Toothache
Today finally went to see the dentist in the camp as I already book an appointment on mon. So I thought that only tooth decay so just require to remove the decay part and do the filling, but when the dentist further exam-in, he found out that mostly is not the tooth decay causing it to have the toothache. He found out that my last tooth got abit weird when the show the x-ray. What he found out is that my last tooth, in the centre have a crack line. He suspect that this the real reason that causes to have the pain.
Coz the bateria might have slip into the tooth through the crack line and he wanted to further exam-in on this coming mon as he will drill the hole and check whether the crack is it goes into the centre of the tooth. In the worst case, I might lose this tooth.
He also mention that if remove the tooth, i have 3 options.
1) Just leave it nothing but might feel uncomfortable in the beginning...sound werid to me
2) Inplant another tooth that might cost >$1K...sweat again...
3) a denture...very silly coz just only 1 tooth...
If the tooth can be save, i will have 2 options
1) Root canal...in the future it might drop off due to the grinding...
2) Root canal and crown...best way to protect the tooth...
Well, I really dunno how...just hoping the best and pray that my tooth can be save...
