Crazy tooth pain tuesday night, saw my dentist yesterday, tooth extracted (2nd one in 2 months but it had to go), today is pretty much pain free with like no soreness in my gums or jaw. I'm glad, but also odd.
yikes! Not ideal. I had a mate describe a root canal as the worst pain he's ever experienced. Takes his dental hygiene VERY seriously now.
This was going to be either a root canal (got quoted 3k for it) or a pull. I opted for the pull as it's instant and about 1/10 of the price.
Interestingly enough, I brush twice a day, floss daily, avoid sugary shit etc. Sometimes it's just genetic unfortunately. I inherited my dad's crappy teeth instead of my mum's.
damn! So do you have to get a replacement? Or can you work with the teeth you have?
Plenty of teeth left still :) One day I'll to SE Asia and do a full rebuild. The one that was pulled a few months back was a wisdom, so no real loss there
