Just use it, or it will stay in your inventory after the game ends

That's what 99% of use items end up anyway!

Oh yeah, it was the wisdom teeth. Jeez, how long are they making you wait before they take it out? Oo

[Slightly Wonky Robob]

It'll be about 5 weeks total D:

There are doctors in Guernsey?

[TheDR]

I think he meant 0.2 doctors.

Self learned but still...

Yeah that sounds more realistic.

[Slightly Wonky Robob]

There is generally a shortage of doctors and dentists over here.

If you move here, I don't know how you actually get a dentist - Most will turn you away if you're not already registered with them.

My dentist couldn't remove my wisdom tooth, so I've been referred to a different dentist - Ironically a dentist I originally contacted and they turned me away.

[Chyros]

Dentists turn you away?! Why on earth would they do that?

[General]

Not experienced enough to perform the operation probably. How the fuck they gain the experience at first place?

Because they have too many clients?

The population on the island is tiny!

[Slightly Wonky Robob]

Not sure how accurate this is, but there are apparently 46 dentists on the island for 60000~ people.

There are also only 3 people who do oral surgery, which probably explains why I had to be referred to a different dentist. The one I'm seeing is also retiring this year.

I will do oral in a minute

Hmm, it doesn't sound like a lot, but I looked it up and in my province there's 1009 dentists for about 1.4 million people, so the ratio is even lower here Oo .

If you ran out of antibiotics and you're feeling pain that means whatever microorganism growing in your mouth is fucking powerful

I guess younger dentists that have practices that, having scaled up, are more efficient.
