Has anybody had a root canal?
Has anybody had a root canal?
I just learnt a sore tooth of mine is caused by my tooth root never fully closing (due to getting braces and shifting my teeth around). Now at 30 I need a root canal.
I’ve never even had a cavity before. I’m legit terrified. Teeth are the one thing that are much worse than nails on chalkboard for me.
How was your experience been? Any words of advice or words of encouragement? I could use it :(

Yep, mine got infected on a trip the usa, food hygiene there isn't what I'm used to. I was considering ripping my own teeth out, over the counter pain killers didn't help one bit.
It was a horrible experience
Wtf were you eating that led to the need for a root canal?
I had a lot of different stuff that vacation to the us, most of it absolutely garbage compared to what I'm used to. But unfortunately that was all that was available there.
Safe to say I'm bringing a bunch of protein shakes next time I'm there
Garbage is not all that's available here, there are plenty of healthy choices everywhere. You just have to stay away from the fast food peddlers, which includes "fine dining" chain restaurants.
There's a reason I said 'compared to'
That sounds horrible! How did you resolve it?
I called my dentist, and got my appointment scheduled to the next morning
