Hi Cuties,
I was in so much pain over the weekend due to a toothache. I'm been having RCT (root canal treatment) on my 36 (lower back left molar). Well when I was at the Endodonist on Friday 27th February he dislodged the crown behind the 36 (my 37). He glued it back down, but it came off on Monday evening - so I rang dentist on Tuesday as the jagged edge was cutting my tongue. Got into see my dentist on Thursday and he put a temporary filling over it. Great till Friday night and then the throbbing began! We had to attend a funeral in Sydney on Saturday and I went through a Packet of Nurofen (the pain was so bad they did nothing!). Sunday I went to the chemist to get stronger painkillers, but they made me feel sick. I rang the dentist first thing on Monday morning and lucky for me they had a cancellation at 10.45 - I took it. Got in there and then there was the choice of having a 3 unit bridge multi dollars, an Implant huge multi dollars or an extraction (which my dentist actually recommended) - so I now have a gaping hole there, no pain, just healing going on. Waled out of there at 12.35pm!. I had to sleep upright last night so went to sleep in my recliner chair, it was actually very comfortable. I've got to rinse my mouth out with warm salty water for about a week. Then on 27th March I go back for the next Root Canal treatment on the 36!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm an advocate for keeping teeth as you can get so many things go wrong, but I'm so glad this one has gone.
I feel absolutely fabulous today, can't believe the difference. I even got to finish off two more bags yesterday.
I see the dentist every 6 months, my husband hasn't been for years! It's not fair, but then when he goes he usually has an enormous amount of work to be done!
On a brighter note I'm off to the movies today to see The Second Best Exotic Marigold Hotel with my Mum.
Look after yourselves and love to you all. Love Chris
1. Wanted to show you a picture of our gorgeous grand-son Ryke (Dana and Jason's eldest child). This was his first Rugby League game on Sunday morning.
I've been having treatment - not I'm been having.
He's a super handsome young man!
They already are!!!!! Thanks I feel so much better. Love Chris
How was the movie........I can hardly wait to see it. Love the people in it and the first hotel is one of my favorite movies. They really don't make enough just good 'ol movies anymore. Sooo tired of shoot 'em ups and zombies and raunchy sex !!
Chris I feel for you. I think I financed my dentists car maybe his house. I am glad you feel better now. .
Just love the latest rugby player. Sooooo handsome.
Glad you are feeling better though and you have one handsome guy there in the red!! Suzanne
Lovely pic of your very handsome grandson we have a great rugby league team here it's a great passion in our town ( st.helens SAints)
Poor girl. Know all about teeth trouble too. I am like you. Off for a check-up every 6 months. I am keeping mine as long as possible too. One dentist (over the years I have had many) told me it wasn't my fault that I have lousy teeth. Gee, thanks.
When my sister had problems giving birth to her daughter she was told that problems at birth can lead to problems with teeth. Boy! was that correct with me and my niece.
Keep up the check-ups they are worth it.
