Hey! I'm going through some teeth stuff as well and found this post. HOw are you doing? Did anything ever develop with what you posted? This community seems dead. :(
Howdy! It's been a while since I posted this post...hm.
Well, I'm going all right. About two weeks ago, I had to get a tooth pulled because I felt like smashing it out with a brick. (When the pain gets THAT bad, just getting it pulled is best.) Even generic Vicoden didn't touch the pain. That's how bad it was.
I'm feeling better, now, but I have about four teeth that are pretty much just black...stumps, barely showing over the gumline. They don't hurt though, so... I'm still putting things off. To make it worse, I'm off work collecting worker's comp for severe tendinitis. Boo.
You say you're going through teeth stuff, too. What's going on with you?
I did a search for 'teeth' and this community was the only one that had been updated recently. :(
Ouch. That doesn't sound pleasant, to say the least. If you don't mind my asking, are you getting the missing tooth replaced? When it rains it pours, ugh. I hope you feel better soon.
I'm not sure yet, honestly. I went to a dentist a few weeks ago and he referred me to a periodontist, who I will be seeing tomorrow. I have some deep gum pockets and some bone loss so I'm not sure what the periodontist will tell me tomorrow. I'm a wreck but trying not to be. :)
Oh, ouch, that sounds horrible. I hope they can find out what's wrong!
As far as my missing tooth goes... Nah, I'm not replacing it. I have two that have been pulled. Eventually I will have them all pulled and I'll get dentures (and probably get them screwed in). :/ It sucks, but there's nothing else I can do.
