Last time I posted here about getting a root canal,it going smoothly,and that I shouldn't have worried so much over it.Today,I went in to the dentist as an emergency visit because the last tooth that needed to come out was bothering me really bad.I went in,he looked around,took an x-ray and gave me the option of pulling it right there and then,or holding off till after the holiday weekend.I was tired of taking so much tylenol and just wanted a good nights sleep....so I said go ahead.

It was nothing!!! The nitrous helped me relax,and before I knew it,he was done.I did feel the pulling(no pain,just a tugging feeling),and I could hear it being pulled away from the bone,but it was over so fast,I even gave a nervous,but relieved chuckle when he said it was out.He even mentioned that I was getting better at this...because the first time he did work on my teeth,I had someone bring me so I could take something before hand....and this time,I took nothing.

All these years I've worried myself sick and dealt with the pain from my teeth.I am so glad to have found this dentist :respect:
