The Tooth

Here's my story for the day...FYI, kinda gross...
During the summer of 07' I had to have a root canal done while we were visiting in Albuquerque...Since then, i've had a crown put on it, like you should...(which by the way costs lots of money..) Anyway. Had the crown put on and for a couple months i've had this sore around it...welp, went to the dentist today about the sore, turns out, there's an infection up in my gums and the sore is the infection protruding out...gross, i know. so to fix it...they can either 1.Take the tooth out, which i'd rather not do. or 2.Have them cut up into my gums, drain the infection and then replace the space with superficial bone. yeah it sucks, and again very expensive. SO! as I would rather not be toothless, i've opted for option #2. Wish me luck!!! and Grandpa Mac....watch your root canals!!! It seems our teeth have sympathy pains for each other or something! haha...so if you start getting a sore, you have me to thank ;)
