Going for a root canal - argh!!!!

Pray for me. I have an appointment this afternoon. Thankfully they were able to move me up from March 18 as they are always booked. I told them I had to be out of town for Spring Break and that if she could take care of me before, to give me a call - which she did, yesterday.

My dentist told me my roots were good and I was too young to have a tooth pulled, so I need to have the root canal.

Arghhh! Every time I think about it, I get butterflies in my stomach.

Yuck. I have had three. Root canals are no fun! My teeth were falling out of my head until I started this regimen:

www.cleanwhiteteeth.com Last two times in.....NO cavities. Can't say that will be forever but I can hope.

I've had two teeth pulled over the past several years, and finally a few months ago, I decided to get bridges.

Well, the first part of the procedure took 4 hours!!!!! I went in at 2 pm, and when I asked how long it would be, the receptionist said "Around 4"....well, I thought she meant 4 o'clock, but she meant 4 hours!

But, in spite of it all, it wasn't really bad at all.....went back a week later for my permanent bridges.

The worst part of the procedure was that I swallowed one of my temporary bridges, lol!!!

I'm assuming you found it? Please do not elaborate, I can't stand the visual.

She went over the Bridge with me as I had studied and was worried about the root canal procedure. I can't recall the name of what they fill the nerve cavity with, but it could cause permanent arthritis, which of course, would be in relation to your personal health.

Anyway, she showed me the Bridge models and went on to explain that she would have to grind the back and front teeth, which are in good condition, and she didn't want to do that.

She then showed me the little pointed rubber things they replace the nerve with. It's not a solution item like I had read. That made me more comfortable with the procedure.
