Dental Problems

I've never had a cavity and my wisdom teeth are growing in straight and with plenty of room. That being said, when I was about 12, I had a cyst grow over one of my molars (a baby tooth still), which had to be removed and the new tooth subsequently dragged out of my gums with a series of brace harnessed pullies. After the whole thing finished, I had this strange, oral cast for a few weeks, which eventually dissolved. I had to rinse my mouth with a special antibacterial agent for several weeks as well, which was less than pleasant.

My mom has had root canals in the majority of her teeth. She brushes regularly now, but didn't see the dentist as a child until the age of 14 due to the constraints of rural living, which left her teeth pretty weak. She probably has a root canal about once a year. It has gotten to the point where she can get a root canal without anesthetic. It's not something I can understand in any way.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
