Too Much Information

Yeah, I just had a filling replaced last month that had gotten decay underneath. The dentist was going to fix a small cavity at the edge of an old filling. Once he got to drilling, he had to pull the old filling and ended up having to redo about half the tooth! Fortunately a root canal had been done on that tooth as part of the original restoration.

Get it fixed soon, or you will end up paying a lot more for it later, both in $$$ and pain. Sorry about the tooth.

This happened to me earlier this year. I was just having a day when all of a sudden I realized I had a hard chunk of something rattling around in my mouth. I spat it into my hand and it was a BB-sized piece of tooth (so I thought). I figured I'd broken a tooth sparring (although I always wear a mouth guard) and was cautiously happy it didn't hurt. I made an emergency appointment with my dentist who had a look at the piece of "tooth" (which I'd stuck in a baggie for safe keeping) then looked in my mouth and smiled.
"Nope, just an old filling".
I had no idea they dug so much out of your teeth when filling them.

well to make matters worse for my DAY the internet was working fine at 520 and then i leave the computer to go make some dinner before mr h comes home and about 7 o'clock last night he gets on his computer and asks...how long has the internet been down.....i said WHAT!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!? it was fine at 520 before i made supper...so mr h did not get to read any posts and wasn't a happy camper last night and ended up fallin asleep on the couch because i'm sure he was bored and didn't want to watch american idol (GOOO BEATBOX) lol......so then i get on this morning stupid FUCKING SHIT IS STILL FUCKING DOWN (excuse my caps) so then i get dressed get kids dressed and go to the grocery store for a few things get the kids some freakin donuts to keep them quiet for when i get back home and call att tech support

Milt had a tooth go south on him a few years back. He had lost a filling and didn't say anything about it because he was scared to go to the dentist. They were on a motorcycle trip in the Black Hills when it went totally haywire on him. His Mrs dragged him into a dentist down there kicking and screaming like a little girl. She said he was so scared he was farting in the dentist chair. Of course Milt denies it but the way she rolls her head back and cackles when she tells the story I know it is true. Anyway that tooth was so severely impacted they would not even work on it. They just gave him some antibiotics and some pain pills to get the swelling down and keep him sane until then. Only he could not take the pain pills because he had to ride his bike all the way home. Then once he got home he still had to go to the dentist and get a root canal. That opened up another can of worms because they noticed other stuff while they were rooting around in there. He ended up spending a wad of money on getting his mouth back in shape. All because he was not taking care of business when it needed taking care of.
