woohoooo
I am done!

I went in the dentist for 930am..... I got home at 3pm!!!! YIKES! I did however, get a root canal (easy!), a post and composite build up and a lovely permanent crown! Thats right!!! No 2nd appt, no waiting, no temp anything... it's ALLLLLLL done!!!!!!! wooohooo

$2750 later, the last trouble tooth is all fixed... the rest of my teeth are good!!! All I want after this (next year) is an implant, but that will be a year from now. Its about $4,100.

I know I made this out that I had horrible teeth... I don't. I had 4 cavities but 2 of them went to town and grew huge really fast. One tooth had to come out and 2 teeth needed fillings and this last tooth needed the most work to save it but in my whole mouth I only have 4 teeth that needed work, 2 small cavities on one of them and one missing tooth now. Its not that bad.... the cost kills me!!!

I am sore as all heck right now, my gums are screaming but the novacain wore off before they did the fitting and I didn't want any more. So I finished the work not numbed, it was not that bad except the string under my gums hurt like heck when they took it out. Advil will handle the major pain and I should be good by tomorrow for the most part.
