How much for a root canal?

[C DM]

are the back teeth the very back teeth?
can you do w/o them?

consider geeting the 2 teeth pulled. The procedure is simpler, heals faster than a root canal

Sounds like it was all taken care of close to 14 years ago at this point.

today i went to the dentist. a very disappointing trip: the dentist won't sort out my dodgy veneer on the nhs and i need a filling.

but something funny did happen. the dental nurse was filling in my records and she asked if i was on medication.

nurse: what medication do you take?
Me: fluoxetine
nurse: what's that for?
Me: um...depression
nurse: oh you're a bit young for that aren't you?
Me: um...
nurse: ...for high blood pressue.
Me: no, not high blood pressure. DEPRESSION.
dentist (entering room): well, you're a bit young for that, too.

oh right! i didn't realise that there was some kind of age i had to reach before i'm allowed to wallow in the depths of hell!
