exposed nerves and need two crowns! :


I just said bad teeth; you narrowed it down to cavities =P

Root canals, exposed nerves, and crowns seem like enough trauma to me.
(Though I could beat that with multiple cavities, several crowns and a
root canal ... and GL could beat us both with no trouble!)

Get yourself to your GP for some antibiotics asap.

DH had an abscess start under a tooth the weekend before last and his
Dr gave him a prescription. His visit to TED (The Evil Dentist) was on
Monday and the abscess was gone (much to DH's relief, he's phobic
about dentists too).


Pain relieving purrs are being directed in an easterly direction as I

I believe that about genetics. I was 14 when I had my first cavity, and 18
when I lost my first wisdom tooth. When he was in my mid-30's, my late
husband lost his first wisdom tooth. He had had one cavity by that time.
My daughter is meticulous about brushing and flossing, and has had lots of
cavities and a root canal. My son brushes if he happens to think of it, and
doesn't even own any floss, and he's had one cavity. He's 41. Obviously,
he took after his Dad and my daughter took after me.

Too true. The need for root canals and the exposed nerves I did to myself
by brushing my teeth wrong (sideways instead of up and down from root to
crown) with a *hard* toothbrush. I actually have worn grooves in my teeth
at the gum line.

So sorry to hear it, Helen. May the pain quickly subside and stay away
until your mouth mechanic can take care of the underlying problem.

Oh, I've had my fair share of dental problems. Last year, I had not one,
not two, but *three* root canals. That's why I was so surprised when the
dentist told me she couldn't find anything to do to my mouth this year. )
