Fun and games at the dentist

I was scheduled to have a root canal today. Instead, they called me and asked me to come earlier for a consultation with a periodontist. The periodontist said that the tooth should come out instead of having a root canal.

So, okay. I made an appointment in three weeks with the oral surgeon. Meanwhile, my tooth is killing me. Oddly enough, brushing my teeth helps. (I'm brushing them about 20 times a day.) Hot food helps. But it's going to be a LONG wait until I get the thing out.

I'm going to the dentist tomorrow. I've been using ground clove that I just..stick in there. heh. I had to have some sleep. I found a product that is essentially concentrated clove oil, and some other things. It works well, but it is..intense. Apparently some people on the internet agree. heh. My brain doesn't wanna do a link right now. I hope copy and paste is okay.

I got mine at a Walgreens. I think if You can find some clove oil somewhere it will work just as good or better. Good luck.
