Hi all, I'm going to be first! Had to go to dentist yesterday. Had a tooth ache and apparently a huge hole (mind you I always take care of my teeth, had a lot of orthodontic work etc when a kid and two dental nurses as sisters, but I think all that work made me resolve to avoid dentists if at all possible so haven't been in ohh about 9yrs). She said it wasn't my fault, I just have VERY deep fissures and hence food is difficult to remove from them at times and they prob started from the braces I had as a teenager. Anyway, a saw jaw last night and today. What is it that they think you have a flip top head or something "open a little wider please" My mouth was already as open as it goes! Much better today tho and hopefully I JUST avoided root canal therapy (will know in two weeks as x-ray couldn't be done as DH and I DTD w/o anything and there is a TINY possibility. I SOOO want to be, but am scared too of how DH would react and if I could manage three under 3! *L*
