    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

    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.

    Would that be Mersyndol?
