50 root canals...

I enjoy all my root canals.

That would suck! :Oh crap

That can happen with dental implants? Had no idea. :helpme

pretty rare though, maybe effects 5%... (but that includes diabetics, smokers, 80 year olds with poor health, etc)
so if you don't belong to any of these high risk groups, your odds are pretty good :thumbsup

I've been extremely lucky. Never even had a cavity.

Wish I had your teeth lol :pimp

Still, do yourself a big favor and buy some of that oral cleanser I mentioned. Trust me on this one, it kills infections. The bad stuff can't survive in the presence of oxygen which is why it hurts deep. Using the oral cleanser/rinse brings oxygen down deep and you'll never have a severe toothache ever again. It's not some BS gimmick that just numbs you for 5 minutes, it's an actual solution to a problem before it gets as bad as yours did this time.
If you need severe pain to get things done, then don't use it.

I've had the tooth removed already as the doc said it was best, but I'll look into that stuff. is it good to use even if you have no teeth pain ya know to keep from infections and stuff? Because I'm down for using it.

Thanks for the suggestion. :thumbsup

Day 2 after surgery and I only needed 1 pain med and I really didn't NEED it, but I took it before bed just incase I had any pain as the numbness didn't wear completely off by then.

Normal day for me today.

I have had two, and now scheduled for a 3rd. I would not say "enjoy" is in the volcab in that regard.

I just had a crown done, but they said the pain I am feeling has something to do with the nerve being exposed, or a crack or some shit. So they basically now have to go in through the new crown, do a root canal, and then repair the crown. They were hoping to avoid doing the root canal, but no such luck considering the pain.

Another $1000.00 for the "enjoyment".

:disgust

I've been told multiple times a tooth had to be pulled only to go to a specialist and have the tooth saved. Lots of bad dentists out there. Not trying to salt the wound. Just food for thought next time. :)

Anyway I'm glad you got it taken care of.

lot of people here don't bush teeth ???
