2nd RCT

As scheduled, I undergone my 2nd round of Root Canal Treatment last Saturday. This round I could feel the acute pain the moment the dental files penetrating deep down within. If not my dentist apply some more anesthetic, I would definitely cry out when he used that hard files to poke and scratch around removing and cleaning the root canals. But I sweated around my forehead. Ughhh ...... I was worried as hell! My jaw was also sored afterwards from having my mouth stayed open for an hour plus.


And the
GOOD ? news is that, due to some complications - it seemed that the inner part of one of my root canal had somehow solidified - my poor dentist was unable to dig and clean it out thoroughly, but to apply medicine, cover the tooth with temporary filling., and wait and see. Meaning ..... I have to go for one more round of the treatment this coming Saturday. Oh gosh ! I just wish this will be the last round. No more drilling, digging, poking, scratching, whatever .....It is truly scary when you come to think about it.

To enlighten you, youtube has a very good and simple
video introducing RCT. ^_^;
