[QUOTE="flutterby, post: 427933, member: 7083"] Every time something like this happens, I tell my mom I just want them taken out. I really don't. The idea of dentures horrifies me, especially at my age, but I'm so sick of it. It seems there is always something going on - fillings coming out, teeth breaking, another freaking root canal, etc. My mom freaks out every time I say that. She works in a dental office and has perfect teeth and all that. But, damnitall, there is enough money in my mouth to buy a nicely optioned luxury car. Ok. The dentist office just called me back. I *have* had a root canal on that tooth - which I thought I had. It's the once that abscessed before. So, what we are doing is a wait and see. My dentist is calling in an antibiotic to be on the safe side and I'm going to see if it gets worse. If it is abscessing, there will be no doubt within a few hours - as opposed to just trauma to the ligament from only being able to chew on that side. If it is abscessing, I have to go back to the endodontist that did the original root canal. Keep your fingers crossed for me if you are so inclined. Thanks! [/QUOTE]
