I am going to the dentist today. This is a visit a long time coming. I have tried in vain to have my teeth fixed for over 7 years. Yep, 7. I have had two broken teeth for over 4 years. Luckily as bad as it sounds I have strong teeth,so this hasn't been to painful, just distracting. The thing I am most happy about...OK more like ecstatic about is that I will finally be getting this infection out of my bloodstream.
I'm nervous about the procedure. I am having the last molar in all four corners removed, as well as half of a wisdom tooth that was not taken out all the way 10 years ago. I chose to have them removed as opposed to root canals, to lessen the amount of root canals I have to have. I needed 7 root canals. Yikes! 1 for each pregnancy. LOL After much research on RC I wanted to get as few as possible.
They wanted to put me under IV sedation, but after much discussion they have decided to allow me to do it with a local. Please pray that all goes well and that it is painless and quick, and that recovery is quick as well.
Blessings

Praying for your strength and an easy surgery. I know how you feel. Hate the dentist and too many teeth problems! Thankful for strong teeth and gums!

sending prayers for the dentist visit
I'm late here, but I will be praying - I hope you are recovering well and that the dentist was able to do everything he needed to. (((Audrey)))
I had my wisdom teeth removed when I was 16, which I didn't need, because I have plenty of room for them. :-| I have two root canals, both on the bottom right side. I have a broken tooth that no one seems to notice, but I do and it drives me nuts. :-\ My teeth aren't very strong, however. I have started taking liquid calcium suppliments, Cod Liver Oil, and eating more phosphorus and butter. This should not only solve the problems, but hopefully re-mineralize a few cavities for me. ;-)
I rarely go to the dentist. I'm going to purchase a book soon on "home dentistry." Why not? ;-)
Hope you are resting, healing and feeling well.
I am COMPLETELY EXHAUSTED but still praying for you!
