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.
If it's not your up front business teeth, I reckon you can get away with missing a few.
Yeah it was a back one. Apart from a few wisdom ones it's the only one that's been removed.
Partner has hyperdontia, aka Sharkmouth. Genetic and apparently a generation skipper. Losing a bunch of teeth to several violent things turned out cosmetically better?!?!
My wife has that!! She had some removed in her early 20s (jaw was too small) before her wisdom teeth grew in. She got those out about 15 years ago. All up she still has more teeth than me and has had like 6 or 7 removed.
Crazy
If patterns fall your grandkids will be fine and the next lot be very expensive. Apparently his Pop could stop a bar fight by smiling.
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
I have never felt pain as bad as tooth pain. Last time I was lying down on the floor at the dentist in tears waiting to see the dentist. Fucking awful shit.
I can assure you a ruptured ovarian cyst is worse in the instant, but it goes away. As do kidney stones. Dental stuff drags on and on. Much worse than single shot near crits.
