I'm not one of those people who makes the most of isolation. But I finally found the time to remove the tooth! Previously, there was school on weekdays, and on weekends I didn’t want to sit at home with a swollen cheek. And then no one saw me, and FOMO did not overtake me. This realization doesn’t even hurt that much)
Take that, FOMO !
