Some 20 years ago a dentist told me one of my teeth showed signs of cracking and that it’s going to need a root canal and crown very soon. He wanted to schedule it.

Fast forward two decades and two other dentists and that tooth is still there, still fine.

A dentist told me nearly all my molars were subject to cracking and would need crowns soon. Sure enough, they did.

Mr mm and I have a new dentist who said the same thing about cracked teeth.

I actually believe him because the teeth do sometimes hurt when I floss them.

However, he also did not push to have it done. He said they could wait and he’d watch them.

I will not be getting ANY unnecessary work done for anything at all anyways. Too much risk of an adverse reaction on my part, and last time I had some minor surgery, I landed in the hospital for 13 days with a MRSA infection.

I’ll pass.
