Quix - what's going on with your tooth? (Just read about something that sounds like what I have right now in the 1800s of the thread here).

I had 3 'cracked' molars repaired 3 weeks ago with this nifty "CEREC" (Chairside Economical Restoration or something like that, where they make a new, porcelain filling [instead of a crown] with a CAD system), and am still suffering 3 weeks later (still can't chew on that side without pain). Had lots of meds (including steroids to get the 'pulp' of the tooth to unswell). Getting REALLY tired of it! Been back 3 times now for "bite adjustment" since the new teeth were not shaped entirely correctly and I kept slamming them into the teeth below when chewing. (Let me tell ya..that hurts - a LOT).

Don't want to do the dreaded "root canal" thing - cost and pain both..but, I'm wondering if I'll EVER get better at this point..(Doc says "it might hurt that way for a couple of months"..oh, GREAT!)

What's going on with your situation over there?

What's the latest on the fruit stand in NY? I'm hearing rumblings of muslims being conspicuous by their absence.
