Oh boy
Well oral surgeon was looking at my X-rays and discussing my situation.
Because the crack in my tooth was deeper than was expected also noted by Dentist there is a pretty good chance that a root canal won’t fix the problem. He went into great detail that I can’t figure out how to explain it to you all . So when I asked him directly what I should do. He said you have a 1000.00 crown that was hopefully going to take care of it but it hasn’t. So if I added the root canal that’s another 1400 invested and if it didn’t work I’d need to have the tooth extracted so weighting my options and his opinion I’m not going forward with the root canal. He gave me a script for antibiotics incase I get an abscess. I need to follow up with my dentist as he does implants which honestly I don’t think I could ever afford. But I’ll see him about it.
So I still have pain ( oh joy) if I lose the tooth it will really effect my ability to chew as I also am missing a tooth on the other side.
So I’m really sad that I’m still in pain and wondering if I should just go ahead with extraction.
The only positive part of any of this is that the tooth is in the back so it wouldn’t show. *** small blessing***
I went and got my hair cut I just needed a pick me up. I had 6-8 inches chopped off. Loads of layers and my curls and waves are gorgeous again.
Hope everyone is having a pleasant day.
