I have a back molar that already had a root canal and crown if I recall correctly. Teeth are confusing to me, it’s hard for me to count them with my tongue and tell which is which let alone have to try and remember which tooth got what done and what not – but this I know for sure, the crown and part of the tooth broke off leaving a jagged edge as sharp as glass. To make it even worse, the molar stands alone, without any other teeth-buddies for support (awww, poor molar is just like me :( )and because of this has ‘shifted’ it’s position. It is positioned now like a poised dagger, and this jagged dagger is constantly stabbing my tongue when I eat or talk. My job requires I spend a LOT of time talking on the telephone, and after a long day of talking on the phone the back of my tongue feels like it’s been through a cuisine-art. Not a ‘tooth-ache’ exactly, but painful none the less and getting worse with time. Lately it’s been almost unbearable.

When this began I called the Dental Clinic and they advised me that of all my teeth this one is the most expensive to repair. It being a stand alone molar such as it is I’m not so sure it’s that important, but I think the theory was that it would be a foundation so to speak for a bridge at some point.

I am so sick of dental woes – but this is now a high priority, the pain, iritation and contant distraction from this tooth is just driving me crazy lately. In plain and simple English: it hurts! Wahhhhh…....

So let’s see if I can get this one out of the way. I pray that God helps me; I’ve proved to myself that I can accomplish goals quickly when I want to – I can’t let this overwhelm me.

Here’s to getting some relief – thanks to the support I get here I’ve been able to accomplish things that I’ve not been able to accomplish in years, so you can imagine what a mess things are; this, much like my car goal, has been a thorn in my side for some time – obviously sitting in a new car is a little easier than sitting in a Dentist’s chair but none the less I’ve got to do it – the reward will be no more constant pain I mean dang if that don’t motivate me I’ve got bigger issues.
