I had a dentist appointment yesterday. My 2 bottom front teeth are loose 😦 So I have choices. I can have them all pulled which is what I thought I would need or I might need a root canal but he isn’t sure yet. Both of these options would mean going to a specialist. One that specializes in cancer patients because of the risk of infection. I can have a brace put on the back of my teeth, but it wouldn’t be stable. For now, he ground down the top of the tooth that might need the root canal so it doesn’t bang against my upper denture and we wait and see if the nerve calms down so I don’t need a root canal. And the choice? Option 4. Wait and see if they get worse or if they are good enough to last a while. he liked this choice too. It’s much safer for me.
What I would have once considered to be “normal” every day things are turning out to be complicated now.
