I just got back from my dentist.
Last August, i lost my front tooth
while surfing Pundaquit. The rail of my board hit my mouth, fracturing
some bone in my gums and causing my front tooth to fall off and
sink to the bottom of the ocean. hehe. it really was a freak
accident..didnt hurt much. I went through shock at first but hey, its
another great story to tell the grandkids, right?
ANYWAY, earlier today my dentist was explaining what procedures i was
going to go through in getting my brand new tooth. My eyes widened and
i gave a big smile when somewhere amongst those medical jargons i
recognized two words: FIBERCLOTH and RESIN. I couldn't stop myself and excitedly
told her, "hey that's what surfers use to repair dings!" (holes or
damaged parts of a surfboard) My dentist said, "i know..."
and smiled.
So there..hehe. what a coincidence.
hey kim, i guess Jong and Lui could've really fixed my tooth afterall, huh? hahahaha.

BTW my dentist wants me to wear a mouthguard while surfing, is that safe?
