It should be a lot better now. The older I get the more nervous I am at the dentist.

That's ok. I think most of us are, too.:D

Well, don't ever ask me about my dental implant nightmare. Now I'M afraid of the dentist.

And don't eat the half popped pieces of popcorn! That's all I'm going to say on the subject!

Glad you didn't get horrible news, at least; though a root canal is hardly anyone's idea of an enjoyable time.

Well I did survive! :p Although I thought the splitting headache I ended up with would kill me before the night was over. :(

But let me tell you, I didn't realize how much pain I was in until I woke up this morning and it was all gone. I guess it just got worse and worse gradually and I got used to it. But geez what a difference I feel today.

I guess yesterday was just one of those emotional days where you have several stressful things hit you at once....I had some stuff going on already, then had the dental thing, then as I was harping over how crappy of a day I was having, I got depressed over the fact that half my family, kid inluded are in Disney World right nown and I'm stuck here. <le sigh> :(

Now, I just have to go back and have it finished/filled in two weeks...:rolleyes:

So glad you're feeling better! :D

Oh I hear you. I never had any dental work done at all except my wisdom teeth when I was 17. (going back almost 17 years ago) Well earlier this year, a tooth broke in the back of my mouth. I went to the dentist and they said it had to come out. I went to another place and had it pulled 2 days later, they put me under, thank goodness because I'm a wuss and was in soooo much pain. Sooooo then they tell me that I had a cavity in 3 other teeth, 2 pretty small but one big enough that I may need to lose that tooth too. I was sooo upset, how did this happen so quickly?? Never had a cavity until I was 33 years old. Then suddenly I'm losing teeth!!!! That tooth broke in May and I had an emergency (was going on vaca in 2 weeks) root canal and crown. My dentist does them right in the office and the whole procedure was done in 1 day. It was NOTHING!!! I was shocked. NO PAIN at all! Just novacaine, and it took a long time. But when I walked out of the office that day, it was done. Talk about crazy though, I had 7 dental appts in the first 4 months of the year. :( Now I need an implant next year where they took out the other tooth, but first I have to pay off the root canal and crown ($2800). UUUGGGHHH

So Im glad overall it all went well for you!! :)

:( I am so sorry you weren't feeling well. I am just seeing this and glad to read you are feeling better. However, when you were asking for something to make you feel better, this is the first thing I thought of:rolleyes:

(I do not agree with this in any form or fashion and the views represented by the participating party certainly do not reflect the views of me.;))

Now, that has to make you smile :)
