This past week I have had the most appaling toothache. I have a hole in that tooth ( the one after the canine that you can just about see when I smile ) which has been there for some time. It's never bothered me before, I think it's where a filling has come out.. I can't recall having a hole there.

Anyway, I have been to the dentist and I have to have a root canal treatment that is going to cost me £190!!!!!!!!!!! He said it was either that or have the tooth extracted!

NO Is the answer to that, besides you'd see the gap when I smile.

So, I'm having my root canal done tomorrow. I have to have the gas and air to keep my mind off the injection, I thrash around in the chair and panic otherwise. He did offer sedation, but I want to try and be brave about the needle..
