I had a wisdom tooth go fucky on me. ‘Impacted’ - thing was fucking sideways, and rotted out. A nightmare, couldn’t chew on my right side at all. Was lucky enough to be living in a blue state that offered dental for Poors™ when it happened - they were willing to cover an impacted tooth at the local hospital. They jabbed the world’s biggest needle into my jaw, and yanked it out. Didn’t feel a thing at the time (other than the needle, which was like getting jabbed in the bone), though I spent the next month in agony once the anesthesia wore off.
They wouldn’t let me take it with me after they extracted it, said it was a ‘biohazard’. Wish I’d pocketed it anyway when they weren’t looking.
