I have some questions about
What is going to be a molar extraction - full extraction.
This molar has been on a 'watch' list since forever?
Well, last week I was sent to see an 'endodontist' to see if the tooth could be saved. Apparently not. The root is being 'resorbed' into the jaw?
From all I gather, it seems as if part of the jaw will have to go as well. Obviously like most of us, my normal reaction is that I am not looking forward to this all.
Experience folks one and all - my question is.....What can/should I expect out of this experience? Aside from a hole and sore gum where a tooth used to be?
Oh, not to mention that eating nuts will probably be a no-no for quite a while... Thanks ahead of time! - j
