I just broke off about half of a molar -- and accidentally swallowed it.
And from the slight irritation I'm feeling at the site of my gastric band (you may recall I had that surgery), I think the tooth might be stuck there.
So that's Issue One: a sharp, non-digestible object in my digestive tract. Great! All I can do is hope it moves on of its own accord... and doesn't cause any trouble along the way.
Issue Two: I can't afford to go to a dentist!
But obviously, I have to. It's going to require a crown, I'm sure. I'll call in the morning and see if I can get it fixed by students at a dental school at a big discount. Otherwise, we'll have to take out a loan to handle it.
I guess I just wanted to gripe a little. Thanks for listening.
