cavities

[Rising Phoenix]

I have three....one of them a big one....hadn't been to the dentist in 10 years....now I must pay, no root canals needed though so I guess I'm lucky. Still.... I've never had a cavity before :scared:

3. I was 43 before I had a cavity

it won't hurt a bit at least mine didn't, really.

4. thanks

I guess 30 years is a good time to go without a cavitiy.....I'm not afraid of needles so it shouldn't be that bad....

5. It isn't bad..

Just find a dentist that is down with Nitrous oxide.. My dentist gets me so fucked up I don't know what is going on. And bring a iPod or other music playing device. It helps if you can't hear anything. And trust me. The pain from getting them fixed is a fraction of the pain you will feel if you don't get them taken care of.

is a fraction of the pain your bank account will feel.

Had one done a few weeks ago. 125 clams! That was just the easy replacement of an old filling. It didn't count the crown and crown lengthening procedure for another tooth.

7. Well, you know what they say:

Be true to your teeth or they will be false to you. :7

Go nitrous and you won't be sorry. Trust me. :hug:
