I'm back & have been in"dental hell" this morn. He never was able to get completely deadened, worked for 1 solid hr. then tells me I have an extra root & channel in there not common to (more)
to that particular tooth. Inflammation in there & he put meds in closed temporarily & told me to come back in 9 days & he will "try to finish it up". In the meantime, " if pain becomes unbearable to call him". I can hardly get my mouth open (which my hubby would probably say is a good thing) LOL use straws on the good side of my mouth, & rinse with warm salty water. Waaaaah! I woulld like to just lie down & cry but then my head would hurt also. Keep praying for me dear cutes, I simply have to be a big girl & quit this whimpering. Love u guys Lillian

Lillian, I am a bit late on this one but I do hope you are feeling better today! I need to have alot of dental work done but first things first. I have got to get my legs well and healthy before I can afford to start on something else. The dentist is my least favorite place to have to go! Hugs, Linda
6847 Lilian, I hope the salt water works wonders and you don't have to phone him for unbearable pain! Hugs, martine
42363 Lillian, have had many done lol,but you
should not be in much pain now. think you
might need antibiotics to get inflamation
down first.so do ring him if not better, I
now worry about you.
Please let us know how you got on and if
you are feeling b etter. Hugs Edith

The endo called me himself this morning to see huow I was. I told him face swollen badly, can't open mouth very wide, but pain is better, still there but I am better cause I with the help of a darvocet & heating pad slept 4 hrs. last night. thank u edith *
24236 Oh no. I am so sorry that you are one of the people where the root canal is more complicated. I had 3 in my life. 2 of them were absolutely no problem and one was hell. I will pray that the meds calm down the inflammation and that you will feel better really soon.
8708 Lillian, I am so sorry to hear you are
still not finished with this tooth problem,
you have all my sympathy, bacause I think
toothache (any toothproblems) are the
worst.
Pray for you, and try to keep that sunny
side up.
Hugs and God bless
Marietta
7817 Oh you poor thing, like many I am not too keen on visiting the dentist. Keep on the wimpering there are loads of us listening and feeling for you. Have flower
8776 Lillian, you poor dear - I hope that they can finish it up - on the next visit. Keep that warm salty water up - that is the key to get rid of any infections.

Shirlene I think after all of this is over I deserve another machine, don't you? Problem is there'll be no money left.

7742 Lilian I'm so sorry to hear about your painful treatment. I can imagine your pain. But as you say, be a big girl and one day it is over. I will think of you these days.

Thank U Iris. With the help of Darvocet & a heating pad I finally got a few hrs. sleep last night. *
38031 Dear Lillian, you are still in my thoughts and prayers for speedy recovering. Love,Yoriko
53539 I feel for you Lillian. I work as a Dental
Receptionist and we have root fillings
every day. They can be nasty little
devils! I do hope the tooth settles down.
It sounds like it needs a few days to
recover from the swelling associated with
the digging around.
Good luck and I'll keep you in my
prayers. Love and blessings Chris
11327 Sorry Lillian you are still in pain. Will continue to lift you up in prayer. Judy
1221 any wonder you were in so much pain before
you went to him...and oh no 9 more days...I
would give it 3-4 days and ring and get it
over and done with if that suits...
hang in there darlin' can sympathize
with you. hugs kerry...
11159 I'm so sorry he wasn't able to take care of it today. I can't imagine 9 more days. I had a double root canal on both of my eye teeth many many years ago. I was in the chair for more than 4 hrs. and had the opposite problem from you. I had my mouth propped open with that black rubber block for so long that I couldn't close it for several hours after the procedure. I looked a total fool driving home with my mouth hanging open. I do not envy you the wait. You have all my sympathy and prayers that these next 9 days pass very quickly for you.
