Received the loan for my dental work and am already paying it back and the work hasn’t even begun yet. So last night I ended up having a dream. I dreamt that the dentist handed me 4 parts that made up both my upper and lower dentures/partials/implants… whatever you wanna call it, and then said just put it all in at once… I thought OMG no way! It’s too BIG! I’ll never fit all that in my mouth! So I took it apart and decided to put the bottom partials in which were really a full set. Thing was these were big as well and I said, I’ll just do a bit at a time.
I could see myself trying to get these bottoms in and scared that I would gag. But after a few attempts, Lyn and Dr. Nirav standing there watching me, I got the bottoms in. I didn’t gag, it felt comfortable but…. the bottoms were so big that my lower jaw protruded way out, my bottom lip could have flipped over my nose. I hate dreams like that! But as the dream went on, it started to subside and I was feeling back to normal and with a nice set of bottom teeth. I felt quite happy in my dreams and can only hope that these dreams mean I’ll be fine.
The other issue or thought I’ve been having lately is the day of the impressions. I’m really really scared of this day. I know I was told that I’ll be sedated but sedated to what point? I mean, will I be asleep completely? Or will I just be in la-la loopy land. Because if I’m in the la la state, I’ll know at that point in time what is happening to me and I’m afraid the la-la won’t take affect. Even tho they say you won’t remember a thing the next day, I’ll know what’s happening to me AT THAT MOMENT IN TIME. I hope this is making sense. I just don’t wanna go through THAT moment. 😦 If anyone out there reading this can let me know how you went with impressions under heavy sedation, please let me know if you still were scared and if you freaked out. Did you actually know what was happening at that point in time?
