...embedded in my upper jaw.

The dental visit was very quick and nearly painless. The whole thing was done in about 10 minutes, including numbing me up. Would have taken even less time, but it was apparently a slippery little bugger. It was under the gumline and sitting on top of the normal wisdom tooth. If it wasn't preventing the tooth next to it

I could show you bloody gauze if you like. :P

Sorry, maybe next visit. :)

That's pretty minor on the squickage scale. :)

True, but a certain husband, who shall remain nameless, won't even look at the real thing, so I figure I'd better put the disclaimer in there for others who may be of a, shall we say, more delicate constitution.

Looks like the tooth has a horn or spike of its own.

Hmmm... are you part Nietzschean?

Well, I have stared too long into the Abyss.

Wow, a tooth in the shape of FDR! You totally gotta put that on eBay.
