Tornados and Smooth hands

I just love my dentist. I went for my second cleaning yesterday to make my teeth super clean and pretty. They look so much better and my gums are looking pretty snazzy too... although they are feeling the effects of the scraping today. The best part about the cleaning is the parrafin dip that you get while they attack that pesky plaque. So when I leave, my teeth feel nice and clean and my hands are nice and soft. So nice...

Yesterday, they also took the impressions for my teeth so they can order my Invisalign trays. It went pretty well, and after the X-Rays last week, the impressions were a breeze! My trays will be in a a few weeks, and I have an appointment in March to pick them up and get started. I am so excited to get started. I will finally have straight teeth!

My whitening is in April, and originally I was supposed to have come contouring then, but now with the Invisalign, I am not sure how that is going to work.

I am just so excited to get started. I can not wait to get my first set of trays! Of course, now that my tooth neurosis is being dealt with, my body has substituted a new anxiety dream. And it looks like the tornados have it! The other night I had a dream that I was in a meeting in a tall building when a tornado came through. Everyone got under the table... not sure how much that was going to do considering it was coming right in. I woke up before it finished, but it was no fun. Only a dream though and I certainly don't miss the tooth one. Now if I could just do something about the horror movie ones...

Tornadoes in dreams are often symbolic to major stress as well as an inability to relax -- eek!
