Must be why I keep saying elfing autocorrect when it gets something wrong.
I think it is great. Now I can make all kinds of spelling errors and don't have to take the blame. It's that %#$&*%$% auto correct that is screwing up.Must be why I keep saying elfing autocorrect when it gets something wrong.
I'm sorry you're in pain and hope the tooth is fixed soonI broke a tooth on Saturday. I thought it was a goner, but the dentist on Monday said it might be saveable. She removed the broken piece with dire warnings to baby it until I could see the endodontist on Thursday (today).
I saw Dr. Andrew and he said I was within 1-2 mm of losing the molar, but he was pretty sure he could crown it. Lots of below the gums prep work and a temporary crown was added.
The freezing is long gone. My gums are throbbing. The four antibiotics I had to take (because of the hip implant) have upset my belly. It’s going to be a long night.
On the plus side, the Jays won a must-win game, and our pitcher scored his first ever 200 inning season.

Thank you. I’m sporting a temporary crown because he had to do a lot of digging below the gums and he needs the swelling to go down before the permanent crown goes on.I'm sorry you're in pain and hope the tooth is fixed soon
Sorry to hear about your tooth. Been there many times. And yes, you do get to the point where you just say, yank it out. Done that, too.I’m just wondering at what point I stop spending literally thousands of dollars on a very back molar, and just say “To heck with it, yank it”?
If its towards the back of your mouth yank it. I never felt better afterwards.Sorry to hear about your tooth. Been there many times. And yes, you do get to the point where you just say, yank it out. Done that, too.
I had two back molars give out in less than six months. One previously had a crown and it got an abscess under it a good two years after it was crowned, it all had to be removed, I opted not to replace it with anything because it was not visible from the outside. It was actually less than six months later when I bit into a granola bar and heard a crack connected with pain. I went to the dentist and found that the molar had completely split in half front to back. And had to be pulled, it came out in two big sections. I apparently bit into something harder then my tooth and it worked like an axe splitting wood. Anyway I had them do the magic they do and do whatever they do to accept an implant. Then I heard what it cost for one of those and decided that, for now I could survive without a tooth there. It appears that since the second one was on the exact opposite side of my lower jaw so also a no show and based on the fact that I have not lost any weight in the six years since that it hasn't even interfered with eating.Thank you.

First time I did that the ride stopped in front of the volcano. I maxxed it out and switched seats with my daughter. Maxxed out that one too. We were stopped for a while. When we got off and they handed us our pins my son wanted me to max out HIS gun. Thankfully I had learned a thing or two during the stoppage and was able to do it again.FB memory:

I have six or seven other crowns already. I’m Queen Freaking Elizabeth. (Except for the dead part.)So, you’re only temporary royalty, until you get your permanent crown….

SEVEN??? What the heck are your teeth made of? Marshmallows? Other than the Wisdom Teeth that are in many ways not more that an right of passage I have had two molars give out one was 30 years ago when I bit into a quarter pounder containing a brass screw at MickeyD's and cracked one molar that was repaired with some type of resin and black light (lasted around 20 years) when it was replaced by a crown then later had an abscess develop under it and the twin on the other side of my mouth because of something hard in a granola bar that brought in all the Dentists in the office that had to come in to look at because no one ever saw anything like it before especially on a very health tooth.I have six or seven other crowns already.

I contacted the Quaker Oats people who seem fairly unimpressed, but sent me five free coupons to buy more of those evil things if I wanted and $100.00 to help cover the $400.00 dental bill. All the while denying that anything in that product would have caused that. Besides that I have two fillings in equally twin teeth while I was in the Service. The common opinion of three different Dentist is that I was used as a practice human for new Dentists. And one more later on due to that filling rubbing against the tooth in back of it. However, in their defense both of the fillings are still there 53 years later with no further problems.
Interesting thought... those things used to be called caps. People would get their decaying teeth capped. Now you have to get them crowned. Why? Because as head gear, Crowns usually cost more than Caps. Psychological warfare and we are the people that lose.So, you’re only temporary royalty, until you get your permanent crown….
I got lucky as did my children. I have had very few natural tooth issues comparatively. My father had all his pulled out when he was 40 years old. My mother still had most of the shells that used to be her teeth before they got filled with whatever the gunk is that they do fillings with. She did not have even one tooth that wasn't stuffed full. But the outside of them looked great until she died at 87 years old. Neither one of my daughters have ever had a cavity and they are both scaring the hell out of 50 years old.In defense of Jennifer's teeth, my whole family inherited lousey teeth.
My mother was 17 when she got married, and I was born exactly 9 months later. 11 months later, she had my brother. She had very poor pre-natal nutrition during both of her teenaged pregnancies.In defense of Jennifer's teeth, my whole family inherited lousey teeth.
