Teeth

I went to the dentist yesterday. Horrible experience. I'm pretty sure my dentist is just in it for the money. "Prevention" is such a big focus that I'm pretty sure he creates problems where there are none.

Case in point: I have pain now where I didn't previously, and, to boot, I may need a root canal! A root canal wasn't even part of the picture in the consultation. He did a filling, dug a little too deep, damaged a nerve, and now he's talking about having to do a root canal.

The worst of it is the pain. For the moment I can only take in lukewarm food or drink. Anything hot or cold goes right to the nerve of my tooth.
