tooth pulled. The day before, I was too anxious to eat anything, so I went in with an empty stomach. There were complications during the extraction and now I'm not allowed to eat for the next 24 hours. FML

Uncomfortably numb

By someone - 02/09/2009 11:00 - Denmark

Today, I went to the dentist to get a hole in my tooth filled. After the dentist had injected the anesthetic into my gums, she realized that none of the electrical equipment was working. She sent me home. My entire right side of my face is completely numb and swollen for no reason. FML

57, Britain isn't a 'country'. You've just proved how little intelligence you have by saying that. We're a nation, not a single country. If we were one big country, we wouldn't have seperate places called 'Scotland', 'England', 'Wales'.

FIrespite nice job being a tool trying to point something out that you are wrong about, a country is a nation. You still lost all of the wars against the United States, pansies.

Um. Have you seen the size of Britain compared to the US? &, as for me being a 'tool', you're the biggest one of all. At least I didn't start giving it laldy about how shit another continent was, like the fair majority of the Americans did. & before you start on about how FortuneFaded started it, I don't blame them. Just under half the comments on here are about how unhygenic Britain is, & unless you've actually BEEN to Britain, you have no right to judge. I've never been to America, heard lots of rumours about how overweight the people there are, yet I'm not going around screaming it from the rooftops, purely because of that little word ; a RUMOUR. Which is what all this crap about Britain having bad hygiene is.
