Today I was scheduled to have my wisdom teeth removed, notice I said teeth. I was scheduled to remove the lower ones. I get to my appointment at around 5pm and get in to the dreaded chair. The doc comes over and starts describing the procedure, and starts by injecting me with the local anesthetic. He then pokes around to see if I am numb, and guess what I am not. He gives me another shot and another, and still I am not numb. By now we are up to 4th shots or 5th if you count the one he gave me in the other side. The doctor starts to worry and telling me about the alternatives if the 5th shot doesn’t work. Surly enough the 5th shot does the trick, but I left the dentist with only one tooth missing rather then teeth.
