Friday

After I got my braces off I had a long 4 1/2 hour trip to the dentist which I really hated. My ortho saw a problem with my cap my gum started to grow over a same section of the back of my tooth producing a small tiny black hole in my tooth in other words a cavity. (First one in my life.) They though it was little until they got to the center of my tooth and realized I had a black hole in side. They gave me three shots and sat me down for a long surgical procedure on my tooth. Then they told me in 6 weeks they will take my pulp cap off and provide the real seal only if the tooth has healed correctly and they placed a pope cap on it and said if it doesn't heal correctly I will be getting a root canal. So I am definitely scared since it was'n my fault the cap was blocking me from brushing my tooth in the back.

OH, wow, I am so sorry to hear that!!! Removing my braces wasn't the highlight of my years because the orthodontist pointed out various mistakes in my teeth and told me that in the future, I would to wear them again. I do hope that you don't get the root canal. Good luck
