Sorry to hear this. It's horrid. I hope you get to feeling better and that the dental work goes well. It's no fun.

Yes sorry, you are suffering. Sometimes a tooth can really be terribly painful.

Good Afternoon
Annicita, thank goodness you were able to get into the dentist. I just had a new cap put on my tooth and an old filling replaced and it was very expensive. I have to get a tooth pulled soon. I wish you the very best.

Well the dentist wanted me to go for a checkup. I have been twice in the last year,
He said 4 crowns if the fillings fail I eat carefully and brush 4 times a day. The last crown I had was gold I cannot remember what it cost, but it was not much more expensive than the other one on offer. Gold has gone up in price so I shall have to wait for better times.

I'm sorry you're suffering - both the physical pain and the expense.
I think fear of the outrageous cost was why I used to avoid seeing the dentist - but if I'd kept up with the twice a year visits as I should have, I might have avoided gum disease and eventually the need for dentures. I hope it's all fixed and you're comfortable very soon.

Oh good. I am happy to hear that you are being treated.
That is one expensive dentist if all that you are treating is one tooth.
