Cracked tooth that crushed the nerve inside. Was in tears after hours of agony snd finally getting to see a dentist.

I’ve never been so excited for a root canal. I nearly fell asleep during the procedure because I was so relieved.

I would hesitate to wish tooth related pain on my worst enemy.

It is truly the worst.

And unlike many other injuries in/on the body there is very little you can do to relieve the pain.

And it can take ages to get seen. You'll call a dentist with an emergency and they'll schedule you a week later.

You can try to find an emergency dentist, but you'll pay 5x as much.

If you break an arm and need help the hospital will take care of it same day. If they have to wait a couple of days for surgery they'll drug you till you see God.

Dental care is stuck in the 1920s
