I predict "waow I'm so stoned" posting when she first gets home, still numb, flying on one 5/325 Norco. And then the local wears off.
Stephanie's sister-cow Lou Gagliardi weathered a diabetic foot ulcer and hospitalization with no change to his assholery, but the first time his ignored diabetes caused a permanent loss of vision, he had about a day and a half of posting like a human who'd suddenly realized he was human, mortal, and his body was him. (He got used to the dead spot in his vision and he's back to eating handfuls of nuggies and begging for money for quad-boobed furry commissions.)
You're right, though: Stephanie thinks that she's currently irresistibly attractive. Losing teeth, especially visible ones: she's already said that's for poor people. She doesn't like it.
She does have face masks to fall back on, but that'd be the end of showing off her pube beard.
Well, she can't eat her cake and have it too.
I have a feeling she said they are back teeth-but never mind, because when you are losing four of them, that's vast enough space that all your others shuffle out to stretch their legs, and then you see that horrible tomb stone effect.
She'll also get that old lady mouth when someone doesn't have teeth providing the structure for their face in the cheeks. That makes people look VERY old /crackheady.
Masks won't save her - you get even one back tooth pulled out, you have to deal forever more with a gap that is way more prone to bad breath, if you don't spend fucking ages doing new and annoying and awkward to reach things to clean it. Food can get stuck etc. And we know that she hasnt been up on her dental hygiene.
Losing one tooth by the age of 35 is not terrfifc these days but is factorable and understandable. 4 all at once is awful.
The healing process is gonna be the absolute worst for her. Teeth holes stink, the dissolvable stitching they use does. Her new, aireated mouth will just stink now as a matter of course, meaning masks are permanently gonna be gross to wear.*
She's a picker and she will zone our when they tell her how to look after her mouth afterwards, so, dry socket arc.
Freaking out and returning to the hospital arc, when she basically makes herself another problem out of being in a massive huff that this is all happening, actually.
Pulling a lil mental health will be the result of this all told I reckon.
(-If she was clever she'd do it before hand then she might get it covered or organised on some other dime!)
*actually they must stink rn? Or be kinda painful? She hasn't moaned about the pain that much. Or maybe she is too retarded to know she is already in pain and acting up like that lion from the story.
Then again I watched my dad rot his teeth out of his ehad with no complaint. I am really prone to pain in mine so the idea of letting anything go on for ages with it being like it gets is inanthema.
Then again apparently - this is useful information not just random powerlevelling-
If you are one of the people who goes to the dentist and after they do the injection but you still feel it all, in certain teeth, you might have this extra nerve that runs along length of your jaw.
Dentists seem to get taught that this is rare - but it's like 1 out of ten people have it. That is not very rare. And once they know you have it they give u shot where it is. Just say "I've got the extra nerve"
I happened to see it on an x-ray once and asked what the white line was.
Then all my dentist misery was over. Somehow they never thought to wonder. The psychological damage in adult onset dentist terror is firmly entrenched tho :]]]
