My tooth is black
What shall I do?!
It hurts me when I eat a shrew
A hole revealed itself to me
A tiny hole,
A cavity
When looking in a mirror-woo
And thinking of a kangaroo
I saw the little holey there
Nestled like a cream eclair.
At first I thought it was a seed
Or perhaps a cunning bead
A bead that sought a dental home
And fed upon the toothpaste foam
Removable with cocktail stick
YES
Cocktail stick would do the trick
But no, Alas, Alack, Aploooo
Oh no! Oh Keith! 'Twill just not do
No bead was there, no seed, no grain
Just a hole of crappy pain
And so, to Denty I must go
Denty being the surgeon-o
Although I haven't got the cash
So I'm not going yet
So there
Also I've found that one of my wisdom teeth is growing at a funny angle and looks set to push into my other teeth so I'll probably have to have it taken out and I am very scared of needles and operations and stuff and I haven't been to Denty for about ten years so by now every tooth probably has to have something done to it oh dear never mind wish me luck end of poem BYE

oh bugger! And dentists are so expensive...
Chris suffers from sweaty cheeks and you have wisdom teeth problems. They don't make young people like they used to.

Maja - I suspect it will cost me more than £100. V Festival tickets are higher on my priority list right now.
Chloe - if we weren't alive I'd say we were real-life zombies. But harmless ones. Who wear shiny beads and have an unconditional love for cheese and crackers.
i'm coming up on 8 years from my last dentist visit. i'm not even afraid of the dentist.. i'm just kinda lazy.
anyway, i wanted to tell you that one of my wisdom teeth is fully sideways (literally 90 degrees off-axis!) and is pushed up against the molar. it's partly exposed, which is how i know this. oh and a dentist confirmed it and said i'd have to get it removed.
i chose to forget this advice. that was 8 years ago. nothing bad has happened yet.
so when they tell you that you MUST REMOVE THE TOOTH, remember that they mostly just want your money. if nothing is going wrong in there, and you keep it clean, there's nothing to worry about.
great poem.
That makes a lot of sense. Thanks for the advice. I'll have to go to the dentist soon anyway because the other tooth, with the hole, is getting all kinds of seeds, entire crisps etc trapped in it... but if I manage to avoid having Mr Wisdom out I will. I like him and I want him to stay :)
