do we have a dentist or dental nurse in the house???

I had something similar to a crown done recently and they had to pull gum well away to get the cover on properly. They cut some of it away but also did something to also help make the gum receed naturally to help fit the permenant one on naturally.

what the never seen or heard of doing that before, i imagine it was to get a good margin around the tooth so the crown fits well, we used to use a piece of string like material to push the gum down, left for a short period of time then removed, never heard of gum buring before, maybe its a new thing hope it isnt too painfull for you

the local is starting to wear off... ahhhh

yeah i knew the process of making the tooth smaller but he said there would be a fake crown, which i have now... i just didnt realise it would make my tooth ultra sensitive

[Pandora]

oooh..i didnt realise that you had it done already?!
Hope its not too bad, did they say you can take pain meds?

[Olive]

it will be sensitive but the temp crown should ensure its only minimal..

Ibuprofen is good for toothache. Hope it is not so painful come tomorrow.

mycindil (not sure of spelling) is the best thing for dental pain. can be bought over the counter at a pharmacy. But my normal reccomendation is nureofen and panadol at the same time to get better and longer pain relief.
