Dentist

[Trouvere]

I have an appointment with the dreaded dentist.Pray for me.I lost a filling chewing gum over the weekend last weekend and have had a toothache for a week.Today is the dreaded day.I don't want to be laid up all night with a heating pad and drugs.Last night I took IBU 800's and slept on the couch with a heating pad over my face.I hate toothache.I also hate extractions.I thought yesterday of that revival Brother Stoneking preached where the Lord filled peoples teeth.No not with Gold.It was the real thing...enamel.I need that really bad right now.

I will pray. I think I'm going to have to have a root canal within the next few months. Pray for me too!!

What do you mean you are falling apart?

One tooth at a time.The week before my back right molar lost its filling and half the tooth as well.I am falling apart one tooth at a time.

I will pray for you.

I also hate going to the dentist. After my last experience, I would rather do anything than go to a dentist. They were supposed to be pulling a tooth... the tooth broke off mid-extraction-- and the feeling came back. It was too late then to give me anything else-- so they had to finish removing the tooth-- and I felt everything. If I never have to go back to a dentist again, it would be perfectly fine with me.

So much for my courage about that root canal.

You've got my prayers, too. I know what you're talking about, my friend!!

I had to go to the dentist last week because I had a filling that was leaking and hurting. He refilled that. That wasn't too bad while he was doing it. But the next 3 days I was hurting because while I was numb, I sneezed and bit my tongue - HARD!!!

Then after I got that healed up, I had to go back in because he found a tooth that I'd broken off half of. It's the anchor tooth for my partial, so I have to have it! So he's putting a crown on it. I spent 3 hours in the chair on Tuesday getting the temporary crown put on and then I'll go back in two weeks for the permanent one. Trust me, Tuesday was NOT fun!!

So I'll pray for you (and all the others who've posted here). You pray for me, ok? Thanks!!

I have dentalphobia. My teeth will rot out of my head before I see one again.
