I’m on the other side of a root canal and tentative reconstruction of the other broken tooth. They’re still sensitive, but MAN!!!! I’m so happy to have done it. The dentists I’ve been seeing are very kind, and they pay close attention to my pain. There’s some weird shit where even after they numb the shit out of me, I can still feel a lot of what they’re doing, so I’ve been shelling out for the laughing gas to sort of numb myself to it. It still really fucking hurts but it helps me concentrate on, well. Not that.
