No Root filling after all.

So I been to the dentist and he believes the root filling might not be needed. Been having temporarily filling in the troubled toots for the last two weeks but appearantly it has been ok. So a huge filling it became instead. This saved me the best part of 900 pounds. A root filling is 400 and a crown on top around 600. Relieved. I hope this stays this way.

Bit sore now as the anaesthetics is wearing off. Still managed to eat something though ;) . Had some left over dinner from last night. Very Very carefully.

Yes ;) , lucky

I've had all sorts - root fillings, crowns, teeth out completely, and trust me a huge filling is the best outcome. It definitely feels weird for a few days, like there's something in your mouth that doesn't belong there, but then it all settles down. If it hurts, swill hot salt water round the area. Soon you'll forget it's even there. In the meantime you have my full sympathy :)
