Bye Bye Toothdecay!!!

hi guys... just wanna share what happen to me yesterday...

i called up in the office and told them that i might be in half day because i have an appointment with the dentist. and they said ok. when i was at the clinic, my dentist told me that the reason i have this constant toothache is because i have a toothdecay and it must be remove immediately. so i have no other choice but to let the dentist do the job. i was so scared because that was my first time to have my tooth removed (considering that i'm now 20 years old) when the tooth was removed, i was so relieved that FINALLY, my toothache is now just history..
it is really true that when you have toothache, you can't really concentrate in all the things that you do. well now im ok and im happy that i can work properly now without worrying any toothache

 

Congratulations, but do you remember how your tooth started to decay?

 

hmmm... all can remember is that after i finished eating sweet beans (they are yummy ) my teeth started to hurt...

 

oh btw, thanks ForgottenCreature

 

It was not possible to do a root canal treatment?
It's always bad to loose teeth when you're so young :/

 

Root canals are not that good for your health - they are a good place for bacteria to live. From there they get carried all over through blood. Studies show corelation between having root canals and all kinds of health problems. You won't need root canals, or will need them much later in your life if you stay away from sweets and also from processed food

 

well, that's what my dentist advise me. actually he offered me two options. the first one was root canal and the second one is remove the badly decayed tooth.i really wanted root canal but its expensive. i choose to remove the tooth for it cost lesser...

 

really? hmmm... but why is it that root canal is more expensive than removing the tooth?

 

If you ask me i prefer a root canal treatment , it is more expensive because it is 4 or 5 sessions and needs fillings materials for root and crown .

 

yeah... that's what my dentist also told me. that it would take 4 to 5 sessions...

 

congrats...and i see you look a lot better now

 

Hey glad to hear that your feeling better! Sending Blessing Your Way....

 

Show me some of those studies please.
I'm a future dentist and never heard of anything like that...

 

You may spend much more in the future to replace that teeth... Or...You gonna miss it to chew food etc etc..

 

There is a book called "The price of root canals" by Weston Price - he was the leading expert in this area. I believe it was published by AMA. A few other books I don't remember titles unfortunately - it's been a few years since I looked into it

 

I've google that name but didn't find it...:/
I'm interested though...

Are you a dentist demosfen?

 

i think toothache brings a lot of disturbance in our daily life

 

I had a root canal last year. I had a toothache early this week on a different tooth, until I went in to the dentist and he hit the end of the tooth with a 'tooth hammer'. The pain has been gone ever since then!! I go back in Monday for them to re-test the nerves and I might have a Root canal....again, if the nerves are dead.

 

my dentist told me that there will be a tooth that'll grow in that same place where he removed the decayed tooth

 

yeah... you said it right...
