I chipped a molar years ago and let it go. Well, it caught up with me this weekend when it became abscessed. My face became swollen on the left side and I looked like a friggin chipmunk. It hurt like HELL. It felt like I had something inflating inside my upper jaw.

I finally went in today to have it removed this morning and DAMN. It was all rotted and corroded away so the dentist had to take it out in pieces. I saw it on the tray and it had some nasty puss looking glob at the roots, guess that was the abscess, itself.

After the numbing shots wore off, I felt the worst pain I have ever felt in my life.
It was unbelievable how bad it hurt. Looking at light made it worse. It was BAD, I cant even put into words this pain. Thank God almighty I got a buddy wuth a pharmacist friend that got me some strong ass norco cause all the dentist gave me was tylenol 3 and that wanst cutting it.

It still hurts some but that pressure from the inside pain is finally gone.

If you chip a tooth, take care or it or pay the price like I did today.

I will never let a tooth get that bad again.
