Guest guest Posted January 22, 2008 Report Share Posted January 22, 2008 Margaret, I am so sorry about your teeth bothering you. My teeth went to hell when I turned 40! Most of my back teeth are gone. I had an abscess on one of my front teeth and kept trying to tell the so called dentist that there was something wrong. I had gone thru a whole bottle of Vicodin as the pain wqas so bad. I finally started getting a sore on the outside of the tooth that was bad. I was also babysitting at the time, and I was playing with Dana and she happened to hit me right in the spot where it was bothering me. Poor baby I let out a scream that had to have scared her to death! Made a dentist appointment for later that day. He finally bellieved me after seeing that I was getting a sore on the outside of my mouth. So he did his work and it took forever for the pain to just be relieved. Come to find out when he had been worj=king on that front tooth he had gotten the drill too hot. That is what caused the abcess in the first place and then he had the gall that I was a drug addict as I had taken all of my pain meds over the weekend but I had no choice as I had a big todo going on that I had worked very hard to put together. I belonged to the Jaycees and I was a VP and the money we were going to raise was for the handicapped kids camp. I did turn that dentist to the dentistry board and we just never went back. sorry got too long winded I am still trying to get used to the thoughtof being a grandma it scares me but it excites me in the same token. Plus I get to see them get some of the naughty times back from their children and then remember what we went thru! LOL I try to stay away from dentists as much as possible. Hi Lori, Have you adjusted yet to the idea of becoming a grandma? It's really lots of fun and the parents get all the work. As it should be - we've been through it all. I'm doing o.k. considering that I had to have a tooth pulled today. Seems as if the root canals i had about 11 years ago are developing abscesses. This is the second one! The surgeon tried to save it last September with a very very expensive procedure but it kept getting infected so had to come out. Surprisingly I'm feeling no pain - guess the pressure on it is off now. I fell asleep around 5 p.m. and my collie woke me up at 8 p.m. No wonder I feel good.
