Screwed

it’s official. i’ve just been screwed. literally.

just got back from my dental appointment for a long overdue dental surgery. the dentist had to take out all the old fillings and screw in two titanium micro screws. then, he had to put in new fillings. the micro screws were put in place to hold the new fillings. all in all, the surgery took 1hr 30mins and cost me $230.

now, not only is my tooth aching, so is my wallet. need a job fast.

he also told me i would need another surgery to remove a crooked tooth. there’s only one complication though. that tooth is resting on some nerve fibers. if all goes well, the nerves would be alright. but if the worst were to happen, i would lose all sensations from the lower right jaw.

estimated cost of that surgery? around $150 – $250. heh. i really really need to get a job fast. anyone has any recommendations?
