On a fun note, they have some battery powered drills now.It’s been 20 years since a root canal but I can still remember that sawing sound.![]()
That sounds like an extraction, not a root canal. I had a wisdom tooth removed with what looked like stainless steel pliers and I had pizza that night.I had it done in the chair.
One week one side and then the other the next.
First side was easy.
Shot/5 minutes to take effect/20 minutes for both extractions/out the door in less than an hour.
Other side...
The top one was a repeat of the first 2.
The bottom one was badly impacted.
You know you're in trouble when the assistant has that look in her eye.
Then he started cancelling appointments.
Hammer and chisel went to work. Pulling splinters with plyers.
Pain killer wearing off.
Finally, over 2 hours later it was done.
I was scheduled to go to work that evening.
I missed the next 2 shifts.
Actually my jaw joint hurt worse than the tooth.
Took a good two weeks to get over it.
don't know why I just took it as a wisdom tooth procedure the first time I readed it.On Friday I bought a quadruple root canal.![]()
Both can be fun!don't know why I just took it as a wisdom tooth procedure the first time I readed it.![]()
Man don't you hate equipment failure, especially new equipment, when you have work to get done.Bought and picked up a lane shark yesterday, had the C-Flow kit installed.
Sure looked good, but it lasted about 10 minutes before the pump apparently let go.
It's currently a spendy green paperweight.
They'll come pick it up Tuesday, but we had plans for it all this long weekend!

As a property manager I was threatened that I'm a dead man and I won't see it coming and to say my goodbyes.
Immediately went to the desk of the Oakland police department to file a report with the renters file in hand... date of birth, name, past addresses, etc.
Officer refused to take report saying freedom of speech so no crime committed.
It was eye opening for me learning in my city threats of death mean nothing to law enforcement.
The man that made the threat died from an overdose a few months later...
