    Just make sure the mongrel gives you the happy gas when you are in the chair though...at a few hundred bucks an hour you might as well be stoned out of your tree during it.

    Yeah, this is my 4th - and I've never ever had trouble between visits. Fri was my 2nd visit of 3 for this tooth - and man, am I hurting. Hopefully, the swelling and throbbing will stop soon. My wife hates me, I am not a nice person when I'm sick - but then, what husbands are? lol3.gif

    Major bummer. I've been there. But the vicodin and vallium have always worked as advertised for me.

    Here's an idea, a special brand of lens cleaner might ease the pain.

    Andy!!! Do not mess around with this!!!!!!!
    I am telling you from experience - a bad one.
    There should be no pain in that tooth because the nerve (root) has been removed. Now if he did crown lengthening, that will hurt. But I repeat do not mess around with this. This exact scenario is what landed me in surgery.

    I had a root canal on a molar. It never stopped hurting. Vicodin, Percoset, none of it even touched it. Finally they gave me Demorol. By the time they figured out what was going on infection had spread to my ears and sinus. I was dizzy and could not stand. Practically falling down on any movement. I was one very sick puppy.
    Get on some strong antibiotics NOW.

    End result for me - about $10,000 total (thank God for insurance), lost the tooth anyway, partial hearing loss (dont' know if it all will come back), still dizzy anytime I move (not as bad as days go on), some skinned knees and elbows from a fall and I can't hardly do anything for fear of falling. Too scared to even go out with my camera. I might fall and break it.:D

    Do not mess around here.

    Antibiotics are indeed an excellent suggestion. As a matter of fact, I had to suggest to this dentist myself that i wanted antibiotics during the 3-day procedure when i realized that it shouoldnt have hurt so much. that said, let me just say that I highly continue to recommend "this" endodentist.

    A TRUE STORY !

    when i saw dr. rubin last month for my root canal... i actually was thinking about you before i even knew that u used him. remember when you went to the "islands" - u ended up selling the resort pictures ( taken from the resort itself ) , well when i was in dr. rubins exam room, i noticed that he has a great wall to look at but it has no pictures on it... except of a poster about root canal treatment - that's what you stare at when you're having the procedure.... i suggested to him that I knew a great photographer who could recommend "sell " him great prints... he didnt like that idea very much

    maybe that's why he hurt you.... ne_nau.gif

    Actually I believe before any dental procedure like this, you should be on a round of antibiotics if there is any hint of infection, swelling or pain. There is too great of chance of infection and it spreading to your heart muscle. I have always been given a script for antibiotics days before both my root canals. 1st went ok, 2nd one went terribly wrong.

    Damn, I'm really worried about Andy now.

    lol. i should have figured that!!! rolleyes1.gif

    could help offset the price of those "expensive" RCTs....
