Toothache (Part
1) 9/29/12
Toothaches are an
unbearable nuisance. Who in the right mind would want to have a
throbbing pain in the mouth, an inability to eat properly, and not
being able to close their mouth without biting on the tooth making it
even more painful. Though I might be exaggerating JUST a little,
toothaches are a wretched thing.
I've had experiences with
toothaches many times though not from cavities, but from loose teeth
and nerves being exposed to extremes. This was the Xth time that my
tooth started throbbing. It was all that caramel covered apple
flavored lollipop's fault, and partially mine. Like a normal candy
fanatic, I whipped out a special lollipop that I couldn't wait to
eat. It was the most delicious replica of real-life food. The
lollipop tasted just like what it was made after: a caramel apple.
Since apples and I don't go very well together, (allergies) but I
absolutely adore caramel, caramel covered apple lollipops would be
perfect for me. None of the allergies and all of the flavor. As I
stuck the treat into my mouth, I could already feel the caramel
worming it's way into my teeth. Of course I had no idea what would
teeth+caramel equal, that is until I learned the hard way. Having the
caramel apple simulation, I bit down onto the lollipop actually
thinking it was the real deal, instead having my teeth stuck
together. I used my jaw muscle to pull the adhesive fall delicacy
away from my teeth which resulted in having roots of my teeth
partially being pulled a way from my gums (at that time, my back
teeth were loosening up because it was about the time my adult teeth
came into action). The feeling I felt was surprise and agony because
I had no idea that the result of my action would be a very lose tooth
yet it hurt like dickens.
