ouch! (grossness warning)

so last night I had this bump inside my mouth on my gum right beside one of my back molars...i reach up with a curious finger, touch it, and it popped! It was like a huge blister or something. It doesn't hurt, but I looked in the mirror and found that my molar is cracked...this could be bad...i think i might need a root canal.

You should probably have that looked at...

owwww

I have a giant hole in my of my molars. The filling popped out like two years ago.

and it don't hurt! (unless I bite down on like a popcorn kernel...)

 

[BreakfastSurreal]

thank god it doesnt hurt...the dentist called me in some antibiotics today and im going in on thursday...hopefully i can get it taken care of and wont lose a tooth over it they might have to give me a root canal or something though and i heard those are paintful!

You just had to share it with us, now didnt you.

Do you have your wisdom teeth yet? Maybe it's one of them putting pressure on the molar. Fun, fun, fun.

nope ive had all of my wisdom teeth extracted about 5 years ago. It's probably just that my teeth are brittle now or something and i bit something too hard.

I feel for you, or to put it another way, with pun, I'm rooting for you!

(PS In Australia rooting = screwing).

Ouch!

I just went to the dentist yesterday, and found out I have to get all four of my wisdom teeth out. When I was sixteen they told me they would grow in fine, but apparently now there is absolutely no room. Lovely.

if you just have to get them pulled it isnt that bad...if they aren't grown in yet or if they are impacted (growing sideways) they they will have to put you under and cut them out...not to scare you or anything...but all 4 of mine hadnt grown in and were all growing sideways and so i had to get them cut out...WORST pain in my life after that surgery...it sucked.

Fabulous! Can't wait for the surgery!

My previous surgery experience is pretty good. I had my gall bladder out, and I was pretty much fine a few days later.
