My jaw is really bothering me today.
Had to get the fillings yesterday and, as expected, I needed about 10 shots of their numbing stuff (dentist told me it's no longer novicane but some other stuff) in order to get both top and bottom done, and now I can't open my jaw enough to eat much (I've got the BEST mom -- made me spaghetti last night -- both a comfort food, something easy to fit into a mouth that won't open much, and easy to chew. That was lunch today too). It's not really that I have a problem, I'm just super sore from the shots and fillings, and my teeth are still sensitive.
I'd ask for some cheese to go with my whine, but can't get my jaw open enough to eat it.

Hope you feel better soon, when I go to the dentists I'm always sore from the shots and from them pulling my mouth all over the place
