Description
Read the rest of "I'm My Own Mascot!" here: www.kevinbolk.com/comic/mascotβ¦Three days before thanksgiving I started having massive tooth and jaw pain. Went to the doctor and found out it was due to a massive cavity in one of my back molars. The soonest they can get me in for a dentist visit is after the Thanksgiving holiday, so I got to enjoy my family's amazing food through a haze of painkillers and antibiotics. Still, it was pretty darn good.. This will be my first dental appointment in nearly 20 years, so I'm a little freaked out. I'm borderline crazy about brushing, flossing, and taking care of my teeth specifically because I never wanted to go to a dentist. It's one of those fears of mine. X_x
More on that (and the drugs they put me on) in the next few comics. XD

I had a few years where for some reason my teeth would start acting up right before a holiday so that there was no way it could be taken care of till afterwards. I had a filling fall out before Thanksgiving, I ended up needing my first root canal right before Christmas, and there was something that happened right before the fourth of July, all within a three year period.
So to make a short story long, I feel your pain.

Yeah last week I got my wisdom teeth pulled just in time. It doesn't hurt as much as it is irritating now that every time I eat it tears the newly healed tissue. Not as fun as the last few Turkey Days.

Damn, that sucks. I'd hate to have to go through Christmas Day feeling pain with every bite.
Mind you, atleast you got to spend it high without anyone judging you for it. The joys of American attitudes to medication, eh?

Maybe not seeing the dentist in 20 years might have something to do with the cavity...? Just sayin'. xD

Yeah, tooth problems suck. I spent all summer a few years ago in a drug-induced haze from extremely impacted wisdom teeth and horrible dentists. Hope you get better soon

Hahaha poor you man~
We don't celebrate Thanksgiving, but I know definitely what I hate about the Christmas Eve... so much delicious food (cooked by my grandma), cakes and all... I can't eat much. I have to eat just a little bit of everything because I get stuffed pretty easily.....ONLY ON CHRISTMAS EVE. =____= Normally I can eat damn lots and feel nothing. On Christmas Eve... My stomach shrinks. Bastard.

My bf just had all of his wisdom teeth taken out a few weeks ago due to an infection that was growing under one of them.
He was in a lot of pain, I felt really bad for him.
Make sure your other half is there right next to you once you get out of the dentist, there's nothing better than being comforted by your loved one.
I hope you feel better, K-Boo!

Ouch. I'm sorry you have to go through this. Hopefully it will all be over soon. Glad you still got to eat yesterday.

Shame on you, thatβs the price you bear for not having regular checkups.
Ps. I know very little about American culture. Iβm not going to ask about thanksgiving, I know the story about how complete strangers saved your first settlers from death only to be paid back with their own blood later. But is it normal for you not to have regular checkups?
Okay I am going to ask, now that it is up, I canβt understand why you would celebrate an event that should be as painful for you, as the holocaust is for the Germans.

N'ah, just a filling. They're gonna do a more thorough cleaning and check-up just to make sure there are no other problems.

I hope you don't have anymore teeth problems!
