I had a tooth start hurting about two weeks ago. I’ll be honest and say I don’t have a regular dentist. I wish I could say it was because of finances but it isn’t. I’m just a total coward when it comes to dentists. When I went to see him, he did an x-ray then […]
Why Can’t I Just Extract the Tooth?
I don’t like going to the dentist, but I’ve had the worst toothache with the fourth tooth from my front tooth. I went in and wanted him to just knock me out and take out the tooth, but he said he wants to do a root canal treatment and a crown. That’s way more dental […]
