I'm off to the dentists in 10 minutes, for half an hour's root canal work.

Can't wait...

oooooo

Heh Sulli just had a premolar removed too!

[Captain-Sullivan]

No I had not ! Don't say those things, you'd jinx me like this thread cursed me to the hell that is dentistry. *frantically makes every protective cabalistic gestures known to man*
I chipped one of my premolars, and after quick glance from my doc (couldn't get an appointment from the teeth-torturer sooner than next tuesday, and I was told I was lucky.) I was informed that I may not even have to get it devitalised. Maybe. Apparently some small decay spot I couldn't see caved in and carried the affected part of the tooth with it. I was just chewing some gum, ffs !
Fingers crossed real hard, hoping they won't have to kill the tooth.

I love my teeth. I don't want to see one of the flock die so young.
My physician even said to me : "Wow you got very good teeth. You're lucky."

Don't you die on me, Chuck, don't you dare ! (yeah I gave a name to the tiny bugger).

Add to that a nasty angina. One thing ending in -gina I don't like. Decided to fight it mano a mano like a man, no meds for me gringo. Bad move. Fever. Now on antibio.
I'm off from work for the week-end (yes I work even on sundays. Paid double wage, though) , but I can't even play Conan because I tried to get the early access the very day they closed it for british pre-order keys. And I ordered my game in GB.

/end rant.

In one thread you got more information on real me than in years of sparce foruming. Happy ?

[Haviland]

Umm, if angina means the same to you as it does to me, I'd see a doctor. Restricted blood flow to the heart isn't always a good thing.

[Captain-Sullivan]

It's angina tonsilitis, to be precise, so if I don't feck up Mr Heart won't be involved.
And I saw a doc, that why I'm on antibiotics right now.
I feel like shit, though.

Thank you for your concern Hav.

To whomever it may interest.

News from the dental front.
Tooth wasn't pulled out. Tooth didn't have to be devitalised.
The dentist just carved it a bit and filled it with some stuff that once solid looks like the rest of my tooth.
Apparently a small spot of decay I didn't see had weakened the part that gave in and broke away.

Now I just have to wait and see if the pain subsides or not. If not, the dentist hit the nerve and poor lil' tooth will have to be put down.

Twas my first dental treatment ever. Grinded tooth powder smells bad. High-frequency vibrations throughout your skull tends to be uncomfortable.
/crybaby mode.

On the other font :
Fever has subsided yesterday. Fell much better. Antibiotics FTW.

[Haviland]

Dentistry's much better these days than it was in my youth, when the first thing the dentist did was start poking BFO holes in the buggers.

[Captain-Sullivan]

Yeah, my parents used to tell me horror stories about what dentistry was like, when I was a kid.
Oh I brushed my teeth regularily, allright !
Didn't prevent me from having that dental carie mind you, but that may have more to do with the way I brushed them, and with what.
It was between two teeth, so I guess those advices about flossing were true.
