Root Canal Therapy




For the last month I have been to my new best friend, the dentist, 5 times with a 6th time luming this Thursday. My tooth started hurting last month, and the dentist did a root canal, and had me come in about 3 days in one week. SHe performed the root canal without any novacaine. It was so painful! I wasn't looking forward to this monday, 2 weeks after the initial beginning of this root canal process, when the dentist was supposedly going to be putting a cap on my tooth and ending my torment. I walked in the dentist's office with a dull pain that had been nagging me for 3 days.

To make a long story short (so I don't have to relive it), the first root canal wasn't deep enough so over the next few days I will be going in again so she can digg depper... once again without novacaine. I was trembling in horror yesterday when she told me that she has her eye on a cavity that might be starting and would like to fix it...

Seriously, though... This has been a very painful process... please pray that God will heal me and save me from any more pain!
