I never understood why they got rid of the spit tank at the dentist. It wasn’t as if they didn’t clean it, or something. Now they just have that damned gum-sucking thing.

Anyway, three days of rinsing the food particles out of the healing tooth socket has just become tedious. I have to keep doing it, because I don’t want to have my gum grow around some piece of old cabbage that then festers and turns into a huge pus filled gumboil that has to be lanced and the rot cut out, leaving me looking like david lee roth.
