my teeth are rebelling. this is nothing new; the whole thing started in february with a funny spot on the back of my front tooth. i had a root canal, and all seemed to be fine. not so much.
my tooth has been aching intermittently for the last month or so. i have a pretty high tolerance for pain, so i didn't really notice it. around the first of the month, the pain became more increasing, and i noticed that my teeth weren't so straight anymore. the tooth that had had the root canal was dropping - it's slipping out of its socket. since last wednesday, i've been in pretty much constant pain, popping ibuprofen every 4 hours. last night and the night before, the pain has awoken me. it's bad news!
i'm going to see the endodontist around noon. he's going to look at the x-ray and tell me it's time for my tooth to come out. which means a flipper with a fake tooth at a minimum and another implant second. awesome.
