RooT CaNaL Follow-Up

ok, so my root canal is more or less completed. the dentist had put in the permanent filling w the top sealing off part being black, instead of white. reason being, if for any reason the root canal wasnt successful, it's easier to spot and remove the black filling instead of the white filling. uh-huh. 

anyway, now is to monitor and see if the pain comes back. if it doesnt, i can have the black filing removed to change it to a white one. umm. 

that's the x-ray done. yeh, looks like the filling has been done nicely, all the way to the bottom... yeah root canal..

hopefully so. no more pain plssss. 

that's $550 + medicine price + surgical equip + gst gone. all in all about $630 bucks for a root canal done. lucky no need to put a crown, else that'll be another $1k+ extra. woot! 

but ok lah, at least the consultation fees and x-rays were not charged separately. and the dentist has been following up personally, apping me now and then to make sure im ok. not bad to have a dentist in the contact list huh. 

anyway, toothache is really a nightmare. pls take care of your teeth, peeps.

oh, and on a side note, the dentist said my wisdom tooth is slanted, and it's just a matter of time before it will give me problem. 

wah, what foresight. 

haii, just wish me good luck ok. 

now my jaw is all sore again, all thanks to having to keep the mouth wide open for like 1hr.... 

grrrr.
