So this morning the root canal office person called and said they had an appointment available at 3PM (I had asked to be informed if they had a cancellation).
I must say I was shaking a little bit when I showed up.
The staff were knowledgeable and efficient and had good 'bedside manner'.
The endodontist was very good at setting me at ease and explaining stuff and answering questions.
I joked with him that this was not on my 'bucket list'.
There was very little pain, but the smells and sounds were something else.
I have a previous appointment with dentist for cleaning on Friday.
Have a follow-up appointment with endo for next week; then need appointment with dentist to put on crown.
Tooth #13; took about an hour; $935 (paid half, pay other half in two months); bought extra-strength Tylenol and some ibuprofen, as recommended, haven't needed them.
I'm in no pain whatsoever.
