is the tooth/filling old enough that you might have had a root canal and forgotten? it is unusual, although not unheard of, for teeth that are still alive to break. once you have the RC, that's when they start getting brittle.
I have had three teeth break, all had RCs. now I have nightmares about it.

the nyu college of dentistry might be cheaper than a regular dentist
― mookieproof, Thursday, 26 February 2009 19:05 (fifteen years ago) link
I have had one root canal. It was totally painless and I got no painkillers for it afterward.
Coincidentally, I had to visit the dentist this morning. She wanted to get a better xray of the area under my gold tooth. There's a dark spot under the roots. She said it could be scar tissue from the root canal (best case) or a cyst or an abscess. I had the root canal 4 years ago, so I'm hoping it's scar tissue. If it gets worse, they may have to redo the root canal or if it gets really bad, operate. For the time being, she's just going to xray it once a year.

i wish this would allow me to get an awesome grill or something.
anyway, he says the filling broke, and then broke the tooth. he thought we might be able to do an onlay, which is slightly cheaper than a crown, but after looking at x-ray said i should put a new filling in or get a crown. since a crown lasts longer and i'm not really feeling too great about weird fillings, i am getting a crown. he drilled out the old filling and put on a temp crown for now. gotta get the rest done in a series of visits (impressions, then after the crown is made, the application).ugh. so much $$$.

on the lol side of things, this dentist likes his ipod and was playing wilco while drilling away at my tooth, and asked me about my musical tastes. he was pretty nice. he also said if i have like, a decent portion paid by the time we finish this process i can do the rest in monthly installments.

it was also weird watching it all unfold in reflection on the dude's glasses. i don't remember that from before, but i was very relieved that they didn't have any of those stressed cat 'hang in there' posters on the ceiling.

my temp crown fell off!i left my dentist a message but i don't know what to do.
i don't go to the dentist often, but i have been blessed witha near-perfect mouth-- for my entire life, i've brushed once a day, i've never flossed, and yet i've never had a cavity and my teeth are straight. except for the horrors of my impacted wisdom teeth (i looked like a woodland animal cartoon for a week), no problems. ever.
so weird.

Trust me, it's never too late to start having problems. I was the same for many years until one day I woke up with nasty intermittent pain in a back molar. The tooth was a mess of rot; when I got to a dentist, he took an impression, sawed it off and I was root canal'd in a hour, gold toof'd in a few days.
― Suggestbandium (libcrypt), Monday, 2 March 2009 01:26 (fifteen years ago) link
i just got back from a check up and everything is perfect.
Does anyone here use a soniccare? pp bought me one in dec (by request) and i cant keep that thing in my mouth for more than 10 seconds because it tickles so much. Its hard to brush your teeth while you are laughing.

my housemate once marched into his dentist's and demanded his broken tooth be fixed despite the fact that he had no money or insurance coverage.
it worked an' all.

my new toothbrush tickles the sides of my tongue. it's a little distracting but i've learned to combat it by adopting a 'dog with head out the car window' expression while brushing. now my girlfriend can't watch me brush my teeth without laughing, but that's her problem i guess.

they called and said i could come in today and have the temp put back on, or i could just wait til monday. they did not seem to care. lol!

My temp crown came off too. Just don't eat there.
― Suggestbandium (libcrypt), Monday, 2 March 2009 18:21 (fifteen years ago) link
yeah. i think it is v sensitive bc of nerve exposure after the drilling down and by gum feels a lil swollen. i will power through it, though!

after my last visit to the dentist (first time in almost four years), i resolved to floss every day until my next checkup. i can't wait for my triumphant return in June... unless dude is all "yo, you really need to be flossing" at which point i will lol and then punch him in the nose.

I'd like to have all my teeth extracted and replaced with some sort of titanium/polymer non-corrosive, basically indestructible set. I would just give them a daily rinse and not have to worry about setting foot into a dentist's office ever again.

Urrgh. I havent been to the dentist since 1993 (yeah. I know. Shuddup). My teeth are generally fine - I dont eat sugary foods at all, brush regular, etc etc
Recently: bad bad BAD tinnitus, worse than usual (I always have it but this is shitting me to tears), an ache in the left side of my jaw and shoulder. What feels like a nagging canker sore in the space where my wisdom tooth was that I've realised has come and gone for... ages.
I suppose I should get it seen to but now I'm worried I've got mouth cancer or something horrible.

youve probably got an infection under the gum. all they do is get in there, shove some medicine of some sort in, give you antibiotics and send you on your way
