WTF?

Let's see...I'll think I'll trade no pain and no problems for pain,
extra expense, and more problems.

If I'm going to end up with a root canal or crown, I think I will let
it happen by itself. I don't need a dentist to speed this process up.
Or for that matter, I may never have had a problem with this tooth to
being with until it was messed with.

I'm all for venting. Do you have a question?
