  • Crown and Root Canal

    One of my fillings I had since a kid fractured last week so I went to dentist today thinking they could just fix it right up. Turns out, under the filling a cavity formed that for some reason I cannot not feel at all, no pain or anything. I can't see it either so I had absolutely no idea it was there. Anyway, it's been there awhile I guess and I need a root canal and a crown. Best part, insurance covers not 1 penny of it. lol. Insurance would cover basic cleaning and fillings but not crown and root canal. Fuck sake. Price for 1 tooth... $1750. Mother fuckers.

    Wonder if I shoot enough GH into my gum around the tooth if it will heal itself? :D

      Serious question though you guys think they are bullshitting me? Shouldn't I feel some kind of pain if the problem is so bad I need a root canal? I have no pain or swelling or anything?

        I would get a second opinion,, but I wouldn't wait until the pain starts to get it fixed.

                Pull the fuckin tooth. I had a crown and root canal a long time ago and it was nothing but problems for years. Constantly getting food stuck between there, the Crown would come off, chip, get replaced etc. It got to the point where the root fractured and was infected but I had no pain. Had to have it removed right around the time I got laid off last year. Of course they want an implant put in but that shit is a few thousand dollars. Fuck that, I don't miss the issues.
