The Forsythe front tooth saga continues. Yesterday afternoon the dentist numbed me with a big needle and then scraped, filed and sluiced my root canal. Apart from the injections I didn't feel a thing. He drilled a hole in the back of my front tooth to gain entry to the nerves and then filled it with something temporary. Very temporary as it turns out because once the anaesthetic had worn off I ate a sandwich and the swallowed the filling (and I don't mean the sandwich filling). So here I am at home waiting for the dentist to open at 9am so I can shout at him and have something a bit more substantial and sticky stuffed into my hole.
