I went to the dentist today on a routine root canal, and ended up getting my molar yanked out of my mouth like yesterday's abortion. The Dentist took one look at my crappy tooth, and said, "That has to go." I was a little torqued, because the pulp was in WAY better shape than the last two root canals. But most of it had broken off below the gumline, and a root canal wouldn't have held, the doc said. It was mostly roots anyway.
But the pain is topical. It's wierd, really. I haven't felt that much pain from that tooth...ever. The dentist can't figure it out. I was even on the verge of abscessing last week, and all I got out of it was a sore lymph node, on the outside of my mouth. the inside just feels like its been moved around a little.
Go figure.
