    Phone a dentist for a quote to remove the bad tooth. The shock of the bill will make you forget how much pain you're in.

    nah...

    what you need is an ice skate. You put it on the tooth and hit the other end with a rock.



    WILSON!

    I had the same problem last month, raging, absolutely raging toothache, phoned the dentist and got straight in, after an X-Ray he gave me the good news, its coming out, and the bad news, the cost.
    So after 2 injections with the biggest needles and syringes I have ever seen, and 30 minutes of tugging, crunching and sweating along with the usual blood and guts, in went 4 stitches, the poor girl helper almost passed out bless.

    Now feeling much better thanks, so do yourself a favour, dont delay, get yerself sorted.

    Enjoy

    ...thanks all...my dentist, who is also a cyclist God bless him, has given me some mega pain killers and antibiotics. Once ths infection is cleared it's root canal treatment. Best of all it doesn't hurt anymore...

    Ah the old root canal, now they are proper tear jerkers, time to man up, so you say your dentist is your friend, so was mine. Atb

    solution - tie a string round your tooth - tie a string round a door handle - shut the door - right now its closed just shut the F*ck up, :D
    The dissenter is every human being at those moments of his life when he resigns
    momentarily from the herd and thinks for himself.

    I've had the root canal treatment on a back molar. Dentist was brilliant, didn't feel a thing throughout but the bill was feckin' EPIC (over 2k). Mind you, that included the gold crown that went on the bit that was left. It was very weird looking up at the dentist who was looking down at my tooth through what appeared to be a microscope. Those bendy drill bits that they dig out your nerve endings with are truly impressive, he had to go 17mm below the gum line to get all my nerve bits out according to the x-ray shots.

    Get the tooth sorted out, the last thing you want is an abscess followed by total tooth removal.

    What do I ride? Now that's an Enigma!

    Rest an Asprin on the tooth. Instant pain relief. Then go and bend over at the Dentist :lol:
